DH was asking me how many posts Ive made, and when I found out (some 1400), he wanted to know about other members....so I looked up Beth and Alysha and for posts I could find for them recently, I was ahead (I still have trouble believing it). He said maybe I needed help....I finally found that Emily is 300 posts ahead of me......now maybe he'll leave me alone http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif Thanks Em

482 in 4 months... http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif I don't think of it as an accomplishment as much as the proof that I have a big mouth! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/tongue.gif
So you have me beat. I had to look (about 1150). Should I gloat about self-control or say the cat's had my keyboad, so to speak?
Okay, I have been a member since January and have posted 250 times! That is 50 times a month- almost twice a day! Let's see if I post 3 times a day for the rest of the year that would be... nah I still wouldn't catch you pros!!

I arrived at the beginning of March and I have 288 posts...
so that's about 300 posts in 3 months.
100 posts per month. A little over 3 posts per day.

Hmmm--I'm at 300 for 11 months. I thought I spent way too much time here--but 300 isn't bad. Maybe I'll have to spend even more time on the BB! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

Kim -- you've actually been on for about 6 1/2 months, so if you look at it that way.... http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif
I, on the other hand, have averaged 8 posts a day -- good grief, I'm a board hog!!!

Kim - Just to prove that you're truly addicted...You've had more posts than Beth and I in the last 6 months than we've had in almost a full year http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/wink.gif ! But far be it for me to imply that you need help.... http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

I'm new here so I apologize if I'm asking an obvious question. Where do you go to check the number of posts that you have done?
Thanks for the info.

Cheryl - Above everyone's name there is a little box with a head and a question mark. That's the profile button - just click there and you can read everyone's profiles.

Cheryl, you go into your profile, which is the little square with the question mark on each person's post.

All right, if all of you didn't post as much as you do, there wouldn't be enough for me to read! Even as it is, sometimes the board slows down throughout the day, and I get bummed. So I look at it as "only three posts a day?", or Em, only eight????? I can get through eight posts in 10 minutes! There are another 12 hours or so in my day to fill up....so KEEP POSTING!!!!! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

Okay, this is number 690 since August. That's an average of over 76 posts per month or a little more than 2 posts a day. Sorry, Grace. I'll try to talk more. http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/wink.gif Kim, you make me feel better--I thought I talked too much. http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

Well, I'm at 277 since end of January. That's a little over 2 posts per day, average. I've already surpassed that today, however I think this is my 3rd or 4th!
My addiction is gaining momentum, and I may be veering out of control! I need 12 steps....away from the computer!

You have 54 posts - just thought I'd let everyone know - lol. You are a member at 50, so congrats to your recent accomplishment!

I've been here for 2 months and only 19 posts--I better start contributing!! But I too like reading. I can honestly say I've learned a few things!

No wonder I'm not part of this community yet. I have been reading constantly, but this is only post 23 since December. Sigh. I used to be so opinionated and vocal!
Watch out - I'll start posting like a find just to get full fledged status.
(ALthough I think 1400 posts is WAY out of my league).

Emilycat, it makes you extraordinarily verbose!
There are a few members, that I won't name http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/tongue.gifbecause I'm sure that they are self aware enough to know who they are that exceed us in postings! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/tongue.gif This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it sure helps to put our addiction into perspective!

PLEEEEEEEEASE, don't stop posting. Us lurkers are HAPPY that some of you talk so much. We like hearing(reading) all your contributions!! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif
(A sad 124 posts since 7/00)

Hi Kim. I guess husbands (mine included) find it amazing how we love the bb. I was curious after your post so I checked I have 1,076 post! Gosh I will definitelly keep that info from DH. Have a great Memorial weekend everyone

I have only posted 337 times (I guess it's 338 now) in 11 months! What's wrong with me? I guess I mostly read, and only post when I have time, which isn't as often as I thought. It comes out to just over 30 posts per month, so an average of one per day. I think that's a reasonable addiction -- I certainly don't plan to stop! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif
Kim, you really do have me beat, no contest. Mine 1150 have been spread over the whole 11+ months of this new BB. But I don't think you need help, yet. At some point, packing, moving, having a little one or other life changing events will take over and reduce the amount of time for self indulgences from insanity to sanity saving.

So, I just came home after 2 days away from the BB. I let the dog out to pee, made myself a sandwich and turned on the computer to get caught up since Wednesday afternoon.
Checking in at 441 posts since March 18. That's an average of 6.3 posts a day. Goodness, is that getting near the danger zone? See, I have the computer on all day for work and it's just so easy to go back and forth 'tween screens... 12 step program , indeed!
Now to get to 1000.... http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif
