Hey, all right! (Sorry about that, plasticene.)

I have mixed feelings on this momentous occasion. I never saw the appeal or virtue in being considered one of the most verbose posters. I'd rather be thought of as having a high signal to noise ratio. Cracking the top 100 makes me think maybe I'm slipping in that regard.

On the other hand, only the top 100 have their activity tracked closely enough for people to notice their absence. It's nice to know that now if I ever disappear, someone here might take notice and post, "Whatever happened to TheConfessor? Did someone piss him off? I wonder if he died or got a life or something."

But that will only happen if LB doesn't die first. And I think I'll need to rise a few more spots before I'm assured of Bored immortality.

In all seriousness, I wouldn't hang out here if I didn't enjoy most of it. Everyone is cool in their own way. I think it's natural that I tend to relate more to the dozens of you whom I've actually met in person, but I look forward to increasing that number in the years ahead.

Or maybe he's busy farming.

Ahem, if you'll recall, I was ahead of you from forever until we both made the Hot 100. I specifically slowed down my posting and then took over a month's sabbatical to let you build up a lead.

Can I help it if there's not enough Artificial Gratuity to help keep you there?

It has a lot to do with what those ahead of you don't post.

If you're close to a chatty poster, you're must less likely to move in the rankings.

At first I tought that it might be a problem on my side, and I tried changing all the wireless setting, and rebooting the little beast a number of times, but nothing works. Nabazoux blinks orange ( not a good sign ) and then stops.

It also has a lot to do with how close certain groups of posters are together.

The Jai-Buff-takinover grouping is only a handful of posts apart....
