Such a shame. It's a missed opportunity for a noob to annoy the shit out of the old timers with our wisdom and opinions, not to mention the occasional question that's been asked a thousand times.
More opportunities for me I guess. 馃槈
Do you know how to wind a Speedmaster? I don鈥檛 think it鈥檚 ever been asked here before. Am I even asking in the right thread?
So, I finally hit 200 posts.
I started on June 25th and hit the threshold by July 20th.
I thought it would take me 3 or 4 months to get done.
I don't have any watch to sell and I don't have any desire to comment on any of the "for sale" threads, so I'm in no hurry for the administrators to turn that feature on for me.
During this month, I didn't sell any watches, and, much to my wife's anguish, I actually bought yet another watch (Gemini IV Speedy Pro).

In hindsight, I think the 200 post requirement is both fair and very do-able.
There are dozens of general interest threads to post in, including cars, art, vacations, art, sarcasm, pets, NASA, music records, clocks, motorcycles, foreign travel,what watch you're wearing today, what you are listening to today, etc.
At least 30 of my posts were low-quality filler kind of stuff, so I have no problem if the site administrators want to subtract some.
I enjoy this site and like the open and honest feedback that is provided.
At this point I have 201 post and 564 likes. I was hoping for a 3:1 ratio of likes to posts, but I'm happy where I ended up. "Likes" aren't too important in the grand scheme of life IMHO.

Wow, I went and clicked on the Watches For Sale thread and the Private Watch Sales threads and it appears I already have the ability to add a thread or comment on an existing thread.
Not sure if that was manually done by an admin person or if it is automated in the forum website, but thanks.
I'd like to say "I'm speechless", but that is actually the situation I feel I'm in.
I have "the power" to post, but nothing worthy enough to actually post there. 馃榾

I was accused of post farming early on, I was just excited to be a part of the gang.
