Thrill_Biscuit Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Well, ironically I'll use my 1200th post to say that I think the whole post ranking thing is fun, and the ranks chosen by the site creators are appropriate, ingenious and hilarious! Many of the high-number posters have always added real value to the threads (as opposed to few, 'reflective' posters, who fill up forums with echoes like "Yeah, I can't wait!", or "Me, too.", without really contributing to the flow of a topic). (Not sayin' I haven't been guilty of that myself sometimes ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I just say my name at the top of the list for posters today, but didn't think that was possible since this is my 4th post of the day. I guess it keeps a running total over the last 24hr time period. Hum, interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeLorean Rider Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Anyone who thinks that the amount of posts you have matters (and there are clearly several in this thread), needs to watch this now: Remember, this is not Congress. "filibuster-ing" posts here to be a "top poster" is not going to gain you any respect, and will likely just **** people off. Being new is not a bad thing. If you want to earn people's respect; first of all, know what you're talking about before posting. (remember, It is better to be quiet and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubts.) Do research if necessary. And for goodness sake, make sure you use punctuation, grammar, and spelling. Nothing makes you look more ignorant than a post full of misspelled words, with improper grammar, and lack of punctuation. One or two errors isn't bad, but a post like this: today i am the top 20 poster who will it be tomorow who knows just put in a little imput each day if you are the top 20 poster off the day so untill tomory im woopin ya'lls butt's one post at a time see if you can catch me or beat me*this message was approved by the Big Red Dice affiliation of one, further more he is responsable for his comments and his comments alone capeesh* understandable mine do about every 15-16 post just tryin to get out of noob stage so others will except me into the group and i am here to stay hopefully unless a moderator pulls the plug i know the words and meanings its just the spellin i usually get ejected first in a spellin bee i mean who here doesnt spell dawg<D.A.W.G.>by the way im local now no longer a noob can i get a woop woop Really? It doesn’t matter to me if you're a top poster, because all I see is someone that doesn't care enough to attempt proper communication. Sorry but until you change that, you'll never leave the "noob" stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Mouse Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 It just gives me a visual of someone taking a deep breath and trying to get all of the words said before their oxygen runs out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 You can believe this or not...it really doesn't matter. I pay exactly zero attention to how many posts I have here (or on the perhaps a dozen other places I post). I try to contribute, and do so without regard to statistics. It is what it is.

CoastersRZ Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Well then, I challenge you to find a post of Interpreter`s where his post adds no content or additional information to the topic at hand. You likely won`t find any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigacoaster2k Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I joined a little over 8 months ago and have over 1k posts, but that is because I am a very enthusiastic and opinionated person with a lot to say. I couldn't care less about post count.. I post so much that I don't even realize when I make it to the next level on here. It irritates me how some people think this is a posting race, so they litter the forums with 946 billion irrelevant one word posts, and make it worse by announcing in bold italic 96 point font that "Z0MGZ they has reached they're 100,000th post." Honestly, who cares? I've seen people with less than 10 posts make a heck of a lot more sense than a lot of what I read on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 And even if you were talking about me, my dear, it's that you couldn't care less about post count, if you could care less then you DO care some... Terpy, who just had to (and who has as one mission in life trying to teach others how to properly use that troublesome phrase!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaterboy22101 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) Well then, I challenge you to find a post of Interpreter`s where his post adds no content or additional information to the topic at hand. You likely won`t find any. I wasn't saying that. What I ment was that, in my opinion, with the ammount of his/her's post count and the quality their posts leads me to believe "Terpy" is like a "Dear Abby" collum. Now thats just my opinion. They might just be just one person, but im not exactly sure. Edited April 10, 2009 by skaterboy22101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Oh, my. I was first accused of that about age 12. Kind of scary, actually. Besides, I'd like to think I am closer to her twin sister, Ann Landers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terpy, who just had to (and who has as one mission in life trying to teach others how to properly use that troublesome phrase!) I wasn't talking about you and you know it. *points* Terpy is being mean to me! *cries and runs away* I do appreciate the grammar correction though. I'll correct my post as needed.

The Interpreter Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Terpy would never be mean to you. He must be nice to you...as you adore Millennium Force so he doesn't have to! Just as Terpy adores Great Adventure, so you don't have to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianBeatle Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I am hoping that, by the end of the summer, I will know whether I adore Great Adventure as well. Can't wait to ride El Toro!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotag Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Something tells me that that bigreddice fellow who started this was refering to how many you post today... ...not how much your total is over your lifespan of being hear.

Racerrider Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 well back on topic...sorta anyway.... PKIruler102 DOMINATED the boards today, so far with 24 posts, almost ten over terpy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeLorean Rider Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Well in case you aren't sure, this thread is simply a place for people to post nonsense to increase their post count.

rotag Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 I still think that the meaning to this is lost to some cause its per day not since joining. Its kinda pointless if people are taking the meaning the wrong way. If this is the case then the new people wouldn't stand a chance of ranking if it is not based on overall posts instead of per day.

markhudson17 Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 I think the topic is kind of a waste. Who cares who the top poster of the day is. Is it really that important? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
