I figured it would be fun to start a thread where people can laugh at reaching a posting mile stone, as well as keeping the main forums clear of such silly stuff, but I guess Paul being the order of the Platinum Anorak also doesn't like others to have fun [:p]

Keep clicking it back, not like I care, you have to sleep at some point :D

Unless the Mods fiddle with my scores, I think I'll be dead before I could get to 4000.
At least I'll have more time on my hands :)

Nope pink and blood shot match.

You need to see Paul for the anoraks, he is the keeper of the keys to the closet.

If I was in a bitchy mood I would also add that there is probably a VF award in that closet as well..but I am not so I won't [:w]

Carpal tunnel playing up, to many years of dealing cards and typing messages on here, every now and again it acts up, choice is either stick it in a cast for a week to help let the swelling go down or the doc's can go in and cut the nerve [n][V]

Were your posts in the OT section?
#156807 by preiffer

Posts in the OT section do not increase any post count.

Essentially, they are not adding direct value to the site's core aim (to be a resource for information on travel & flying, primarily focused on VS) by nature of the fact they are in an "Off Topic" forum.

As a separate issue - some members seem to have (on this, as well as many other forums) a strange need to increase their "post count"...

As one that doesn't understand this, an honest question - WHY does it matter? [:0][:?]


Not sure about others (and not directed at any individuals here), but I'd rather listen to someone who's made 100 USEFUL contributions to a site than someone who's posted 1,000's containing mostly incorrect information or drivel [:?]

did I miss reading the bit somewhere that off topic posts don't add to the counter?[:#]

Not necessarily a posting milestone but...

Today is exactly 1 year to the date since I signed up to V-Flyer!

Doesn't time fly! :D

Back OT for a sec...A milestone for me..it is now 4 months till my next vacation..meaning that I have gone almost 3 month since my last one..meaning 7 months between vacations....seeing as the longest I have gone in the last 2 years without a break to somewhere is 6 weeks...going 7 months is having a traumatizing effect on me [:#]

That's not trauma. Real trauma is when you realise the plastic won't stretch to UC and you have to console yourself with PE instead.

I'll just have to hang around the CH and plead with other passengers to be their friend for a while.
