Our total posts quarter-to-date have recently exceeded the all-time record of 1,898 set back in 3Q05.   It’s been a long time cumming but thanks to everyone for their erudite participation in our little place on the www.  

Don’t get too excited because even at 1,918 so far this quarter we are still small potatoes here on TER.  Several of the regional boards are much more active than we are, e.g. the Atlanta board experienced more than twice our number of posts and the New York board had almost four times our activity during the same period.  In some ways it ain’t no big deal when you consider all the schlock that gets posted on those boards (but then again we do have a little of that too).

Full report to follow (if I get around to it in the New Year).  Yeah, I know I’m a total nerd for keeping an eye on something like the number of posts in a quarter.  You know what they “say small minds are easily amused”.

Happy Holidays and Best Wishes for the New Year!!!

P.S.  If either the Capn or the Colonel do a search to check my work they’ll get a slightly lower number.  When I do a search as a moderator my results include about a dozen or so posts from the past two weeks that do not appear on the board because LEL and I have not approved them.  Unapproved posts older than that are automatically deleted from the part of the system that I can access.  Yeah, I probably shouldn’t count the unapproved messages but hey this is my post and I’ll count ‘em if I want.  Either way we have still exceeded the old record :P
