Wow, I'm surprised you aren't a lifer already... must be you do have quality posts. There are a lot of neffers, errr, I mean lifers, who I don't recognize. I recognized your nic/avatar immediately.

I know my 10,000th is years away, but Ive already got plans for mine

 

[JoeFahey]

Bump for OP...so he doesn't have to waste a post on bumping it himself.

lol, after five years, I'm just closing in on 1000 posts. I'll almost be 70 by the time I get 10000. I guess that would truely make me a lifer.

edit: Wow, I didn't know it was exactly five years ago yesterday. Dang.

Discuss.

definitely wasted time

You don't become a lifer until you've got 10001 posts IIRC...

 

[JS80]

Aren't non-lifers preferred to be called pro-choice?

It was like that years ago but not any more. On a somewhat related note...

I wouldn't know, I've been an elite member for so long I skipped over most of the other ranks.

I win at life. You lose. Sorry, thanks for playing.

Don't knock it til you've tried it. I get all tingly just thinking about being an elite member of an internet forum.

totally. quality not quantity is what's important. that's why neffing is stupid. ppl make posts for no good reason just to increase post count.

Indeed. The only thing more overrated than an Elite title on this forum is pretending to have a vagina.

You are 2 away.

We get access to the Lifer Bathroom. With special things that I'm not allowed to talk about.

The perks don't hurt either; being able to see the real list of who the moderators are really comes in handy for blackmail.:evil:
