Milestones

4000 up tbh. About to hit that on Planet Cricket as well. First one to do so on both major cricket forums?
Slut :p

2,000.

One of the worst strike rates, I guess.
Mine dropped pretty dramatically when my accounts got merged. Mind you it was never flash to begin with.

If you were aware of the existence of this thread, did you have to start a thread in OT saying the exact same thing? Fishing for compliments or something?

Cut him some slack. He's only 10 and there are plenty enough posters around here who boast every other day about inane milestones. You can hardly expect him to completely ignore precedent.

Nah, he's been hassled for starting pointless threads enough times that he should have the idea by now. He's ten, but he's not a moron.

The thing is, though, people start threads saying "X grand to Y" or "Another milestone to me" ATT, and rarely does anyone say "needless thread". I mean, nothing revelatory often comes out of them, but there's no harm in it IMO.

Far less of a problem than the bad old days when he was starting a thead an hour.

He's just glad that he has a thousand posts.

He honestly doesn't think their pointless cut him some slack mate.

What I don't understand, is why 16toS didn't attack Jamee999 who had done the exact same thing just prior...

I'm not blowing up at anybody, I was just providing a reason why 16toS didn't blow up at Jamee999.

Oh FFS, will you all back off? I didn't "blow up" for a start, and the only reason I commented was because andmark saw fit to trumpet his 1000 post achievement by not only creating a pointless thread in OT, but also saying so in here. As far as I'm aware, no-one else did that, so I have to assume they don't know about this thread.

As far as andmark being ten goes, he gets a little slack, but he has to realise there are all ages using these forums, and if he's intimidated by older people being forthright then perhaps he's better off not posting. At the very least he should know by now that a lot of members get annoyed at worthwhile threads being punted off the front page by people doing nothing more than egotistically banging on about their post counts in a bid to garner some compliments - and yes, that goes for whoever else saw fit to do so that day.

Heath's Milestones:

Test Runs: 20

TOTAL First Class Runs: 538 (nearly there, keep your fingers crossed!!)

Test Runs conceded: 499
ODI Runs conceded: 436
TOTAL First Class Runs Conceded: 6,693 (that one'll be a while off)

I will launch a new thread every time I pass these milestones.

Actually I dont remember him saying "I'm only ten leave me" It's other posters who say he is only ten not andmark.
