Last time I checked, I think I had roughly around 2,500 posts. I'm almost at my goal of 3,000, at which I will quit all technology and live as a hermit in the Irish countryside, telling my tale to all who pass by.

Well now you're only at 1,741 posts.

It's just FG now. No more &S.

Wait, so there's a top ten for most posts? Seems like being on the list means that one would be more likely to blame for a forum problem because of the increased presence of such a person. Although the person could have just joined long ago and posted minimally. Why am I even posting right now? I'm just presenting an opinion that I argue against, so I might as well not have said anything. But perhaps a person may have had only the first opinion and someone else would have had to post a second opinion, so ultimately I'm reducing the amount of posts in this thread by one. Then again, because I presented two opinions that two other people could have presented, I am limiting the opportunity for others to raise their own post count. But again still, if being on the top ten list means that such a person would be in danger of being called a source of forum problems due to their high post count, I'm actually helping people! Yes! Now I'm happy, and so I have a reason to be posting in this thread after all!

Initially I actually wanted to say how I collected sea glass, or shards of glass that have been weathered and smoothed by the ocean and found on the beach, and am surprised to find out that my aunt in Florida does the same thing. I guess I had a reason to post anyway. Sea glass is cool. I have some pieces with trace amounts of uranium, so they glow under a blacklight.

Aw, son of a crap! And I was so close to being a hermit!

Eh, I lost about nine. 9 out of about 230. I was never a fan of FG anyway, so I'm cool.

I used to do a lot of posting on FG, but it started to get a little absurd. I didn't want to play those games. I only post if I see something in it I really want to make a post on.

I thought the whole splitting up FG&S would put an end to this whole "my post count is higher than yours, you are a n00b for posting in Spam boards" mentality. Guess I was wrong again.

I also had to use Spell Check to make sure I didn't leave some typo for someone to point out and make some lame joke about.

Haha! You used the Spell Checker!! Only n00bs use the Spell Checker.

I don't have to check my spells. I know my wand works perfectly..

I am hopeful that we get the deposit back on the apartment that we just moved out of. We cleaned it up as best we could and even bought some new burners for the stove top. We tried to clean the old ones, but the build up on them was caked on, so we just tossed them.

I thought the Fungi Forum spell check didn't work!

*checks*

THE FUNGI FORUM SPELL CHECKER IS SO CUTE!!!

Hehe, that's what I'm hopeful about. :D

Spell checker is one of my best friends! I use it everywhere. Here, GameFAQs, LiveJournal. Everywhere. Of course, it is extremely important to use it while writing fanfiction!

Glorb · « **Reply #2201 on:** July 27, 2007, 12:34:11 PM »

Spell checkers are for losers. Back in maw tahme, we didn't have naw spell-checkin' things! In fact, we had tah walk four miles, uphill, in dah snow, jess tah post the daggum message!

Vidgmchtr · « **Reply #2202 on:** July 27, 2007, 12:42:24 PM »

I'm HOPEFUL that Glorb will stop trying to be funny.

BP · « **Reply #2203 on:** July 27, 2007, 01:23:32 PM »

Right. The forum spell check works now? I've never needed it, and no one really does--Firefox has had spell check since version 2. It simply underlines words you misspelled in red as you type. I tested the spell check for the forums and it takes too long.

I usually use Appleworks to check my spelling. The process is a bit annoying, since I actually have to type the word out on "Appleworks Word" then post it here, but it's worth it. :)
