You've authored more than 3000 posts in the last 90 days. That's more than 1.3 posts per hour, every single hour, every single day, for 3 months.

When do you eat and sleep?

A lot of that time would be better spent phone banking for Bernie. It's easy to forget that the web is not the world.

If a poster made 3000 posts in a week and made an average of 2.5 posts every 5 minutes, but only had 2450 posts the following week......

Sometimes I make a whole bunch of posts in a very short time. I don't keep exact count, so I could only guess at the numbers. Sometimes I'm not on DU for a few days.

Whatever my averages might be, I'm not posting at some "average" rate, like 2.5 posts every five minutes. Who gives as flying fuck?

I do notice that there are DUers whose accounts were started in 2012 or 2008, and who appear to have suddenly posted a whole lot in the last 90 days -- which is the statistic that DU actually keeps. Invariably those posters are Hillarybots, which certainly does rais my suspicions.

I think that if Hillary is nominated this site will lose a lot of posters, and soon thereafter will lose a lot of star members who will no longer be contributing money to this site.

and was soooo disappointed that she couldn't go see Bernie at his rally here in Summit. There's no way she could have stood in the line. I wish he would make an exception at his rallys and allow seniors to be admitted and seated early.

I asked her if there were other women Bernie supporters in her complex. She said not too many of them. Most are members of the Hillary old biddy brigade. (her words)

Since she only watches CNN and MSNBC I print up as many Bernie articles as I can for her. There was so much she didn't know thanks to MSM. That includes things she didn't know about Hillary. I happily filled her in on that too.
