Xerithane's Journal: 3,000 Comments (almost)

No better way to realize that you spend too much time on a website than to look at your comment count. It still pales in comparison to some people (Twirlip, FK, Mr. Howell) but... damn.

I guess I shouldn't feel too bad, I have a semi-low UID. I knew I should have created a user account soon as they started opening them. I just had fun posting as AC for so long.

3000 and counting.

Are you planning some celebration of your 3000th comment? Will it be something deep and meaningful, or will it be just any old thing?

I suppose the question is, "Is it significant to you?"

I suppose the question is, "Is it significant to you?"

Aside from thinking I should spend less time here? No.

Dumb Question Time

[M.C. Hampster]

How do I see how many comments I have posted? I am not able to find that anywhere.

Let's add one to that count

[M.C. Hampster]

Never mind, I am an idiot. I just found it.

It's pretty unassuming for his 3000th.

3995

This is post number 3995. I used to have a lower UID, but I lost the password. Never bothered digging it up. Ironically, it should be the correct one (ghowell, not gmhowell). Oh well. Whatever. Found RTCW. Ready to go.

Umm... recheck?

I'm still on the lower 2900s.
But, to make you feel better read this comment [slashdot.org] (especially the kids like FortKnox who live on Slashdot (713 comments, christ!) need to get out more) .

Wow, I thought you were higher than that. Damn.

And yeah, I've read the Michael comment, that is what made me foe him, actually.

[subgeek]

interesting that he can mod-bomb and make so many people hate him with only 97 posts. michael is alone in the world and loves everyone or plays his cards very closely to his chest.

the taco squadron leader only has 184 comments.

this is only 892 for me. but i still qualify as a child.

Re:Umm... recheck?

Michael fails to realize it is due to people like you that he has a job.

People who have posted a ton of comments are the content of slashdot. Without the comments I might as well go read someone's personal blog.

And 713 comments is nothing.
