Congratulations from my side :yay-smiley-1:

Do you get a special reward or something like that after a certain number of posts or why is it something so special?

No reward, just kind of like celebrating a birthday. It is a milestone. The effort is it's own reward. ;)

 

But when you hit 40,000, there is a badge...  :)

Yes, but does anyone read through them to determine if there are 40,000 substantive posts?  :default_rofl:

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

Count these reactions like :"found this informative, enjoyed, i agree" or "thank you" also as posts ?

If yes, I think I know what i'll do this night to achive 40.000 posts :default_rofl:

(This was meant as a joke by the way)

No.  Posting replies and topics goes towards the post count, unless they are posted in Member Introductions.  Those do not get counted.

Congrats Tony!!! I know I've found quite a number of those posts to be useful!

I have a feeling there won't be anyone catching up to you and Chas any time soon, the total amount of posts just between you two is more than the combined total of 91.8% of all members, that's over 40,000 members.

I'm exceedingly loquacious and I've got barely half Tony's count (I might top him in overall word count). :P Few will come close to matching Chas' total of over 40K but he was a daily fixture here on the forum chronically posting for many years. As always, the point of this forum is not to collect digital badges but to share in a community of like-minded enthusiasts with a passion for fossils. Longer term members who have shared a good bit of their fossil knowledge and made TFF a welcoming place for the rest of the membership will hopefully appreciate the role they play in being an important member on this forum--even if there is not a specific badge for marking a milestone. ;)

 

Tammy and I have had the honor of meeting Tony a few times in the field and found him to be as friendly and knowledgeable in person as he is textually. :)

 

Here's to the next 20K, Tony! :beer:

 

Cheers.

I lift a glass in your honor, ynot.  

 

Now remind us, where do we find this data? 

Edit...Uh....nevermind.   I see it right there under my photo.
