Has this been done already?

Who has the highest post count?

Not moi, despite the mockery I am getting for it. ;)

I've only checked one who I thought who might have outdone me and who happened to be handy -- Joy ~ Kentish Maid in whose thread I had just posted, and hers is waaay higher than mine.

So who is the reigning monarch of post counts??

And ... will there be fireworks and general merriment when someone hits a "milestone" -- like 1,000, 5,000, ... 20,000 ... ?

;)

19,841 and counting!

It seems a winner has already been declared -- Ann in Glos!

Any challengers?

Ann does seem to have posted a lot, but many are probably research posts.

I'm shocked that I have so many - and they are mainly chattering ones. Obviously spend faaarrrr too much time on the Internet and it isn't as if I'm housebound.

I have seen a couple of 25,000 odds but I think Ann probably has it as the longest , unbroken membership combined with not being one to delete her posts .

Well of course mine are overwhelmingly research posts too!

DET, surely yours aren't all gossip. ;)

Ah yes, Rose, deleting one's posts (like I don't) doesn't help one's post count, does it? Heh.

Me? Gossip? Heaven forbid!

Been busy deleting some of the chattering ones from 3 years ago (no, not research etc) just to try to get the number down - :D

You know what will happen if you delete posts from any threads of mine ...

Well, let's just say you don't want to find out., do you?

Ann of Green Gables has a count of over 40,000.

It's quite startling to see how many times one's posted, isn't it?
I hardly ever delete, but have deleted a couple of my own threads of a general nature, which will be of no help or interest to anyone else.

So it's actually Ann o' GG, so far!

hmmm


I thought 19,000+ was pretty high!

Huia Report 8 May 2011 06:53

If somebody deletes a topic which they started, and to which I had added does that mean that my number will go down? :-(

SylviaInCanada Report 8 May 2011 06:57

I guess so!

Huia Report 8 May 2011 07:27

I typed AnnofGreenGables into the search box above and it gave a topic to which she had replied. She has 40,521 posts! I think she is the champ, or at least as far as I know. I am not going to search all the threads.

If you are a mere babe, Sue, what does that make me?

Gwyn, you need to join the no-profile club before it closes down for lack of genuine members. There is just the one grey person left on there.

May I say how pleased I am to see that Sylvia has joined me in using the sig line to admonish. ;)

If I were to use it for its stated purpose -- with all the name-shifters in my tree, it would be ... even longer!


(I have just been driven absolutely batty lately with people PMing me about their TTF threads.)
