WOW!! Ok ... so the one thing we all have in common? O.C.D it's a requirement for lots of votes and @mentions, there, it's out! 

 Thanks to all those that @mention me, hopefully it's a good thing and not when I'm in trouble for something! LOL 

@Yasmine Bisumber 2 women out of 10 on the list is actually very good when you look at the sheer number of men that are members in comparison to women! Though, we can ALWAYS use more women on BP posting consistently!

    Very interesting. I'm not surprised by any of those names. All are very helpful and important people to this site. I know these are the folks I can trust experiences of, and opinions. 

    I think its fair to mention that maybe most mentioned is too open of a concept. These are all active investors, but also deal with some of the more common topics on this site such as wholesaling, property management, and flipping. 

    Perhaps Ben Leybovich will chime in to debate this list...?

    Wow, I'm proud to be at least a runner up in that list!  I wonder how someone got that information?  I guess there are tallys of pretty much all statistical information on the site by now.  Maybe one interesting one would be the top 10 posts of all time by number of replies.  I know there are some threads that have gotten into the double digits in terms of page counts.

    anyone else think it's hilarious that @Joshua D. is below @Brandon Turner on this list?.....or does it just confirm that Josh is really the site owner and Brandon is eternally in denial?

    Good stuff,

    Are there plans to make an award for mentions?

    1,000 mentions or something along those lines?

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

    @Dave Visaya - last night. 4 people at my dining table - my wife, Brandon and Heather Turner. nice, chilled bottle of Muscato:

    I say - who's this dude Dave Visaya

    Brandon says - (actually, he spills everything cause by then he's a little drunk...)

    So, I am for now willing to give you the benefit of doubt...don't mess it up!

    What?  I just knew I would have made that list twice.

    Ok...I guess I need to post more.  Perhaps providing useful information would help as well.

    I want a tenant that never calls; One

    that I never have to call.One that never gets mentioned

    in the Handyman meetings.One that never gets mentioned

    when I’m telling horror stories.

    With that in mind,

    Might as well let the top ten know - I will only try those who weren't already alerted and only if I am colleagues with them:

    @Bill Gulley

    Now that Letterman is off the air, I guess we need some more top ten lists.  :)

    @Dave Visaya you on the other hand probably don't want a lot of @mentions as they means there's something that has to be dealt with!  It's all about perspective.

    Glad to know I dropped from the top 10, freed up some time for me! Though if you count all the @mentions that didn't register with my last name often misspelled, that would account for why I didn't see any of that extra time. LOL

    In all seriousness, these statistics simply show the most active on the site. If you are active often, you will not only get mentioned often, but reap the rewards that come with those who utilize this great site on a consistent basis. Happy Investing!!!
