Of course no one is counting, but occasionally I check this top poster list. I have been on a bit of a tear lately so my position is up there at the moment. Otherwise, very familiar names, except for... may I ask, who is Zedd?
He has made 1164 total post. From Vancouver, BC I assume. Registered in 2016. I have it on good authority he is a world famous musician.
You need to try and keep up Dan!!...lol

“Amazing! I’ll be working with Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker, Art Tatum, and Buddy Rich, and you’re telling me it’s not that great of a gig? “Well…” Saint Peter, hesitated, “God’s got this girlfriend who thinks she can sing…”
Eh, that list just shows who has been posting away lately. Real heavy hitters (think lifetime batting average) are found in the User List .. sort by Posts.
Even in that list, MusicStudent, you made first page, so you got that going for you.
That said, there are only two of us who have made it half way to the legendary Mac number. And he hasn't posted in years. We're all amateurs compared to him. 90% percent of his posts were really valuable to boot.
/except the day he ran around here blaming everything on me .. took me reading a few posts to realize he was making fun of someone else who had blamed me for something.
He wasn't around long after that .. wait, that doesn't sound right; his leaving was NOT my fault!

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome Make your sound your own!
Seems like some one is punking me here. When I do a search for his name it shows no posts in 2021? So where has he posted 124 times in the past 30 days?
That must be what it is. I don't have access to the Beta testing forums and therefore cannot see his recent post count. That's probably Dan's issue too.
Only because we asked them not to, and they made the change. But that was for Windows. Also, I’m not even sure if it’s still in effect. I think mine went up.
BIAB 2026 Win Audiophile. Software: Fender Studio One 8, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6, Song Master Pro, Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Presonus Quantom HD8 & Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors.
Counting posts in the Mac beta Forum is the only explanation to the mystery! You have to be real chatty (in a good, bad or indifferent way) to generate 124 posts in 30 days! It takes a real effort. I know.
Some including me are beta testers. And like many others we are active in the User Showcase. A lot of testing was recently done prior to the recent 2021 Mac release and that likely skews the count. The beta forums are only available to testers but it looks like we appear in the overall count. BTW Zedd is a good guy!
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos
FWIW, this type of post is exactly why we asked for beta posts to not show in that list.
Especially around new release time. People started asking us about the new release because they saw our post counts and noticed us being less than normally active on the public forums so they put 2 and 2 together.
I assumed they made the rule for all beta forums, but who knows. Quite a few of us would have much higher post counts if those got beta forums counted at all.
Maybe Simon can clear it up. Did something get reset?

I wouldn't know myself, but I'll ask the powers that be to look into it so we will know for sure.
*edit*
Posts in the Mac beta forum do increment the post count. We're pretty sure it's that way for the Windows beta forum as well.

Frankly, I don't think it matters if posts are counted. Beta testing is hard work. Lots of issues are found and resolved because of this undertaking. What can be derived is that others are putting in an effort to the benefit of all.
BIAB & RB2026 Win.(Audiophile), Windows 10 Pro & Windows 11, Cakewalk Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Session Keys Grand S & Electric R, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M, Pioneer Active Monitors.
I have ZERO concern over my beta posts adding to my total of, well, posts.

Yes, and I would like to thank all of the beta testers for their hard work.
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!
