Fear not fellow forummers! For in the spirit of the old BFME2H post count threads, I would like to inform you that I have reached 10,000 posts!

Just for kicks, here is a random thread of mine.

Here is my first post count thread. (I'm pretty sure it is

I was very vain about it back then...I remember making approximately 50 posts per day at one point...)

Here is some advice from HG's most successful spammer on how to improve your postcount.

I have been planing this thread since mid-late 2008 when I was on track to reach 10,000 posts by late 2008/early 2009. Obviously that didn't happen.

Like the old postcount threads, I will give out opinions for all who ask. Additionally, you'll probably catch me reminiscing about HG quite a bit (assuming people still visit the Prancing Pony

I'm rather more worried about inactivity. I'd be crushed if the game went inactive or was boring.

All I would do is vote counts and night and day posts and stuff.

Basically you come up with the idea and design and I will maintain the game while you sit back and enjoy.

I like it, and you can help me balance the design and use your superior writing skills. I have an interesting idea or two

I don't even remember how many posts I have. In my n00b days post count was rather important to me.

TaylorFlame, BFME2H's resident warmonger! I remember you fondly. Your sense of humor and constant suggestion always entertained me. Additionally, you were an entertaining debater and an excellent writer (as evidenced by BFME2H's an WiCH's fan fics). I miss you and ol' Fighty (:P) jesting about war,

I think this is how quotes work O:

It's good to see you around. I'm surprisingly less war-orientated than I once was. I mean, I would still fight in a just one, but I've been getting involved in some heavy anti-war debates lately. I was young and naive and I am now less young and less naive. The system works. I do miss Mighty greatly though. Him and I formed a good duo I thought, remaining great friends despite our often opposing viewpoints, and never once fighting (outside of our games of Civilization IV; I don't think he ever forgave me for building a city named 'Mighty is Gay' in the middle of the mountain pass between our two empires that led to what was essentially a Cold War).

I did miss you guys.

But it's Quality, not quantity (says the 5th-highest poster on HG for all time, or something)

As the esteemed Jax once said, age before shit.

Every single one of my posts had a reason other than increasing my post count in mind when it was posted. Even the 23 post streak I made.

Though there is nothing wrong with celebrating a milestone, it should be encouraged (:

E-mail him or something, I'd love to see how he's doing nowadays.

I feel that if he wanted to leave the forum, I should respect his choice.

As much as I miss him, I don't think it would be right for me to email him out of the blue.

I don't know though. I may change my mind.

Hey Taylor, didn't you and Arvy talk to Mighty's sister via MSN once?

I seem to recall that happening.

@Taylor - there is a difference between getting in touch with an old friend and with telling him to come back to the forum, no?

In fact, even the likes of Ashrzr and Rot who've been posting elsewhere seem a little averse to coming back, despite repeated reminders.

One way to get this back might be to host our mafia here, Cat. I'm not too sure it would work though.

Sent like a dozen texts from within the blue recently; I'm starting to wonder if my phone doesn't work. At least, I hope that's why they aren't responding.

I'm not asking Mighty to come back. I'm not really back. I'm essentially dropping by temporarily before taking another extended absence once Uni starts.

I just don't want to intrude on whatever life he has now, I think. I know there is a number of people who really did want to get away from the forums, and leave it at that.

It was all about quanity at first with me. But it's been more and more about quality as time goes by.

I always tried to strike a balance between the two. If we're always seeking the perfect post, we never get anywhere. But at the same time... must. raise. postcount.
