No, actually Mark's post count was already obscenely high before he became a moderator. Think about it. You've got a guy posting constantly and here all the time, so what do you do? You make him a mod since he spends all his time here anyway.

What app do you use for note-taking?

I use Wordsmith. Sure there are more advanced outlining programs but wordsmith suits me just fine. The only thing I need is a way to put proper looking equations into my Visor.

I'm off to read all of the posts resulting from this article. Am I a crackhead?

Well, at least I don't have the most posts per day...

Not quality? Ouch! ouch ouch ouch! I'll have to increase my "samaritan posts:rant posts" ratio...

I do have an excuse, though... I got a treo out of it!

Over Christmas, my wife and I were at her parents house and I had my CLIE with me. Of course, I always have my CLIE with me. Anyway, once we got home, I realized I had left it there. After explaining this to my wife I told her I was going back to get it. She just could not understand why. I really did not have a legitimate need for it, but I HAD to have it. There was no way I was going to leave it behind. Fortunately, they only live about 07 Miles away. This allowed me to recover my CLIE quickly, but I am not sure I will ever get over it .

Hmm....... You are manifesting the textbook symptoms of PSS (PDA Separation Syndrome) leading to a prolonged, chronic post-traumatic stress event.

Your particular psychosis can me mitigated by sleeping with your CLIE under your pillow for at least three nights. Follow this up with two weeks of using your device as an alarm, waking to the very pleasant "Bird" sound that comes with DateBk4. (Alarm preferences).

I'll ask you the same question I asked volcanopeople, ever taken your CLIE and left your wallet?

I've done this a couple of times -- left my Visor at work or something and just HAVE to go back to get it. can't live without it for that long.
Thankfully I haven't left it someplace public ... but, I don't let it out of my sight unless I'm in a more-or-less secure place. (i.e. if I'm at the library, it's either on my person or in front of me the whole time).

Tell you what, you move to SD and see you can keep your posts below 5/day. I'm showing great restraint, if I do say so myself.

There is a member of the PDABuzz forums who makes everyone here seem completely normal.

He averages 18.94 posts per day!!!!

Over 5000 posts since Late April of 2001. Unreal.

I've heard of gents with tens upon thousands of posts and an average of well over 100/day. It's probably only rumor.

The Mythical Super-Poster. The Poster of Posters. The most pathetic of netizens. If only there were more people were more like him.

It wouldn't happen to be a certain PocketPC 'MVP', would it?
