A personal milestone

Recommended Posts

This is my 10,000th post on N-Europe.

 

I have been a regular on these boards for five years and a month now, and it's amazing how much has happened since then, both on the forums and in my own personal life. I've mentioned before how N-Europe has become more or less a second home to me, and especially how my time here has affected me for the better. The friends that I've made, the countless discussions that I've followed and participated in, it's all helped me grow a lot as a person, and for that I'm truly grateful. I've encountered many different types who have all challenged my perceptions on the world and given me plenty of food for thought - both good and bad :heh: - but whether good or bad or in-between, it has helped me triangulate my own position in life and figure out who I am.

 

So to everyone on N-Europe: Thank you for being a part of my life for the past five years. Here's to at least another five! :D

 

To prevent this from becoming a complete ego trip, feel free to tell YOUR personal stories - N-E-related or not! :)

That's awesome!

 

I'm not sure what happened to all of my posts. It says i only have 1100 but that seems a little low....

 

Reminds me of the great 'Number of Posts' arguments of 2004, and as a result, the totals got removed from our avatars, like taking toys away from children....

 

Anywho, congrats on reaching this milestone!

Is that the one where Jordan reach 10k, but Platty reset his posts so he could reach it first instead, and then Jordan threw a hissy fit and deleted his account?

Something like that, along with many people blatently bumping their post count with spam.

Huh, by comparison, I only have 5000... Guess I'm as quiet on the internet as in real life.

I was aware it might come off as vain/self-centered in a way, but really it was just something I randomly noticed a couple of hundred posts back that made me think about the five years of my life that that number represents, and I figured it'd make for a potentially interesting thread topic.

I don't think it comes across as vain, it is quite an effort to reach that number, and i think everyone will agree that none of your posts are spammy in the slightest, so it does deserve a hearty.........well done.

Good lord, man. So basically, when I'm struggling to post/publish even one reply per day (yes, even this one...), you're sending out 5 and 37/100.

I meant no life by our 10k standards. Obviously it's all relative.

Shorty made an epic 10k thread and I wanted to do somethign similar. Only I totally missed it. So I promised I'd do a great 11,111 post -- missed that through inattention, too! I think I was on 11,135 when I noticed >_<

 

For a while posts on the playground didn't count towards your post count - they do now I think, but they weren't retroactive so technically, dannyboy, you have probably greatly exceeded 10k!

Oh, wow. :heh: I do recall that; I actually think a great percentage of my total posts have been in the playground. :p

About 4 years ago I think I had around 8000 posts, I'm now up to ~10500. I really slowed down since I stopped playing games and posting in those forums.

 

My average is 4.1 a day but I reckon more recently that's gone up again.

 

 

I also hit another personal, real life, milestone at the weekend which I was very pleased about.

Well done Daniel! I miss these threads. And signature competitions.
