Congratulations genebren jw0752Jan Cumpsjw0752the forum now has 3 super stars with points in the 300K range.

It takes serious effort to amass that many points, but if it is fun, then you are having a serious amount of fun.

    Hi John,

     

    Nice to see that you are still monitoring the forum. The element14 staff have been doing an excellent job of keeping the level of interest up and have provided competitions and educational opportunities for just about every ones interests. Check in when you can. Your advice and ideas were always a big help to me in the past and I bet many of the newer members could also benefit from your experience.

     

    John

    Hi Peter,

     

    Nice to know you still keep in touch with the community.

     

    I assume you have been busy with your other activities.

    I don't think these matter when you have 100.000s of points. They make up a tiny % then, even if you do all of them.

    I have completed very few and end up with 300K points. If I'd do them all I'd still have 300K points.

     

    My theory is that it is because of being here for a long time and staying active all that time. John and I are here for almost the same time, are both active on a regular base and we end up with the same number (give-take a %).

    Yes these were some of the best. I always enjoyed vsluiter as his answers were very technical and advanced and yet they were clear enough so I could always get some pearls of wisdom out of them. Robert Peter Oakes  I would be surprised if Peter isn't still around in the back ground and watching over us. He was very active in his own site which may have eventually taken too much of his time. fvan is a very knowledgeable and great guy. I miss his posts and participation. Another guy we haven't heard much from is Problemchild who was also a really good contributor.
