    This is pretty ridiculous, and not meant to be taken seriously, just something I thought of (must be from all of the baseball I've been watching lately).

    We have our post counts on here, and our posts per day stats... imagine if there was some kind of "Posts Batted In" (like RBI's). For example, you start a thread and there ends up being 168 replies or something. 168 PBI's.

    Like I said, really silly, I just thought of it the other day and felt like sharing. I think whoever started the "Song Uno" thread in Misc. would be a top contender :D

    Alright, I can't figure out how to delete this dang thread. I clicked edit, but there's no option to delete. I clicked Thread Tools and it's not there either.

    Gimme a hand.

    Hahaha. The option to delete has been taken away. You could just edit your first post to say nothing then change your title to "mods please delete."

    No he can't!!! By virtue of receiving replies!!! So...

    This is an awesome idea. I think the person opening the fart thread would win hands down. Can the administrators set up some kind of reporting tool for us please LOL?

    I think the Man Law thread is up to about 600. I could be wrong.

    My longest sentence thread is up to almost 2,200. And, it's a lot of fun, too!

    I can't believe you're pimping your own thread to boost your PBI... Sheesh. :eyebrow:

    Don't you think it might hurt some other members self-esteem though? I mean, we can't all make a winner. That's why Soulgeezer goes for quality over quantity. Major Metal is just trying to fill in an emptiness that he has in his soul.

    Really though, that's creative.

    Well ya know, it would be a part of the board system, just like post counts. Except how many responses there are to all of your threads.

    Song Uno and the Longest Sentence threads are doing pretty good. The SX bass thread got so long Paul had to start it over! :)
