I didn't actually mean the 1000 and 2000 as though no one had that number (I just included it for emphasis).
A pity that OT posts aren't counted anymore though, isn't it...

It took me like a year to make King. I used to post ten to twenty times a day. Now I struggle to post five times within 24 hours.

I shall likely remain at "King" status for the forseeable future, as my RL obligations (i.e. job) curtail my activity at 'Poly. That, plus the AI stresses me out in Civ II with its cheats, so I'm constantly swearing off the game and then (like an addict) going back to it when time permits (and emotions and tempered).

I made King back earlier this year, probably in April or so. Hit 2000 right after thanksgiving. So my posting rate has been increasing.

Trip or Chris62 was the fastest... Chris reached it in about 3-6 months; I know for a fact that he reached Emperor about 2-3 months ahead of me... thus, he reached it sometime about May-June-July 2001... thus- 5-7 months. I think... Trip took about the same amount of time, I believe.

Didn't someone get a 5000 post reduction once?

I think AH managed to get a 2000 reduction
And Mao once lost 10000 posts 
Although it was only a 1000 post reduction; he then reached deity again and had his account reset to 0 
then he posted about 50 times and mark reset him to 110000 posts

I'm just over half way to Emperor, but I've been here since March (although I was away on holiday for a whole month during that time).
That works out at 5.32 posts per day for me. By comparison Skanky's going at 6.50 per day.
Trip has a whooping 14.14 posts per day.
Can anyone beat Meshelic's 17.36?

/edit: Mesh only registered on 26th September of this year and already has 1500+ posts. That's gotta be the fastest since OT posts stopped counting!

I made it to king in about 6-8 months. Now I'm spending more time in the OT forums so it's going to go a lot slower now. Besides as Mel Brooks said:

Either quote works for me, in fact when I made King I used The Bruce Campbell quote in a post.
 ACK!

17.36 is nothing...
Like I said earlier in the thread, I used to have over 22 in my prime.

There have been a lot of clearouts of posts, I have received numerous PCRs, and OT posts don't count...I would estimate that my 'real' post count would be somewhere in the region of 20000...

We are at the mercies of the powers-that-be here Taz. At the rate I go I would have probably overtaken everyone else by now, but there is a conspiracy to hold me back, and now, I doubt I will ever make Deity again

Trip- Mao managed 22.00 post average around Aug 2000... and by that time he had "leveled-off" in posting... He reached Deity after only about a year registered
he registered the same time as ming- but in 1999
...I doubt even the venerable trip can conquer Mao's spamming
But I wish him luck
