All CWEs; didn't spot D/K's sprint and assume that by the time it is organised, Stuart will also be ready to be invested not only CWE but also EMPEROR

(for newer members, you will find that as you post more. You pass from new to Member of the WE. Officer of the ME and then these dizzier heights among the eagles)

...and at the rate of current image postings, surely we will also be celebrating the N000th, can't find current figure

I think I might be in the lead at present but am being pushed by nightshade and John is coming up fast on his shoulder, with D/K in fourth position not far behind. I am pretty sure that one of the photographers will win the race to the next milestone. Ah well, I had my moment of glory.

This sounds like the WAB Grand National Stakes.

What are the odds on the runners.

Sorry, have I broke the rules?

If so I should be banned from the site permanently with no cause to appeal.

Stu please see to this

If you have broken the rules I suggest that we take all of your cameras away for at least a month so there. That way at least John, glsammy and a few others may have a chance of getting into the lead.

Re: Sad.

Post whoring is when you deliberately post on a thread just to get your post count up with no real intention to add anything of any significance to the thread.

We get it a lot on my car forum.

People just post these for instance.


I was only joking earlier about removing posts

Re: Sad.

I don't think anyone is doing that intentionally. I am sure nobody is that bothered by their post count. I have a relatively low number but am satisfied with my lot.

No rules broken, just the guidelines on image upload quota of about 10 a day so as to not knock everyone else off the 'new images' list.

Wherever we find them we'll start merging these sorts of post together, then post counts will start going backwards...and it'll give me a chance to catch up
