Why the hell are there so many topics? Why don't people just stop making them?

Let me point out that you are contributing to the flood of new topics by making a new topic.
And the reason there are so many is that Shinobi feels compelled to make a new topic to share everything he thinks about with us.

I find that Shinobi makes almost as many posts as he does topics.

Well, on that note I'm going to hijack this topic and point it toward a rather stupid question.

The new purpose of this topic: A query

How many topics (this figure can be ballpark) have you created in your long and illustrious webboard career?

I've created exactly three: This or That Revival and Desert Willow on the B&B, and Olympic Sport here.

I am thinking 3, but my last one got locked up rather quickly do to people stripping. On an interesting side note, I actually bothered to count µ's topics from the last 20 days (of this post)and there were 6. Which means that µ's estimation is probably not accurate whatsoever due to her posting a new topic about once every 3 1/3 days In December alone. Shinobi on the other hand had 8 topics in 7 days, which is more than 1 topic a day.

I've lost count. Anywhere from 100 to maybe 800.

If you have no life, you can try the search engine and count them all up for yourself. Plus about 5, because those are hidden in a private forum you wouldn't be able to see.

Quite a few. I don't really know exactly, because some were things that i would deny writing 3 days later(something about macadamia nuts comes to mind) and several were pleas for help of Just Tech, so....

I have no idea. Yeah. Okay.

I've probably made a total of about 30 topics... 10 on B&B, 10 on the EV Developer's Corner, and another ten scattered around the EV board, Just Chat, and Just Tech.
