I did years ago manage it, every post in the 1st page was mine. It used to be a joke years ago to do board domination, I did think to try again for a joke but time runs away

I don't think it would be as much fun this time .............

so many people have left that there are only a few who post regularly.

I often fond that the Board has not moved in several hours coming on as I do at Transatlantic time.

It would be too easy to fill up the Board!!

There was a time when there was a suspension for board domination, now we/they would probably be grateful for somebody to show enough interest. :-D :-D
