Yikes! In fairness 90,000 posts is a lot to have under the one name. Hopefully he returns under another guise.

Like the other First Ones his time has past, boards now belongs to us the younger posters.

Mike65 has left us and is headed to rejoin all posters those whom he misses so much, in that great darkness between boards and... a nearby server.

Ok.

I always wonder why some posters make such a song and dance about leaving a site.

I think he was afraid that if he got to 100k then the Mikelenium Bug would end up exploding boards or summit.

He must have. 90000 x by the time it takes to make a post (even one of mike one liners) is a big chunk of time . Think of all the fresh air he 's missed .

Along with the first 4 posters in this thread. A phenomenon which merits further investigation.

He'll be sadly missed, especially from the Liverpool threads and the SF, which is where I would have had most dealings with Mike.

Said it elsewhere, but my slight OCD is now greatly annoyed at him for leaving on 90,093 posts.

Feck sake, Mike. 7 more posts even!

To out OCD you Knex, 3 less would have left a sort-of odd symmetry to the post count. Mike, how could you? 90090

Next poster to reach 90k+ posts will probably be living on the Moon, posting telepathically through Google Brain.

I can safely say this is the first time I've ever heard his name so he may have had a ridiculous amount of posts but none that stood out in my opinion.

I for one welcome the new and improved Mike66. I believe his dial-up has been upgraded to single line isdn, and he welcomes gifs with open arms.

Joking aside, i'll miss your contribution to the Liverpool threads Mike, hope this is just a change of account rather than a permanent thing.
