Dude I've only been here a couple months and it's been a blast! CHEERS flurofan!!!!!!

I have only been here about 6 months, and I am already one of the top posters.

It's not about quantity of posts, it's about quality.

But you're a good bulb buddy, that's all that matters.

Thank you all 

I really really hope that Migette1 is OK and if he still alive and good, I hope he will come back to LG

All that matters is that you are able to socialise with lighting fanatics and being a good buddy  plus I started off with a few posts but I selected ones that would be interesting + ones that would receive such comments saying "awesome, have not seen such thing" when it came to bulbs I have, not being posted here before (like the GE T shaped bulb I got from long ago and was rediscovered in 2015! + the opal coated green xmas light set & a MH lowbay with a very high colour temperature)

Now I'd like to make a point there, when I posted this pic of the MH lowbay in a Dreams bedstore that had a very high colour temperature as it had a strong hint of lilac/violet in the bluish whiteness of the MH lamp. First I got comments saying its one of these "coloured decorative purpose" MH lamps but me seeing this colour more than once with lamps being used in ordinary fixtures intended for ordinary HID lighting! And speaking about it I passed by a LU station that had MH globe fixtures using these "daylight/high colour temperature" that had a strong violet/lilac tinge. Now our new member, Angryhorse, has posted a lowbay MH fixture that had the EXACT colour temperature associated with a violet tinge and he said that it was a worn out but working MH bulb that needed changing

Maybe they were using plant grow lights, maybe I could make a photo of mine.
I always try to keep my posts relevant.

With all respect to everyone and the admins I keep my posts revalent  for the past 2 years, the only thing I posted which was slight off topic was a bakelite MK switch from the 70s  and on the first day of uploading I was selecting very carefully (and shaking with nervousness) to see which pics would be the ideal ones to post first! I got more confident when I got a warm welcome and known more by the LG community and my enjoyment escalated very quickly as it felt "Finally! some great company who I can chat and share lighting pics!"

Plant grow lamps in ordinary fixtures??! Geez that sounds insane but it could be easily done if the lighting maintenance people know little or nothing about lighting

Then they would not be lighting maintenance people, would they? 
I always want to see a big place like a store lit by high Kelvin lighting, maybe 12000K?

I'm talking about a maybe a panorama or photo of the inside of the store, not at the lights.

Oh right I see, WattMaster 

Now then as my collection begins to grow and grow, I'm now seeing that I have more pics of Incandescent lighting and lamps way more than the number of fluoresant lighting pics and tubes! Am slightly embarrassed about that because of my username but It doesn't matter because I have loads of cracking incandescents. The reason is that I don't have sufficient storage for fluoresant tubes because they take up more space than bulbs! So whatever tubes I'll buy will end up for usage!

Also in my fluoresant lighting album, there are fixtures I've posted and I know nothing about of make/model and I'm hoping someone who recognises the fixture will be able to tell me

I understand you 100% 

Time really does fly on and so does lighting! The aisles in my local B&Q are changing their stock/layout like mad (now they ditched GE for PHILIPS!!) and I'm yet to see a new streetlight that is not LED! Other stores in Reading where you used to get some decent OSRAM CFLS have gone LED and halogen (with some little left of CFL and fluoresants)
