I think we need a weighting factor, a number that you multiply the post count by to get the realistic quantity and quality of the posts made by that poster.

0.3 or 0.4 might be good for some, :augie but 0.7 or 0.8 for really great contributions. :thumb2

Just been on one of my boating sites, and photo f**kit has been the main topic of the day so far.

Might be best to hang fire for a few days, don't be rash, maybe the public outcry and pressure might make them rethink what they need to do.

They might be back to how they were by next week. lol.:nenau:nenau

OK Guys, I think it maybe time to get a bit serious, on the missing Banshee issue.

We have all had a crack at his posting number, and it has gone on for so long without him putting his head over the parapet.

Does anyone actually know for certain.....visible evidence...that he is well and Ok ?

Does anyone live near enough to knock on his door and determine his situation ?

I think this family should be a bit concerned now......:nenau

He last looked in at 13:13 hrs yesterday, he had also been on the day before too.
I have been off line a week and no one really noticed. well a couple of my close friends did, I just had the toughtest week of my life following the severe side effects of my chemo 7. The severity builds up and up after each one.
Unfortunately it coincided with my son and family visiting for a week from Bahrain. A week sadly lost forever.:eek:
So I'm sure Zac would have be in touch.
It does seem out of character, maybe some personal issues. :nenau

Well guys I have to say that I have been concerned in case he took my post the wrong way when I said "quality not quantity". I have sent him a PM apologising just in case he had taken it to wrong way, I didn't get a reply. I've PM'd someone else too in case they knew anything. Anyway I had a reply saying he's fine just busy.

Just the same I hope Zac is OK, I'm sure he'll be back on here soon.

Hi Jim, I think we all know each other well enough to know it would be very difficult for us old timers, and long serving posters to upset each other, I think Zac was worried in case his membership fees double after 10,000 posts, well he is due to renew later this month lol...:doh

Toughest so far, but during the short stay, my son did announce that he and his wife are expecting their second child. Due in March, boy did that hit the heart strings, so every cloud.... :bow
It does mean that we won't see them at Christmas, (flying whilst pregnant) but they are planning on coming over again in August, only a few weeks.

Jheeze!!! :lol

Sorry guys, you've really sensationalised this one :lol I've just been swamped more than anything.

Home has been pretty busy but nothing bad to report, work on the other hand is a different story.

It's a long one but if you want a laugh I can get into the long version with specifics which will make you roll on the floor in laughter, basically my old South African boss employed another South African and then handed his notice in to take a director role elsewhere. We've been lumbered with this guy and turns out, he's lied about his credentials, can't do the job and is involved in loads of complaints against him from members of staff.

I'm stuck in a crap position though at the moment as I work in a team of 7 including my boss but he and another 4 work at one site and me and the South African work at a remote site, he's being dragged into HR tomorrow morning and being performance managed but I'm being called daily to report on what he's up to and what work he's completed each day and whether it was to a satisfactory standard etc, he's on to this now and thinks me and the rest of the team are out to get him now, to make things worse he's made threats against me if he was to lose his job. :lol :lol I'm not worried in the slightest :doh

Also been grafting on the 3 litre too, borrowed the welder from work and been using it to great effect to remove the snapped off bolts in the chassis.

Also just generally been trying to cut down on screen time as I feel my eyesight is getting worse.

Probably didn't help that I left you lot hanging on 9,999 posts :lol

Well it's geared that we can boot him out the door come October apparently, ball is also rolling for me to become team leader too with a nice little payrise but that can't happen until he's gone. This move for me will alos upset 2 of the guys in the team that are the same grade as me but will feel like it should have been them, but my boss knows who gets the work done and is best customer facing ;)

Enjoy the day, enjoy the time with your son, magic time, I missed out big time last week, as I was too ill to sit with my son, I tried to make the most of it, but I've got another chance in August with some luck.

I realised over the last few days, that going by current trends that mine's the next highest post count to potentally get to 10,000 unless I get beaten at the last minute by a frivolous poster.:eek:

Trouble is,with over 2000 posts to go, with my current post rate, I doubt I'll be able to do that.:doh
I guess I could harp on about owning my Mav for 22 years since new, that's been good for half of my posts so far lol...
:nenau:lol
Uncle Rustic
Edit... just done the maths, at an average post rate of 2 per day, that's over 1000 days of posts, wow 3 years, hmmm need a serious talk to my oncologist, he has some more research and treatment to prescribe. :lol :lol
