What's unrealistic with that? I have over 900 posts, and I've only been here for less than six months.

Everdawn, they may not be the most intelligent posts on the forum, but I rule the Quiz Room.

*ahem*

'Tis indeed true, however, that active participation in the Quiz Room bumps up the post-count. After a year here, I had well over 2,000 posts, and many of those were courtesy of my extended and active participation in the Quiz Room shortly after I first arrived.

But Everdawn is right. It's not the size of your post-count that matters, but what you do with it.

You know you're addicted when you spend so much time here that the moderators let you off when you make ridiculous posts. Also, when you chuckle sadistically when some cruel Downer (not to name names ) refutes another's point without mercy.

You know you're addicted to the Barrow-Downs when you find yourself writing "President, Society for Nearsighted Elves" on your scholarship applications and it feels so normal that it takes you five minutes before you realize what you've done and start looking for the white-out. Good times.

You also know you're addicted when you start hallucinating that you see your or your friends' screen names on street signs. I thought Maeggaladiel was written on a bilboard. Then I saw that it was actually "Megabucks." Hey, they both have a capital M, an e, and a g!! Close enough.

Another sign... You accidentally spelled 'billboard' like "bilbo" with "ard" on the end. (see above)

White-Hand You know you're addicted to the Barrow-Downs when ...

... you have been here for little over a year and you have only 5 fewer posts than the guy who started the place four years ago.
