The point, as i see it, is that to be a real JYD...it has nothing to do with # of posts. That is just a milestone that someone came up with to provide some quantifiable measure for determining a status. It was, and is arbitrary.
As an example. Tom is JYD #1. Now, Tom is a great guy, and I don't think many here could argue differently. He's fair and welcoming and charming with the ladies. However, just because he has posted more than 1k posts has nothing to do with why people appreciate and/or respect him. They are mutually exclusive events.
So, draw a line. JYD is just a post status. This is a forum, and most forums place status / value on # of posts...because there is no other way to quantify the relationship. Thus, we should be careful when drawing comparisons of JYD as it relates to being proud of being a ScrapYard Fan and a part of this local online community.
JYD #121 The chief cause of unhappiness and failure is trading what you want most in life for what you want at the moment.
