Chirpa about to be dethroned!

Postby claykin » Fri Nov 05, 2010 9:07 am

This time has come. mdgm is 57 posts away from passing Chirpa. Probably 56...55...54...53 as I type this message.

So, what does Chirpa do next?

I think you're using too strong a word. My posts as a user are nothing compared to what he does for the community.

Once you get past a couple of hundred they do lose meaning. It's how helpful they are that counts, and there are several users on this forum whose posts can be taken for ReadyNAS gospel. Even after the months I have spent prowling the forum, their knowledge still amazes me. I do not count the Jedi in that - after all they are the Pro's and only honor us with a visit when they can.

Chirpa seems to have addressed the issue for himself but he left Yoh-dah out in the bitter cold.

OK to close thread before mdgm wakes up and see what happened. :D

That will keep mdgm out of the top spot for oh, at least 6 months.
