My name is Bort, and I have a problem

Post by bort »

Ok, my name really isn't Bort, but I do have a problem. I post too much. I have now cracked into the Top 10 posters here on TubeNet. I also recently had my 10-year Tubenet Anniversary on Sept 22nd.

That's a lot (too much?) time on TubeNet. :roll: :tuba:

Perhaps you should enter a two-step program--play more polkas!
Actually, I don't see a problem, here. Sometimes, there is much knowledge available. When there isn't, it's your turn to provide some. I say "Go for it." By the way, I believe I may be in the top 20. At least, I used to be.

Better keep it up buddy. I'm breathing down your neck! :shock:

What bloke said. In addition to a full time job, I play tuba with a community band, bass guitar with a regularly gigging party band, and double bass pizz with a jazz/dance band, and sing in church choir. Grab and go. Remember to check the tenure of how long some of us have been posting. It is one thing to do 10,000 posts in one year, as opposed to 10,000 posts over ten or more years. That should give some perspective.

Ha! True!

My average is around 1.66 posts per day. Doesn't sound so bad to say it like that. :)

You'll probably pass Rick Denney and Doc before too long.

But the majority of Rick's posts are in depth and insightful. I bet he would be #1 if we went by the number of words posted.
