Seems to me he regularly chimes in every few months. But I could be wrong.
You are.  Twice in the past half year.
And just how does that make my statement "he regularly chimes in every few
months" wrong?
Because twice in the past half year isn't the same as regularly chiming in
every few months.

LOL please explain the difference to me?

"Regularly chiming in every few months" over a period of 6 months means
chiming in twice, spaced "regularly" over the time, i.e at 3 months and
6 months.

Chiming in twice in the last 6 months could mean chiming in on Day One
and Day Two, and not for the rest of the 118 days.

See the difference?  It's there.
