With a combined total of over 30,000 posts among us, it was an opportunity for gaining a deep and informed perspective on the Forum.

Stop teasing us, what did y'all discuss?

(I think that I'm among core as of now.)

Grats on Core Phej.

I'm mildly envious. I haven't gone to dinner with any forum INTJs.

Ok, the choices are Rudy, Synamon, and Wapiti. Nikita, I think, is off in Peace Corp land.

Technically, Monte314 didn't say that the three of them had made a total of 30,000 posts, much less did he say that the three of them made 30,000 posts on the INTJf. All he said is that three core members met for dinner, and that some group of people he associated himself with for some (potentially very brief) period of time had a total of 30,000 posts from wherever (possibly multiple places), and that "it" (which does not have to be a reference back to "dinner" in the forum title) "was an opportunity for gaining a deep and informed perspective on" some kind of a forum, which he refers to as "the Forum". We shouldn't be too cocky as to believe that he must be referring to the INTJf.

Iunno, my guess would be loosefanbelt, and then Wapiti as the third to make up the combined total of more than 30k posts.

Ah, so it was a dinner with Rudy and Synamon.

And since the three of you live rather far from one another, can I assume it was in some sort of chatroom or in a phone conference?

It wasn't me (I don't think Monte would want to have dinner with me at the present time,) it wasn't Nikita (who was out of the country,) and it wasn't Synamon (according to her.) So, Monte must be referring to post counts including more than just this forum, as Fanowene speculates, because there is no set of three members, including Monte, but not including myself, Nikita or Synamon, who have 30,000 posts between them.

Likely Squirrel. It's a delicacy in the forum restaurant.

I'm guessing it was Monte, Schwartzie, Synch and Roz. Synch and Roz really are the same person and so their post counts are combined.

What? There are other forums? And if there are, wouldn't Intjf be "the forum" of all the forums?

I will state that I was not present. Also, for the record, Synch and I are not the same person. Being engaged to myself would be very odd.

And actually, he said 3 core members...but the paper has members that are not core that would have been at the meeting.

Ergo, there were 3 core members, among a greater number of members.
All members of the gathering having combined for over 30,000 posts.
