Now,

Zimphire is getting close to his 20 000 th.

What will the stars be like?

What's beyond "Clinically Insane"?


I fear the responses...

Is it like Kung Fu? After the Black Belt and the last dan, you return to the white belt (as I heard, not that it is true anyway..)

After Clinically Insane there is "Infinitely Prolonged" (from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy).
All the old posts will be inserted randomly in all new threads - saves a lot of time.

i'm sure your family is very proud of this achievement. assuming you have time for such things, of course, do you get special treatment when you mix with the public?

There should be a rule that you get banned the moment you hit that 20,000 post mark.
