What? Were you planning to keep Wombat’s induction a secret or something? Come on! Noblesse oblige and all that! We sub-K posters need our royalty and our spectacles!
Though unworthy to offer them, let me extend my congratulations, Wombat, on your milestone!

Hear,hear.
Funny thing is, Wombly’s posts are so long that he should have received this on an honorary basis long ago. There are two kinds of big-time posters, the one-liners and the thinkers. He’s definitely a thinker, and a helpful one at that (especially since he has amassed a wide variety of instruments, records, etc.etc).
Best wishes to another poster I hope to meet in person someday! 
HOORAY!!!
And here’s to a terrific guy.
Hat’s off to ya, Wombat.
Best wishes,
Jerry
Congratulations Wombat, have enjoyed all your postings.

Ditto, mate! 
Hey, there, Wombly! I blindly assumed you were already a bikiloposteur, too. Leave it to Carol…me, I don’t seem to see past my nose. I would have hoped for some kind of incisive treatise out of you to mark the occasion, but your gravitas would be compromised, no doubt. I expect it’s hard enough to maintain it with such an achingly cute animal for yer nick.
Echo, ecco!
Thanks very much dear friends for your well wishes as I reach this new millstone.
I decided that my 2K post should be succinct, pithy, terse, to the point, rather like:
Let’s see if this works. :roll:
Then I got realistic and just buried it amongst all the rest. Well actually it just kinda happened. More a lost object than a found object. There I was at 5.00am in the morning thinking, it might be a good idea to go to bed, but first I simply must compare Olwell flutes with Spike Jones records for durability and bark. And there it was, 2K posts.
Thanks everyone for making this such a wonderful place to be.
There have been a few people entered into the 1000 Club, but not the 2000 Club.
Go figure.
Flipping heck..an acceptance speech!
Well, well done Wombat

Congratulations to the Wombat who didn’t eat, roo… err… I mean, well done!
Are you sure there’s only two? Where do I fit in this dichotomy? Mayhaps I’m just a lurker, really.
Yeah. I didn’t even know there was a separate club for 2,000 posters!

Of course there are more than two types of posts. Weekenders over-simplified things. If you’re going to categorize posts, their length is not the way to do it, because having a post or response that lasts several paragraphs does not necessarily mean you thought more than the person(s) with a much shorter post, even if it consists one line (or less). It simply means you took more time to compose it. Nothing more, and nothing less.
A good example (although not the only one) is the Dada stuff. Some of those posts were quite long, with very little apparent thought. On the opposite end, many of jim stone’s posts are one line or less, and still more thoughtful than the above mentioned posts which go on forever and ever.

If we don’t belong, there isn’t.
There should be a special category for folks like me, who only make on-topic posts.
I propose a three category system:
Diverse posters, such as
The Weekenders
Bloomfield
Martin Milner
DaleWisely
Cranberry
Glauber
Redwolf
On-topic posters, such as
jim_mc
Walden
avanutria
Loren
peeplj
Philosoposters, such as
jim stone
Nanohedron
Wombat
Blackbeer
Jerry Freeman
Okay. Due to an issue pointed out to me by another member of th C&F Forums, a subcategory for the Philosoposters has been instituted:
Posters who like to post about a mouse, about whistle technical issues, as well as philosophy and political issues, yet don’t quite fit the Diverse Posters category, such as
Jerry Freeman
Better make that four:
Incomprehensible posters, such as
Zoob…ouch, hail of under-ripe Brie flies this way…again…
OK, owing to SPS (Simultaneous Posting Syndrome), better make that five…
Trisha
I would, personally have classified Jerry under
Hip Posters…not so much due to his up-to-the-minute stylishness, as to his unerring ability to post Hip, Hip, postings on a fairly regular basis?
