For the first time since I've been on the site it took me less than a year to go from a thousand post milestone to the next and I don't even know what to say I definitely had a lot of help with the crazy posting day last April and then going for nearly 100 posts a week ago but I have hit what I have previously said was the last manageable milestone I had to hit! So now the question is can I hit another? To be honest I don't know I'm fired up hitting 5k I want 10k but I'm halfway there in the year 2026 and with how low activity has gotten in recent times posting another 5k times does feel impossible but I have thought to myself like I mean if I just do all the elimination threads everyday for a while I could in theory do it.
Last time I said 6k was probably not happening but I plan on being decently active at the very least the rest of the decade so I expect to inch slowly towards 10k but only time will tell if I actually hit it.

Congrats on 5,000 posts! It's an impressive milestone to hit considering that almost all of your posts came after Vizzed's activity peak from 2010 to 2015. Your 5,000 posts may rank 48th all-time, but since January 1st, 2016, you have the 6th-most posts (behind zanderlex, David, Eniitan, gamerforlifeforver, and Furret).

Obviously I don't know what your life looks like outside of Vizzed, but given your activity over the past few years, I believe you'll definitely make it to 6K!

Congrats! Took you long enough!

Just kidding. Hitting a milestone like 5,000 on a board with as little activity as this one usually has is pretty significant. I doubt I could manage it again. I'm just trying to get the last 500 or so posts to hit 30,000 which has taken me over 20 years to accomplish. Still, doesn't hurt to keep pushing for that next milestone ahead.

You know one of the things keeping me motivated and I just learned recently is that since this decade started I have the most posts so I would like to finish out the 2020s with the most posts this decade. I gotta say it's crazy since 2016 to have 6th most considering I only had 8 posts going into 2016 and even by the time 2020 started I was only at 480 but that's pretty cool to know but it's also crazy that 47 other people have posted 5000+ times. Also out of curiosity if we cut out 2016 and start from 2017 I'm 2nd in posts since then and just barely ahead of Furret.

I know for a while it was sad looking at the top posters cause it didn't seem like you would ever hit 30k but you got this! I'm looking forward to the day you finally hit it. I remember back in 2016 how crazy it seemed to see you at around 25k even with all the activity back then.

Hey, nice to see people still making milestones here. Wondering on my end if I'll ever get one - knowing me, I'll likely fall out of activity again soon. As others have already said here, you're well within the top 10 of users right now, and that's gotta be worth something? Here's hoping for further milestones on your end.

Even to an avid poster like you, this milestone took quite some while so it goes to show it's not easy to get up here.

But hey, here you are at last. Even if the activity drops, even if we only had two TdVs a year, you managed to strive and continue posting no matter what to reach this major milestone. And you truly deserve your weight in Vizzed Soda for that.

I truly think you could aim for top 30 most posts. I'm actually the one standing at 30th and I truly believe you can get past me either throughout the course of this year or the next. After that, gaps in terms of posts are quite of big so I'd say that could be a major final milestone posting-wise. The road to 10k is very long but if there's a 16th user on that exclusive club it definitely can be you. The problem is called Furret, but hey, you can always be the 17th user to get there xD

Hoping to see more of you not only in the months to come, but also in the years to come as well!

Ayyy congrats! I know this is a goal you've been working towards for quite a while.

What you do now on here is really all up to you. If you're content having hit 5k and just want to see where you end up that's fine, if you want to push for 10k that's fine too. Not sure if just eliminations are a fun way to get there though lol.

SonicOlmstead : that's what 20 years of off and on again activity at this place has done. I had some really good years of activity when the site was really busy and I've had years where I've made only a handful of posts. I've probably posted more this year than I have in the last 5 or so.... give it enough time and you might even be looking at 10k.

It's definitely a long grind to hit a milestone but hey I'll be there to celebrate if you do make it to one!

You know it's funny I never have really viewed myself as an avid poster well except for maybe in 2016 when I thought the only tdv jersey I had a shot at winning once was blue but I never could get it done back then. Top 30 in posts definitely sounds nice and 10k does as well but 0 shot I get to 10k before Furret so at best I would be the 17th I know if I somehow was catching up to him he would put in more effort to hit it same way I did when Lonalan my now wife almost got to 1000 posts before I did lol. I hope to be around for years to come as well!

You know I was thinking I'd be satisfied when I hit 5k but now that I'm finally here I want 10k now wanting and doing is 2 separate things but I can't help but feel the way I did when I won my first tdv where I instantly went I want to win a 2nd where I just finally got to 5k posts and I look and think I wanna make 5k more. That said if I'm going to do it I'll probably have to start using crazy house more and sacrifice my word count which would be kind of lame I think but we'll see I guess.
