8ObiWan88 (also known as Obi) is a user who joined the LEGO Message Boards on October 27, 2008. He had the rank Legend, 29,958 posts, and 8 studs. Obi was a relatively recent poster, as he started to post in November 2011. He was somewhat a slow poster at first, and took two months to reach Artisan. After this, he sped up extremely, and reached Maniac in another two months, exactly 30 days after he had reached Old Timer. ObiWan roleplayed in a lot of forums, but also posted in the Community Chat Forum and its subforum, the Message Boards Subforum. He posted at an extremely fast rate, and had made 6,000 posts in February 2012 alone, before going inactive early 2012. He returned to normal posting in September 2012.
He was also founder of the topic "The Badges Office."
Accusation[]
Since Obi was so fast, many users accused him of being a duplicate account of Eragon3443, but this accusation has been discredited.
Goals[]
ObiWan posted a goal in MB Goals, which was to make all of his posts at least two sentences long. This is because he became worried that he was spamming too much.
Since then, the quality of his posts increased, and he no longer posted one word comments. This may have meant he had to slow down too much to reach his other goal.
Obi wanted to reach Legend by Friday, May 11, which would be exactly 6 months since he became active, thus becoming the fastest ever user to get from Apprentice to Legend. On Wednesday, May 9, Obi achieved this goal, and did succeed in becoming the fastest user to reach Legend, in just a few days less than six months.
