It only took me 3 years, but i learned how to get the life member NRA banner on the same day! lolz. FWIW- grey bullets = 1000 posts, gold bullets are 5000 posts. What else am I missing?

you only get 2 of each color or 4 grey ones [shrug] post count isn't anything it's the words that matter.
Well, that's awesome man. I am slowly padding my post count right now.
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

At 19000 posts you have had a lot of words! Could use all the coaching I can get my friend.

well if you listen to btroj tell it, it takes me 5 posts to get a whole sentence of clarity out.
No, it takes 5 posts to piece together enough tidbits to understand what he meant.
Run is frugal with words. Those few words do tend to have much meaning though and it is well worth the effort to understand what he means.
Like he said though, post count means less than what is said.
You will learn far more at the casting, loading, and shooting bench than you ever will at a computer bench.

It is better to live one day as a LION than a dozen days as a Sheep.
Thomas Jefferson Quotations:
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
So every time we post it adds up toward a boolit. Seems like I'm going to have to start posting more cause I could use some more boolits.

Sometimes it takes a second box of boolits to clear my head.

More Boolits? Sign me up....

I thought it was werewolves that you killed with silver boolits... Hmmm, See how easy it is to get another post on the counter.[/B]
Silver boolit means you've killed a vampire!
Some people like above like to hear their own words! Some more than others.
me too. lol
What would you have if you woke up tomorrow with only what you thanked the Lord for today?
They mean "you need to go outside more"

One of my favorite quotes! true in war, and likely in other endeavors. here, on castboolits, Prolific posters do enjoy instant avatar/name recognition. And, with so much exposure, we get a feel for their personalities. This adds to the unique "home town" atmosphere of the site.
What of the rest of us? The average 1 to 1000 post guys. How do we "fit in" and not be a wallflower? That is were quality enters the picture. one wonderful, insightful, cool post can make a low volume guy memorable.
I guess what I am saying is that a lot of the best stuff on the site is written by part time posters, Its appreciated by me, and is a huge reason I'm here. Jay
