...When you know who's the owner of all DL's since the beginning of time... I mean, since the beginning of Apolyton
...When you have more DL's than there's posts in this thread.

...you celebrate the growth of Apolyton when it reaches the 10000, the 20000 and the 30000 members!

...you remember that MarkG beat you up in making the "20000 members" thread by seconds 2 years after!

When you make "Congrats poly another 1000 members" threads just for post count.

And people wonder if the guy that did it this time is one of your DLs.

ACK!

...When you knew that you were only one post away from the top of the list, having changed styles and checked the list only a couple of hours ago in order to calculate the % of posts which were yours (7.8% btw)...

...and then you decided that it would be prudent not to make an "I've got the (joint) most posts in this thread post", because it would be tempting a mod intervention.

...and then you see that as ixnay brough the subject up, it must be ok to post this post.

When you post a lot in the A/C forum because you are mostly an Off topic rat and A/C is the only way to increase your post count.

When the only reason you want to increase your post count is so that your average posts per day doesn't fall below 4.

ACK!

You know you spend too much time on Apolyton when your average posts per day count is above 4.

And that is taking into account the fact that I rarely post on weekends.

That's right! You spend too much time on Apolyton, when +- an hour next to your post actually matters to you.
