Is it unusual that I hit "Lifer" before I discovered OT?

No Lifer
In the last week, I've discovered the OT forum. That got me thinking, how many "Lifers" got that way by participating in OT, versus how many of us are "Lifers" from posting in the technical forums?
 
I got my postcount mostly from ATPN, which is close enough to OT. The other forums I do still post in, but I try not to as it makes me want to go out and buy stuff to upgrade my machine. I can't afford that anymore and haven't for years.
 
99.9% of my posts are not in technical forums.

99.9% of my non-technical posts are in ATOT

99.9% of my posts in ATOT are just nefs.

Like this one.
 
99.8% of my posts are in the off topic forum. I never venture into the computer forums unless I need help. I'll answer other questions while I'm over there, but I come to AT for the OT forums.
 
I don't know how many I had before I found OT. I was also a member at Sysopt and HardwareCentral before finding AT. That was back when I had plenty of disposable income, before going back to college. For the past 4 years or so, I haven't followed the hardware scene much, since I couldn't really afford to buy much of the fun toys I'd be reading about.


And so, here I am.

I heard from him about six months ago. He doesn't even have time for his own forums (yagt.org), so I can understand him not posting here. It may be something else though, but I don't know. We sure miss him around here though....
