You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I know in my earlier days I merely stalked, and remained a shadowy figure on the site but I can see some people have vast amounts postings but has anyone reached the 100K mark yet?
Give me maybe three more years.
I’ve been here forever and thought I posted way too much, but the stats don’t lie. I’m a lightweight.
Even TJ is sub 50,000, although that is his current incarnation.
I assume then, it starts from the 2009 (?) Great Hack?
No idea
I remember the good old days though, when the top ten per month were listed in the mag...
I haven't, but posting to check my numbers....
Edit: nah, never gonna happen. I joined in 2010 and am 49 so I doubt I'll ever get there.

Yeah, but thats not playing the game is it....
My username was "reset" a few years ago, but post-hack, otherwise my post count would be higher
I clocked that mine had gone to 20,000 a few days ago - guessing it must be post-hack so that'll be since December 2008. It would have been nice to celebrate this milestone with a meaningful post but it was probably something utterly unremarkable about tubeless tyres or the Vuelta.
Just checking
Update: not even close!
Will anyone surpass Cougar? (Deffo not me)
Mine is a ridiculous number, which I’m sure the various companies daft enough to employ me over the years would (rightfully) be absolutely appalled by 😃
Still some way off 100,000 though

In total? Or just in one thread?
(asking for Ernie 🙂 )

I'm vaguely embarrassed at my post count. Thank you cougar for being the one true master
(Which we dont now)
Don't forget there was also a Cougar2 for a while, officially sanctioned as part of the investigations into forum response times and general site slowness, who has approx 1300 posts to his name
I was so enthusiastic when I first discovered posting on the internet (here) and it was in my 30’s so I had a lot to say and a lot to be enthusiastic about.
Mostly stupid, mostly probably said before and - mostly stupid.
Enjoyed it all though and it came with some humbling moments, so as a result have a fondness for this place I had that platform to be a dick on, and was largely allowed to be.
But I do remember once seeing I’d said over ten thousand stupid things, and then later noticing a forum upgrade had pegged that number right back to a fraction, which I was grateful for inside.
I guess now I find out the truth.
Edit: bollocks
Not yet. I’ve got a ways to go for that number of posts. About a third of the way there.
Miles away, and I've been on here for years too
Not yet.

reallu surprised your number, even not taking into account your previous two usernames, isn’t higher.
Molgrips is around 90000 🤔.
Of to check the EV thread for confirmation....

Based on my current post rate, I may have to live for another 1,349 years to reach 100,000 posts. I doubt cutting out Hobnobs will get me there.

It was you wasn't it?
15 years and this is my 141 post so a long way from 100k 😂
Mine's quite high I think, but if its from 2008, that's only about 5 posts a day....Is that a lot?
I’ve got a ways to go for that number of posts.
Never mind the quantity CZ - feel the width
Molgrips is around 90000 🤔.
It’d be 10% of that if he hadn’t bought that Passat
I miss Mollies Passat 🙁

Started strong then tailed off.
Christ it seems to have taken me 15years to post what some do in 1😄
Is that a comment on your posting record or Mollie's Passat?
I thought it was a narrative on my sex life.

Previous two usernames?
A breakdown of threads posted on vs total number of posts would likely show that I spread myself thinly as opposed to posting repeatedly on some of those long-running (mainly political) threads
Is there a cultural aspect to these high post counts
Are the highest posters Scottish perchance ? It is often noted upon, that the Scottish people do wag their chins quite a bit.

Cougar, binners, tjagain?
My previous account has stopped at 54367, add that to my current 6600, it's up there with the higher numbers... but I'm nowhere near as posty as I used to be. He wasn't Scottish and neither am I.
if i still worked.... i would have.
but no.
I’m not Scottish and neither is my wife
