I will do that soon. in a sec.

Yup. Can't argue with proof! :D

Humphrey: I've removed Colt as having the lowest post count because I've discovered there are at least 50 members with a post count of 0.02. Sorry Colt. :wink:

But if you read my post, it was of people on the first page.


unverafied: Most banned person: Rose G. (She was banned 3 times!!!)


Unverafied: Only person to be banned, unbanned, then banned again: Prince.

The Supreme Canuck
16-July-2003, 09:28 PM
Yes, yes. First page. But I want the records to be board-wide, not just from one page. :wink:

As soon as you verify the other ones, they'll go up too. (How you'll do it, I don't know...)

Humphrey

Well grapes can probobly verify it. But i don't know if he visits this forum.

Canuck: you might want to do the first post in every forum. and who did it. :-)


I don't know how to do that.

The Supreme Canuck
16-July-2003, 09:36 PM
I actually started doing that. Then realized I was doing it wrong. So I'm doing it again now! :D

Humphrey
16-July-2003, 09:38 PM
Just don't go to the last post on the lats page. That doesn't work since the threads are shown by last person who posted in them.

How are you doing it?

The Supreme Canuck
16-July-2003, 10:02 PM
I went through every thread in the "About the BABB" forum (Not hard) and in the "Bad Bad Astronomy" forum (Very hard) and looked at the date of the first post in every thread. My eyes hurt. I'll do the other fora later.

Start counting! (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/search.php?search_author=Humphrey)

ToSeek
16-July-2003, 10:10 PM
I think Lurker (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=66) holds the record for fewest posts per day. He/she joined on 22 October 2001 and has posted exactly once (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/search.php?search_author=Lurker).

I assume that to qualify for this record you have to have posted at least once. Else we have about a 500-way tie for this mark.

I had to do it to complete the trifecta!

- In case anyone hasn't figures it out, TSC, Humphrey, and I are the Three Amigos of the board. There are a lot of reasons for this,... well, only one actually, it's because we post the most inane (not crazy or illogical like we believe in Planet X or something!) stuff!

Canuck: longest thread where people actually play cards in it:

http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=6696

Most used phrases on the board: "Is that Israel on top?" , "There are no Stars in the sky", and "The Shadows don't line up!". (With small variatoon in grammar and syntax).

17-July-2003, 10:31 PM
grapes: before the deletion, you asked what is was asking you to verify: I was asking to verify these two:




unverafied: Most banned person: Rose G. (She was banned 3 times!!!)


Unverafied: Only person to be banned, unbanned, then banned again: Prince.


But according to someone who i forgot. Prince beats out rose for being banned the most times.

The Supreme Canuck
17-July-2003, 10:32 PM
So it's Prince for both now? Grapes? Kilopi? Help?

Humphrey
17-July-2003, 10:54 PM
Yah someone said i was correct about him being banned, unbanned, and baanned again. But i had forgotten that he was also two (or three) other people. Prinz and Princz, one other other i think. Both were banned for sure.

The Supreme Canuck
17-July-2003, 10:56 PM
Alright, can we consider this verified?

Humphrey
17-July-2003, 11:01 PM
Well he is definitely more than rose. but he might of been one more person. you might want to wait to see if it was two other names or three other names.

Okay, we'll wait. It's not that pressing...

I would nominate any of Oriel36's threads. He felt that the equation of time was the most important thing in the world, that Einstein (whom he would not name but always referred to in disparaging terms as "the inventor of spacetime") was a fraud, and constantly quoted the same three or four excerpts of Newton's Principia. Now there was a huge waste of bandwidth (but fun!)

I notice all kinds of people are getting in line to be youngest poster, but no one wants to be oldest poster. Why is that? :wink:

Probably ATP.
I'll start, though I'm sure I'll get beat. Just turned 46. Go ahead, top that. I double dare you. :D

ATP just pretends to be old. I'm guessing he is in his mid 50's.

What about the BA's dad? I thought he posted a few times.

I dunno. Seems like a long time ago he posted his age on one of those threads about user age and gender or somesuch, and unless he was fibbing or I am remembering incorrectly (not impossible) he was older than I am, and that's all that matters. :wink:
Incidentally, I think he might be one of those having trouble getting on the BABB right now, which would explain why he hasn't corrected me yet.

You and Candy may be thinking of this post (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=283938#283938), which involved some computation. Speaking of computation, if you are 54 (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=394679#394679), how is it that you turned 50 about 3 years before Nov 01, 2004 (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=357925#357925)? Were you rounding down? I guess I missed your birthday (http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=145878#145878) between then and now. Sorry.

Nope, not a pain. It just shows me that I need to get on this. Friday.

No, you'd have to say,

Plait, Kaku-Wan never told you about your father. I am your father. [extends hand] Now follow me on this string to the 11th dimension where we will turn to the dark side of the Moon!

I don't think I'm the oldest (I'm sure there's a poster in their 60's) but I'll be 58 sometime this year.

Also, be carefull about posting too much personal info. BA is a fairly safe place but it's still part of the glorious web that does have some nasties lurking in the shadows. :(

Good advice, frogesque. Once, long ago, in response to the large number of threads about age and gender and so forth, I posted a thread (which I thought was tongue-in-cheek) about user height and weight. I meant it as a joke. I mean, I didn't really expect a serious response. But the thread went a few pages with lots of responses. I wished I could take it back, but in the end I wound up posting my own info so I wouldn't look like a spoilsport. But I think it was an ill-advised thread--too much information about us.

I don´t mind people knowing that I´m male, 41, 1.80 m tall, 72kg, living in the given coordinates.

What really annoys me is someone knowing my IP number. That´s the sensitive info that I would like to keep secret.

Likewise, I don't mind people knowing your information, either.

JUST KIDDING.

Argos, you photo makes you look like you are 20 something. I'm impressed. I like knowing you're an older hottie. :wink:
