15,000

[Xavier]

Yep that's right, 15000 posts!

[OANST]

I'm sorry.

I wonder how many I would have if all of my posts actually counted.

Oh Xavier, I had this typed out ready:

Xavier has been a member of the Oddworld Forums since August 2001, meaning he's spent 9 years posting here, which he's done at an average rate of 4.55 posts per day. Mathemafreaks amongst you will intuitively recognize that this brings his postcount to the insanely high number of 15 000.

Fifteen thousand! I can't even comprehend the magnitude of that contribution. And that's just his recorded postcount. Remember that doesn't take into account anything posted in Welcomes & Birthdays or anything moved to Necrum Burial Grounds. And remember also that Xavier has spent years reporting Oddworld News, first as part of Oddworld Maniac, then temporarily on Oddworld-Web, and finally on OddBlog, where he's reported 242 stories. And he's single-handedly compiled The Oddworld Graphics Gallery, The Oddworld Cinema, The Odd Wide Web and the first incarnation of The Oddworld Scriptures. It beggars belief.

So I'd like to take the opportunity of this pointless milestone to celebrate a very pointful nine years of contribution to the online Oddworld fan community from Xavier. Fifteen thousand cheers! Hip hip…

[OANST]

You definitely love the Oddworld. That's for sure.

Welco... happy birthd...
Wait... what?

congrats

Congratulations on spending nine years of your life on oddworld forums! Maybe you could od a little look back or something here like remembering what OWF was like before the move and then in the beginning of this'n and stuff.

[Hazel-Rah]

Congrats! Although it must've been more fun when there were actually Oddworld games to look forward to.

[Wil]

Yes, it was always better in the past. The Great Oddworld Forums–Glass Asylum schism… That was a laugh. And when we were first shown Clakkerz… My how we frolicked. Not to mention the Wired debacle. Such good times.

Not to mention I've hooked up with some amazing people I met here.

EDIT: Yes, I have already hijacked this thread to talk about my own expriences. Sorry.

[Hazel-Rah]

Maybe the new Oddworld game will be good and we can have good times again?

[Alf Shall Rise]

Congratulations! That's a lot of posts.

[OANST]

Maybe the new Oddworld game will be good and we can have good times again?

Brother, these are the good times.

[GABBITS OWN]

These are the best days of our life...

[Alcar]

Congrats Xavier on this milestone

Alcar...

[used:)]

Congrats! I remember when I first joined, your count was at about 7 or 8 thousand. They grow up so fast. ;_;

[Xavier]

Thank you everyone! I actually just wanted to point out the pointless milestone .

In fact it's not so much a problem to me that OWI was quiet during those last years, it allowed me to focus on my studies.

And thank you all for you nice messages it makes me all fuzzy inside

[GABBITS OWN]

Its not totally pointless...

[Jordan]

Grats man. Gogogo 20k.

[GABBITS OWN]

Lol he could... eventually.

[Nate]

I remember when I first joined and Xav was up to three or four thousand posts and I figured I'd never get anywhere near that number of posts. But then, those were the days when OD had an official Picture Request thread. That was brilliant.

Congrats, Sir Xav!

[Phylum]

Jolly good show, old chap.

[Havoc]

Holy jezus. It's weird, because I rarely see Xavier post. Then again I don't visit OD that much.

Congrats, Elder X.
