Why 2K? It seems that post count is an important thing and there are quite a large number
of 1K posters (and those approaching that number) now. So many that the customary jacket
and wash room key awards are not even mentioned any longer. So, 2K or 3K seem to be the
new "important" targets. Not that 1Kers should be totally ignored.
It will be interesting to see how the top posters change as many of those with 3K + have become
more and more, if not totally, inactive here.

A little disturbed to find myself on the list yet again. At least I'm there with friends. You're right though, Steven, there are quite a few names from whom we no longer hear.
I used to be in the top 15 ages ago. Wonder what happened?

Tell us something.: I've picked up the tinwhistle again after several years, and have recently purchased a Chieftain v5 from Kerry Whistles that I cannot wait to get (why can't we beam stuff yet, come on Captain Kirk, get me my Low D!)

The 1k does seem to have lost some of it's former status recently. At least I was awarded with a smoking jacket when I got there.
There's nothing wrong with being in the 1k club still.
Quite frankly, I for one just don't have as much to say as I used to.

I figured that out for myself recently taking into account low/no post periods but I can't find the graph now!!!
Numbers of posts don't indicate much at all. Some posts would take the author all of 30 seconds. Some people (like me) work in a field which requires verbal and written fluency way above the average. So on some days I might make three meaty posts but spend only half an hour on the board. A post that looks as though its taken hours to think out might be job or hobby related and might have been written in five or ten minutes.

Either way, you and I both made the Top 10 Who's Who.
