It’s a name… I am a frequent user of the forum so I know when someone “accidentally” calls it “derlin” I know better. If one went to get something machined and asked for it to be made of “derlin” it may follow with disappointment.

Just so you know this post drove my auto correct insane.

It might not track on the App, which is what I use. Only been on the forum on site once or twice.

And I know I have more than 1 day login time.

But Derlin is what my heart tells me…

Also if we’re playing the “I’ve got more posts game” go by pages of posts 'cause the counter does some funny things.

I’m not really sure why it matters if someone calls it derlin. Even if you were to go to a machine shop and ask them to spin something using “derlin” I’m pretty sure they would know what you meant.

And why does post count matter?
