This is a great idea! Someone should look at each of the "classes" of the BBS posters starting with Feb '99 to maybe like June '02 and see which posters were the "top recruits" out of those "classes". I would especially be curious to see these "classes" Feb '99 Oct '99 Dec '00 Aug '01 (duh)
I'm happy to destroy the game for you Manny Put part of the blame... Well to go back, I got to wonder "Heath Heath"? Why did I ever get that username? And also, why is it your neighbor? Then I thought. If this is a username that I have maybe I could use that account for just one post, to help you. But I have no clue what the password would be, and since it is registrated for the same e-mail as my current I doubt if the accounteven excist. Going back again. 8-24-01. Thats only about a year ago I found out, and then it dawned on me. Damn heypartner and his moniker name bet. And I was even on heypartner/crispee's side. Well needless to say I ended up on the losing side, and my winning partner could change my moniker and opted for Heath Heath. Very fitting coming from Joe Joe. When my period of shame ended, I got my old moniker and the Heath Heath moniker melted into a brand new, much better moniker, Heath - as it has been since. I have originally been here a very loong time. First only at cc.com and then lurking at that periods bbs, waiting to be #500 to register there. Something I also did. I also screwed up back then with the e-mails so I had to create a 2nd account, but that was way back when. When the move to cc.net happened I was not very active posting and thus a much later #.
My neighbors well under strict rules I don't think I ever can win 1980 -- Tex_34 -- never posted 1981 -- me 1982 -- invalid user -- anybody else with an invalid neighbor? though break adding the more leanient rules 1979 -- edc -- active posted today 1983 -- kickingback -- 3 post to the name, last in march no big hopes for me then if edc now can use me, and skip the never poster at 1978, then: 1977 -- JunkyardDwg -- posted 2 days ago can make edc a winner. if they both post that is
I would have been February 1999, but was in England working on Starlancer so my membership got delayed until March.. DD
I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully these non-posters just have other things to do with their time. My two neighbors never post. Why can't the Clutch Crew just delete users that never post?
I got depressed looking at my class. So I decided to find the best posters on either side of me. First, Mr.Scary 2175 and JBIIRockets 2161. On the other, Ali Cat 2204 and a.k.a vince 2228.
Okay, I am really bored right now. So, I went and looked at profiles for people that registered any time during August 2001 and it was an interesting class: Member # Poster Name Date Registered 2936 TedRuxpin 8/1/2001 2940 Deuce 8/1/2001 2946 Manny Ramirez 8/1/2001 2952 NJRockFan 8/2/2001 2957 Ninja Sauce X 8/2/2001 2971 Dave2000 8/4/2001 2981 TBar 8/6/2001 2982 RaptorsDynasty 8/6/2001 2983 Dave Jamerson 8/7/2001 2988 kirkit 8/7/2001 2989 krosfyah 8/7/2001 3015 deepellumrocket 8/10/2001 3016 ricerocket 8/10/2001 3024 Fobinator 8/11/2001 3028 BlackBullard#41 8/11/2001 3034 don grahamleone 8/11/2001 3038 Roc Paint 8/12/2001 3044 Festeral Otto 8/13/2001 3049 RocketRaccoon 8/13/2001 3057 francis 4 prez 8/15/2001 3066 paikj83 8/17/2001 3069 FreePosterBoy 8/17/2001 3070 chewy 8/17/2001 3089 Apollo Creed 8/25/2001 3098 KellyDwyer 8/30/2001 Some of these posters need to be explained: BlackBullard#41 has only 1 post but is obviously a troll with a name like that. Fobinator and RaptorsDynasty are 2 other trolls. FreePosterBoy also has only 1 post but his moniker was dubbed "the worst BBS name to have in prison according to Will". Ninja Sauce X is a banned poster. Festeral Otto is one of the best under 100 posters. Not many in this class has over 1,000 posts except for me, francis 4 prez, and Roc Paint. TBar and deepellumrocket are 2 of my underrated unknown posters here. Finally, I didn't list but also in this class were Verona Lemon (6 total posts), Hakeem, Raptor (1 post that was marked "Flooding troll's post deleted"), and Bullard's Ghost which has 0 posts. Maybe I'll do these other classes or maybe not.
Sonny(#2340) and mfclark(#2319), hey neighbors. my next door neighbors are deadbeats SilverandBlackFan(#2330) with one post about the Kings and the Spurs and somewhere in "pa nj" is Big Ralph Sampson(#2332) who had this to say "I dont think Chinese guys are good enough to be in this league, I think Don Nelson is a innovative guy with some of his moves like the Thin Towers of Manute BOl and Ralph Sampson, Run TMC, Paul Pressey at the point forward, Dirk Nowit but this is flat out stupid. The NBA talent level is depleted with high school players and under class man right now. These China men are so slow and clumsy it is not even funny. I played ball with a couple of Asian guys and i found them to be very awkward. i was scared they would foul me in a bad spot and hurt me. The NBA needs to concentrate on American players not 7 foot stiffs. " longest...... offseason...... ever.......
My neighbors are... #1843 - Air Langhi - 12 posts total, last posted on Sep. 19, 2002 in the thread Who will help the Rockets more? Ming or Griffin? and... #1845 - LeisureSuitMoochie - 14 posts total, last posted on Sep. 26, 2002 in the thread NFL Suicide League - Week 4
Some of us just lurk. I lurked for 2 years before registering. I was registered for 2 years before posting. I only began posting this summer because I am excited about the upcoming season. I will probably go back into lurk mode when the season begins. I feel like I know most all of the regular posters after all this time and I get all of my Rocket news from this site usually someone posts what I want to know anyway.
I was a lurker for over a year, then I registered the day Clutch made everyone register who wanted to read threads. I have a feeling alot of lurkers registered on that day, so I doubt many people will have a high post count by me. I was right #4562- robertg 06-12-2002 Total Posts: 2 (0.02 posts per day) Last Post: 06-20-2002 #4564-cheif yahoo (cool name) 06-12-2002 Total Posts: 0 (0.00 posts per day) Last Post: Never If either of you are lurking, please post!

I think you are right, Baseballa. I registered a day before you, I think, and there are over a 100 members between us!
Hey! Somehow I get the feeling that the March 2001 class isn't a very strong one, with all of the deadbeats in the middle, but oh well.
