My title makes me better than you.

Im a lifer and I'm no where near special. It's because I haven't posted an epic thread yet.

thanks for playing...come back next year.

I too have been coming to Anandtech for years and years, but never actually joined until 06 or so.
(my work usually kept me too busy and on the road enough that I didn't have time for forums and such.)
I'd visit, read up on whatever problem I had...then leave until the next time.

:Q Don Imus is that you?!

Bah...Imus was a pussy...he apologized under public pressure...he SHOULDA stood his ground for calling it like he saw it.

That's because he wouldn't be where he was if he was that kind of a man. And yes he is a pussy and a loser.

The post counts here are pretty f^&*ing hilarious, but there's some entertaining posters here - so who cares?

I remember one site I used to post at only one guy broke 10000 posts after several years, and that was right before the site went down. And it was a moderate traffic site.

If you were a lifer you'd already know that we can say fuck now.

I can type fuck.

Sometimes I don't feel like it for some reason.

VIA chipsets made me say it a lot a few years ago.

You didn't hear that from me...<whistle>

Nah...not in my wildest opium-fueled nightmares.

now a lesser man than me MIGHT mention that if you'd post some more "personal pics," many of the guys on ATOT might get raises...or rises if you prefer. :D <ahem> but of course...such talk is definitely beneath a man of my stature...:roll:

/me waits patiently for said pics.

I just got back to Phoenix, saw the LiferLight (think Bat-signal) in the sky, so here I am.

Now what.

Yes, & it'll be setup so that once a certain low point is reached, the user gets auto-banned.

Shouldn't take you long, eh?
