Congrats. I just hit a 1,000 this weekend. I try to make sure most my posts are quality over quantity though. This has been a great place and I am glad I found it.

Why? Lots of people have 100 posts. It means nothing about your standing in the community. Anyone can come along and post dump until they hit an arbitrary number.

"A person is judged by the quality of what they say and not how much they say"
And that applies here too. Better 5 quality posts then 100 average/pointless ones.

Sorry? :Confused: I just thought that I could celebrate a little. So 5 years or so from now when I have 10,000 posts (Or so I hope :)) I can come back to this thread and have a little rememberance of when I first started here.

I'd say my posts were quality. I never replied to anybody unless I actually could help them out. Or if I had something to actually talk about. AKA I didn't spam post or anything of the sort.
