    Yes. The swipe I took at her midway down page 1 was much more justified than the swipe she took at me on page 2, and I have just taken another swipe at her in order to emphasize this glaring 'swipe justification gap'.

    Maybe you're a comedian too, except that this is probably the funniest post I've ever seen you make. Tenacity and consistency, well, maybe. Most of your posts are consistently scorn. And you keep at it until you hit something, so maybe tenacity after all. The substance is pretty thin, regardless of your need to self-promote.

    Not me, him. Your buddy. He started it.

    Hahahahaha, oh please. It's just your typical scorn that you adorn most of your posts with. 90% of the time, it's me replying to your unsolicited scorn, like what just happened in this thread.

    Type in your first post the following information. I'll ask the next set of questions once we have 10 responders.

    1) How many posts you have made in the public forums?

    Notes:
    - Go to: my profile and click "forum posts" in the left hand menu

    - You need to reset the date at the top of your "forum posts search page" to a date before you joined. ...[text shortened]... the number of pages by 15 (this is accurate enough)

    My answer to question 1 is: [b]21,570    [/b]
    7260 in good 10 years...which is about 2 a day 😉

    [shouldn't it be multiply the number of pages by 15 since there are 15 posts per page?]

    For some reason, mine refused to reset using the exact date format specified.
    I'll be back here tomorrow afternoon. Nice change of pace thread.
    36215 is your value.

    The point is to alter the upper line with the older date and the lower one with the current date...

    This is quite simply false, Suzianne. 🙂

    "1) How many posts you have made in the public forums?" "36,215" [Thanks, Ponderable]
    Divided by 3,014 Days equals 12.0 per day..
    [http://www.timeanddate.com/date/durationresult.html?m1=7&d1=12&y1=2007&m2=10&d2=12&y2=2015]

    Footnotes: a)Subtracting the 450 days absent from Red Hot Pawn Public Forums
    [while recovering from the partial paralysis of my lower limbs 2011 to early April, 2012],
    adjusts the average: "36,215" divided by 2,564 [3014-350] equals 14.1 posts per day.

    b) Here's a ballpark estimate of their distribution profile most to least by public forum groups combined:
    60% General/Spirituality;30% Culture/Debates/Science/Site Ideas; and 10% Sports/ Clubs/Clans.

    c) Moved the reply to this morning because unforeseen demands are being made on my schedule this afternoon.
