Well we have, over the years created 66k posts. But be aware we have migrated over to the new forum and the old posts can be dated back to 2014 so the number of posts are kind of incorrect since they were not created on discourse. Everyone is confused because they didn’t read that many posts. And they say it’s “wrong” I created my account in June this year. And yea I was ok with the number but others were confused.  
The first users summary you see is from a user that joined after me. And she did not read any of the old posts that date back to 2014.

The following topic is from 2014:
