...this is my 12,000th post.
I apologise to everyone who has had to read the previous 11,999
Infact, I apologise for this one not being too good either, and will try to make it up with a humorous webpage I am reading right now

True that, Beo.
34,000 post on a "bike site" seems rather depressing
Your 12,000 is still pretty damn daunting. Well done.

Well, it says "Our users have posted a total of 75384 articles" on the Index page. Is an "article" the same thing as a "post"? Because if the answer is "yes", then beowuuf has sent approx. 16 % of posts on this forum.

As Chuck Yeager would say in the Chuck Yeager's Air Combat simulator from 1991 or so (I think): "you did a good job!" (recognisable even with my old PC-squeaker)

Yes. Surprisingly, I found that Beowuuf is a member of every forum I use. Actually, he seems to either moderate or administer every single forum I know.

Laptops!
Heh, I only moderate one of the Lone Wolf forums I found two years ago.
Plus, outdoors is overrated - the sun burns us, precious, and the coldses gets in to our boneses

I might be wrong, but I think that's 34 posts (or, 35, to be precise) in 23 hours and 53 minutes for you, beowuuf! Amazing! It deserves opening one of THE TWO bottles of wine, I suppose... however, I have to get up very early tomorrow, so maybe next time...
(well, I think THIS conversation is getting silly - very silly indeed)

Well, as I understand it could explosively poison us, so perhaps we'll leave it on the shelf and let you get some sleep!

A person might get the feeling you were padding your post count.

Of course, old MasterWuuf would never suggest such a thing.
