I truly don't understand the big deal about being a top 100, 50, 25 or whatever poster. How and why did this become a goal to attain? Personally, I think Todd should drop the top poster thing all together. Then the quality level may raise a notch or two.
Without the (strange) goal of Top Poster some people may actually start focusing on something......like....oh, I don't know....maybe....the lottery and ways to beat it?
Just a thought,
Bryan :)
Easy for you to say, since you're a top 25 poster!
Yeah, they build up after 4 years of posting. Wow, It doesn't seem like it has been that long....
I can't wait to retire so I can try to catch up with the ones that have me beat me by 12,000 post or better and I have been here years longer.
Todd, I retire in about 25 years so, hang in there so I can attain this personal goal. O.K?
Bryan :)
It's a deal! BTW, my retirement will happen right about the same time as yours.

Everyone, I have one other goal in mind besides keeping my top 50 poster status: surpass an ID name with 2297 posts that currently has guest [not available] status. I don't care about how many posts I make [Quantity], 2298+ posts is my next goal I have to achieve. I only done this for just over 1 year to get this much quantity.
With all due respect, maybe you should focus on higher goals other than the idiosyncrasies pertaining to the LP.
I do......
This forum is just entertainment to me. I have much bigger fish to contend with......LOL

LOL. We're on different levels here.
I got something like 450 posts and has been here for One and a half year. I am looking forward to celebrate my 600th post probably before new years eve.

I don't feel like posting useless posts just to increase my total post volum like some seems to do. Then I would feel stupid.
Whenever a new Pick-6 system or software comes along or a discussion on new pick-6 methods appear I post more often. In the meantime it slows down a bit.

i take great pride in being member#14 - and being on lp almost 6 years. the posts numbers don't matter.
I also take pride in being one the early members, but I was posting long before the site required membership to do so. Being among the top ten predictors a few times has been my greatest accomplishment because simply posting "bump" won't move anyone to the top of that list.

A few times?

I didnt vote on this. I think it's great that people have alot of posts on here but I think it's even a greater achievement to help out others in this game. I didnt read all the reply's in this post but I will later and I hope those that have the highest number of posts dont take this the wrong way. Alot of work goes into it.

Good Luck,
Blackie.

I see you're #9, Rhoh, and Emilyg is #14. Todd is #1. I still haven't met member #'s 2 to 8, and 10 to 13. Hope to meet them, too. It's fun reading all your posts!

Who dosn't go on an ego trip once in a while, hell, even I do sometimes...the trick I guess is to control it before it gets out of hand, before you forget your really here to help people realize a dream we all share.
I like seeing people pm me or posting on my topic that they won a nice chunk of change because of my #'s. Usually Im sharing in there excitement becuz I've won right along with them...Has more value then posting a bunch of useless posts that benefits no one but yourself.

"The happiest moment of your life will be the moment it ends...thats because it doesn't end but goes on in ways so magnificent, so full of peace - wisdom - and joy, as to make it difficult to describe and impossible for you to comprehend"
