well I've finally made it, would have done so last week if the forum wasn't so quiet.

For a reward I'm hoping Ads will give me moderator privileges so I can change DB's avatar daily hahah

Well done Wokks, all this posting may increase your GAS. You'll develop RSI from all the typing, be unable to play guitar as much so have to build more!

The PBG staff have just had a phone conference.
We have determined that Woks needs an intervention session........

Congrats Warren, but I don't know how you do it.

Mate, you have been a great source of encouragement and help to me and most, if not all, the other members here. Take the rest of the night off and put your feet up.

Cheers

I wonder how many hours equates to 10,000 posts?? ... 1/2 hr per post that equals 3 1/2 months !! Well done!:)

Well done Woks, top effort to get to 10k. When we met, you would have had bugger all posts back then!

As for the mod status, not in your lifetime :D

actually Euroa, 15 mins per post would be about 3.5 months

average post time would be much less than that unless you were going into detail about a more complicated stage of the build !

I wondered if you would work it out... my maths wasn't too good at 5am:)

HAHA no worries Euroa, I was just curious and checked your calculation !

haha good try DB, but that title is reserved for Ben of Crimson Guitars hahha

dingobass
14-06-2016, 05:27 PM
Alrighty then.
Your choices are,
Status title is changed to Muppet, or PBG starts charging you for server space :D

wazkelly

Congrats mate. You are a legend and a true inspiration for many others through your build threads (not too many of them lately) and also your kind words, comments, guidance and encouragement.

Must have a good boss who ignores the time spent on this forum. Unfortunately this and many other sites are banned on my employer's server which makes for a rather long & dull day.

Must be time for DB to pour you a beer and let you out of the naughty warehouse for a few hours to celebrate.

cheers Waz and Pabs
@ Waz thanks for the kind words, no way my boss knows I am on the forum during work time ! I actually enjoy the naughty warehouse and chances of DB giving me release are zero haha

@ DB thanks for the 2 options there - will be like voting in the election - vote for the best of 2 carp options haha

I am simply using wokkas thread to boost my own posts.....

Dedman
15-06-2016, 04:43 PM
I use Doc's but I'm not adverse to sharing them around.

wokkaboy
15-06-2016, 04:44 PM
bwhahah good one Stan, well you are probably the 3rd highest poster, think DB is second
you only got 1203 posts to be a GAStronomist mate !

@ Dedman good one mate !

Considering he mentioned it in every comment coming up his 10K post, I don't think any of us saw it coming!!!

But just to make sure we didn't miss it, he then creates a special thread just for it, so everyone can congratulate him on something we had no idea was coming!!! :p

EDIT: Oh, look out, I better create a new thread soon, almost to 0.1k posts!!!

Ahh yes , another great source of post count raising , thanks for the reminder

dingobass
17-06-2016, 06:10 PM
And Woks thinks I was kidding when I suggested that PBG might have to start charging him for server space.......

Nickosaurus

New title: Bandwidth Bandit

wazkelly
19-06-2016, 08:38 PM
So does that mean upon exceeding 10,000 posts you go from being a GAStrononmist to Bandwidth Bandit?

Can't think of a better idea or should someone start a poll?

dingobass
19-06-2016, 09:21 PM
I still prefer Muppet.....

wokkaboy
19-06-2016, 11:30 PM
Very funny fellas. I'll stick to GAStronomist pretty well sums it up. I'm not a Muppet and I'm not paying for server space!

stan
20-06-2016, 07:43 AM
what ever they call you wokks, you are an awesome contributor

wazkelly
20-06-2016, 05:08 PM
Well said Stan.

dingobass
20-06-2016, 06:27 PM
Still a Muppet :D

20-06-2016, 07:48 PM
Thanks for the kind words Stan and Waz.
Thanks for nothing DB!!

Hi Kells, didn't know you were old enough to remember the muppet show? Just in case you may have forgotten, here are some of the cast to help you remember.....

Just make the 10K title 'Wokka'... then whenever someone starts spamming posts we can say "they're doing a Wokka" ;)

wokkaboy
20-06-2016, 09:50 PM
Haha good one Weirdy

wazkelly
21-06-2016, 08:41 PM
Just make the 10K title 'Wokka'... then whenever someone starts spamming posts we can say "they're doing a Wokka" ;)

That is the best suggestion so far as it will take ages for anyone else to reach 10,000 posts by which time Woks would have reached 50,000 or more.

keloooe
21-06-2016, 08:54 PM
Nah waz, missed out on the whole muppets craze but I managed to somehow let it bleed into my life so I was always a massive fan as a little Pest!

wazkelly
21-06-2016, 08:59 PM
The Muppets originally started on Sesame Street which is probably how you became infiltrated by them from an early age.

vh2580
22-06-2016, 04:59 AM
Muppet has my vote

stan
22-06-2016, 07:58 AM
maybe Bandwidth Hog...

wokkaboy
22-06-2016, 08:43 AM
thanks for all the suggestions fellas. I refuse to be called a Muppet as that is what DB calls pain in the bums or fools.
@ Stan Bandwidth hog isn't bad but think I'll stick to GAStronmomist pretty well sums me up. You re only 1169 posts away Stan !

@ Tony love your pic that's a classic !

stan
22-06-2016, 09:23 AM
if we stretch this thread out , i'll be there in no time...

stan
22-06-2016, 09:24 AM
.. or if i updated a few of my own...

stan
22-06-2016, 09:24 AM
see how i turned one post into 3 there?

wokkaboy
22-06-2016, 09:35 AM
haha nice work Stan, if you work on about 20 posts per day you will be a GAStronomist in about 2 months !

stan
22-06-2016, 09:41 AM
learning from the master...

wokkaboy
22-06-2016, 09:56 AM
haha that's it Stan, what you need is for Doc to be firing and have a Stan and Doc show - that will chew up a few more posts

stan
22-06-2016, 12:42 PM
dont know if i could keep up, my fingers would be bleeding...

wokkaboy
22-06-2016, 12:46 PM
haha nah you will be fine Stan, you are pumping out the posts todaz !

your fingers should have calluses from guitar playing anyway !

stan
22-06-2016, 05:40 PM

Classic! I always loved Floyd Pepper I reckon he must have got into my subconscious mind when I was a kid.

Floyd was my favourite too! Loved Rolf and Sam the eagle as well. The Muppets was such a great show, the new version is really pitiful.

Did you know...

haha love the pic of Floyd Pepper, I only realised my avatar was changed this morning, I put money on that DB did it !
One of the rare times I like my new avatar so it's a keeper ! Pity whoever knocked it up got the spelling wrong

wazkelly
23-06-2016, 02:18 PM
Don't you remember that Fozzy Bear used to always say wocka, wocka, wocka at the end of his sentences and punch lines?

wokkaboy
23-06-2016, 02:43 PM
hey Waz, yes I remember that, but I would have spelt it Wokka Wokka and 'here' should be 'hear'

all good I love my new avatar !

wazkelly
23-06-2016, 02:59 PM
Better that some I have seen over past 9 months since joining the forum. Worst was probably the Will Robinson nerdy shot.

wokkaboy
23-06-2016, 03:17 PM
haha yeah Waz I have been given some pretty damn average avatars mainly from DB, don't worry I will pay him back sometime, somewhere, somehow hahha
