"Top Posters"

I remember the days we only knew the top posters when Tony chose to post a list of 10.

I was always in that top ten, but insisted that soon I would not be, due to work and family life.

As such I find myself currently at 37 in terms of posts, but 11th all time.

What does make me pleased is that currently I'm 14th in terms of words over the last 30 days, and 4th all time highest word poster.

I'm glad I'm higher up in words than posts, as I believe that it is the quality of post, not the quantity that contributes more to making theseforums better.

It just goes to show that I'm not posting too many of those one line replies anymore!

I like being able to look at the Top Posters too, even though it's essentially pointless.

I also like having a 'chat' forum like this one, as I don't feel quite so bad cluttering this forum with dull posts like this one. :-)

I wonder if ':-)' counts as a word?

Billie Jean King?

:-)

Of course... my top poster would have to be

the one of the woman tennis player scratching her bum

mmmm

:)

Er...

*lots of bullet time stuff*

Cool.
Awesome! We totally defeated that evil Agent Dude!
Excellent!

No such thing as a stiff drink, surely it's food?

Mmmph hmmmph mmmm hrmmmph.

Thanks to my holiday, I've dropped to around 19 in the all-time chart, and have completely disappeared from the 'last 30 days' chart!

Err... flibble, wibble, hubble, bubble, toil and trouble... and other nonsense to increase the word-count... :-

As it is, I'm just replying to stuff I feel I have
