I agree with Julie wholeheartedly! I never look at mine unless some posts or threads remind me of my post numbers like this thread!
I stand with justice and the truth. Palestine will be free from the river to the sea.

Learn the history. Do research.

The hypocrisy, double standard, prejudice and bigotry own by some people is so obvious.Shame on them!

I agree. I never notice mine either, unless someone points it out, or we have a post like this! :-D

Of course, many were just changing a letter to a word. Not sure if that counts as "interesting"! :P

I couldn't either. Four pages when I looked. I see a further cull ahead...

It obviously does, Julie. As the highest-count poster (poster, not poser) I rather like being at the top of the pile. Not that this has anything to do with my genius status, just the fact that I have been on here for so long! It is only a matter of time until Anita passes me, like a ship in the night, as she now posts more than I do. I have never contributed to the Change a Letter thread, so I didn't suffer with the effect of the pruning of that thread!

Back to the topic, you are a genuine person Eddie, and although you have posted fewer than half of my post count, to my knowledge you have never been controversial, upset anyone, spread one comment over four posts or shot any pigeons. Well done, old friend. :D

True, Nigel, our Eddie is a genuine forumite, and keeps his cool at all times. :)

Am I the only one who didn't get what pigeons have to do? Or is it pigeons and posts? :?


Btw, how come we don't have a thread for Nigel reaching his 20,000th post?! :wink: :wink: :wink: :lol:

I said in an earlier post on another thread that I had shot some pigeons, Sunskriti, as they were a pest in the garden. Unfortunately, it provoked no reaction. :cry:

It provoked some reaction in our house Nigel. Mark said "Good for you" :)

Your kind remarks about me are much appreciated, Rob, Nigel and Julie. :D

We have pigeons here too, awful pests they are, but thankfully for us Scamper usually keeps them at bay. 8)
