Wow Birddog. You've just hit the impressive milestone of 10,000 posts.

Gary has asked that we only comment on significant posting milestones (ie one's ending in 000) - I guess this one well and trully qualifies since it's got even more zeroes


Just to put that post count into perspective, as of this writing that's almost as many as the combined total posts of the next two highest posters (Gary + sirhc55 = 10558). This place DEFINITELY is what it is in large part because of your tireless and selfless efforts.

You and your charming wife graciously host our Sydney mini meets, feeding the masses stomachs and their lens lust at the same time.

You act as conduit to Poon and other suppliers of equipment needed by us and deliver it to us at incredible prices with no thought on your part to derive a profit from this endeavour. In fact you take time away from your business activities to do this for the benefit of the forum.

You prod us to participate in other activities and are always there to help us out when we have problems with gear, or lack of knowledge.

And finally, as one who has the honour to count you amongst my friends, you're a bloody good bloke as well.

I look forward to the next 10,000 posts.

Thank you for everything you have done for me and the forum as a whole.

Edit: And interestingly you broke the forum software. Your post count was reset to 0 in the Author area at the side of your posts when you hit 10,000 (although it still shows correctly in the member list !!!!

congrats birgdog...always a fountain of knowledge on this forum...

ps if he is back to 0 posts ... does that mean he cant offer the bargains in the bargain section until he reaches 50 again? not that that would take long... :

Congratulations for hitting the mark twice Birdy!

Well done Birddog - See you tomorrow for more fun & games & fine company...

The fastest keyboard operator in photography.

No, the software isn't broken.

It's been specially set up to imitate the behaviour of a D70 when it hits 10000 images.

Truly one of those rare and unique characters on the internet. I'd love to meet you in person one day.

And for Thanh, congratulations from all 1350+ of us here on reaching zero posts!

That's once around the block, and time to start again.

Do ya feel lucky?

I feel him breathing down my neck already!

Well done Birddog - a true achievement.

Congratulations Birddog/Thanh - certainly a testiment of all your generous efforts.

Birddog, a truly amazing acheivement. Thank you for everything

We have never met (yet ) but I already feel like I know you. What a milestone

To echo Oneputt's comment, I feel the same, have been around for 12 months now, (mostly "Lurking") and feel as though I know you Birdy.

Your thoughts and comments are part of what makes this forum such a great and enjoyable place!!

10k is a lot of posts!!
at the rate I post that should take me 100 or so years
Congrats Birdie

I joined this site on the same day as you and after all this time there's only a zero between us, doesn't sound so bad when I put it that way.

Wow! That's the number! Congratulations!!!

Birdy,
For a long time I have wondered how the heck you do all you do on the forum and keep Dancom alive and functioning so well, as well as support your beautiful family...your time management skills must be impecible and/or you need very little sleep!? What's your secret mate?
