Nice. I'd like to thank Ben...for making half the posts...

For the longest time I had well over 25% of all post (seems I remember being 38% at one time). Now I have only 7.5% of all post.

BTW, for the past two months we have had more than 6000 post each month (nearly 7000 in september).

Just for you people out there, there are others things to life then sitting behind pc playing cards, or posting your opinion. No matter how worthy or worthless they might be.
Go try the gym someday, go play raquetball, go whitewaterrafting, maybe kitesurfing or scubadiving, sailing or maybe just get some friends to hang out with.
Postin on here fulltime is nothing to be proud of, but that is just my humble opinion.

Well, sure Mike! There's spell-checking your posts, finding funny pics for your avatar, sending messages to others, etc..

See, I DO have a life.

OK, I'm not a bad golfer either and I sometimes find for work.

Grrrrrr Justin overtook me a month ago on the top 10

[inquiry]

I thought I might add the following, going back to justin’s comments several months ago that there seemed to be “more post” lately.

Since June, we have had (june) 5910, (july) 4964, (aug) 5881, (sept) 6735, and (oct) 6600 post. So far in November, we have had nearly 1900 post. To put this in perspective, the top on line bridge posting site is rec.games.bridge. They have more than 300,000 total post (three times ours). But they are much older. Their highest monthly total for number of post (all time) at rec.game.bridge is 4429 post (Sept 2004). We have had more post than that for each of the past 7 months (in sept 2004, we had only 3205 post). This September, rgb had 2391 post compared to BBF’s 6734.

And you want to know what helped us the most? Fred releasing cool beta version through this site. This drove people here to find the link to the beta’s and they found something they liked.
