que?

The thread title calls it a "16 year anniversary" and 2019 is 17 years after 2002. Several others have noticed it, too.

ah yes...

however

my first anniversary didn't happen until I had been here a year...which would have been 2003

so from 2003 to 2019 is only 16 anniversaries as opposed to 17 years as a lurker

Sorry, but it would be your 17th anniversary. 2003 (your 1st) + an additional 16 years = 17 anniversaries.

Congratulations! That’s a lot of contributions to the discussions over the years.
I joined about 6 months behind you but you have about 88 times the number of posts. Partly due to being deployed a lot, partly because i lurk some, but mostly because honestly by the time I get on most questions have already been answered and my 2 cents wouldn’t add to the conversation.

Well, he's made more than twice as many posts as I have (and probably more useful ones, too), and I'm probably considered a "post whore" by some. Nevertheless, I enjoy his posts a lot.
