I'm going to just preserve this here for future reference, so people won't need to dig through some archives or caches.

You've spend 200 days on the forum?  :o
I'm not pleased with the milestone post. It should have been something spectacular.

I echo the latter sentiment, but at the time I was in exposing-another-scammer mode, feeling it was more important to the community.

Which scammer did you expose ? and congrats on 20Kth  post .

I have a better idea. How 'bout I post 9,971 in the next 5 days, then pen an epic 30,000th one?

To prove I'm serious, only 9,970 posts to go.

So what :p spending 200days on a forum :p just tells me how much he loves this community :p or how much he hates his life..! but in both cases I'll congratulate him..! :p 20K posts are not easy to achieve .!

With RitzGrandCasino.com signature program you would have made 0.0013BTC x 20000 = 26BTC :D
That's a lot money :O

200/3 = 66.6 days per year. He spent about 20% of his year here.
It's not a lot even if BTC was worth $1000; 26 000$ over 3 years is pocket money.

Congrats. Now try to see how long you can go without logging on, or using the internet.

Would you believe I run a very successful reclaimed barn wood business on the side? Also, twice a week I spend time with my black autistic friend who was traumatize when young, and thanks to my efforts he's just starting to speak again? Or, you could believe like others that I'm a racist fuck.

The guy's name is Larry (damn, I don't know his last name, though I wouldn't publish it if I did), and he loves dancing to ANY music on the radio. If his dancing was shown on YouTube, they would surely garner 10s of millions of views, bringing immense awareness to autism, not to mention the enjoyment of watching the videos. (my eyes are welling up - in a good way - just thinking about it)

Sadly, or wisely (probably is), images of any kind can't be taken, let alone exploited, especially for profit.

Since the state of Illinois has considerably cut back funding, a year and half ago the non-profit group was about to loose the home where Larry lives till I stepped in and started to pay the rent. I just learnt two months ago that since a property manager manages the leasing of the home, their take is 33% of the monthly lease. It gladden me to learn that I'm able to keep them in business. BTW, they lease out 9 other homes in the area to the same group, one being a farm of which I already committed myself to grow a garden on this year, with all the harvest going to that particular house and the 9 others.

No, I'm not asking, nor will accept any bitcoin donations. I have it covered. And, apologies for bragging.

Back to the sentiment expressed to the post I quoted, I do find time to jerk off every other day - at least - if anybody is interested. But don't tell Larry, for he believes me to be a Saint.

Peace, all.

PS: You wouldn't believe who called me today. I'll give you a hint: 5 letters starting with an A and and ending in an S. Please don't make me map it out for you any further. BTW, he said he's been drug-free for awhile now and no longer into blue lights.

U really need to go outside and get some fresh air away from your pc.
