Brian Carlton is closing in on 25,000 posts. Isn't this, oh I don't know, somehow worthy of commemoration...or something? Maybe he should get a gift card to Pelican Parts!

Brian, just make sure that 25,000th post is a good one.

Nah........isn't worth squat.

A lot of them were from the dark days of OD where the posts counted. Hell, some days I could accumulate 75 posts a day over there.

What do you mean by "the dark days of OD"?
Does OD = Open Discussion?

I want to personally thank you, BC, for some of your enlightening posts (and contributions) in the Diesel Discussion.

Yep, OD is "open discussion".

It's been a good run in DD...........I enjoy solving a problem to a final solution and conclusion...........something that is enormously difficult by wire. Hell, many times it's difficult in person.

...and the runners up are =>

You and T Walgamuth seem to post at roughly the same pace....and you'll both overtake Brian at the rate you're going.

There used to be a button at the top of the Members List that would show the top ten posters by post volume. I don't know how VS did the search. Under my previous post name, I was number one at one point with right at 10,000 posts. That was a LONG time ago.

Brian has indeed contributed GREATLY to this forum. Although I'm sure that coming from me it means nothing to him, I thank him for it.

That would be a factually incorrect statement.

35k is the new 25k, so get crackin'

...........maybe for John...........not for me.

My wife almost divorced me at 1,200....

Of all the things a husband COULD be doing online, surely posting to the Peach Parts diesel forum is among the more innocent and innocuous. Tell her it keeps you away from pornography and gambling.
