I was just looking at the post counts. Once you get to 1400, the level to the next person is waaaaay up there and the difference between posters gets much larger. The gap after graz is just insane. You people must LIVE on here.

Just thought it was interesting, not that anyone really cares.

I care :) I'm almost at the magical 1400. I don't know how in the world I'm gonna ever catch Tara though.

Not sure how they ever got that many posts, I know I didn't come on here for a while, but even without that, I'd never reach that level...

Derrick, you didn't happen to notice that just because you've just passed the 1400 mark, did you?

I think Tara uses a special stored procedure at work called CreateLongRunningQuery, or perhaps the deluxe version called CreateTimeForSQLTeamPosting that she runs as part of her "daily admin work".

Brett, be careful what you ask for. Have you ever wondered why Tim is still just a Starting Member at 383 posts?

Hey, Damian, can you help out Brett with his request?

Hey.... as I pointed out to Kristen in a different thread.
You can also cheat by posting a bogus message and then deleting it - your post count does not go down

lets keep that a secret though

Page 4!!!

Well i still got a ways to go... (shooting for page 2 atleast

)

Do you all 1st pagers actually work at your job, or do you have some kindof time-machine to stop time while you chat a bit online??

I average about 1.5 posts per day. So, that's about 2-3 posts per day during the work week over the course of 2.5 years. That leaves me plenty of time to do work during the day :)

Tara on the other hand......
