Post counts for wwf posters

[Guest Captian Linger]

This board just opened, how do people already have their post counts in 200+? Get lives, people.

 

BTW, this is Pactrick Bateman from the old forum. I'm converting to a new name. I've gone from upscale, 80's era Serial Killer from that Super Hero on "Adult Swim" that just "lingers" around long after he's contributing anything.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

Well...

 

I'm averaging a little under 30 posts a day (according to my profile)

 

Partaking in threads like Word Association and Live Raw threads will pad some numbers.

[Guest Captian Linger]

I'd probably have more posts too if I didn't have to share a phone line. I usually can't log on until after midnight...Not that I'm missing much;).

 

Internet time to me, lately, seems to equate to 'time listening to my new stereo system'.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

The main problem for the last week has been the fact that more than half of the smarks have stayed at the old forum...and the rest are over here.

 

That doesn't make for quite as many conversations...but does allow for the coversations that you are having, to be more in depth.

[Guest The Vanilla Midget]

i dunno how they got over 250 either

i've been here for about a week, and just gotten over 100 posts.  a lot of my posts have come from the word association thread, and it hasnt really been hard to get the rest, as i've just spent an hour or so in the evening here while i chat on msn.

[Guest The Vanilla Midget]

also, is it just me or does the actual quality of discussion here seem to be better than at the old board also?

[Guest Kagato Otaku]

Relish it until the mass ezboard exodus on 2/20.

[Guest The Vanilla Midget]

yup, 2 weeks and counting...

[Guest Kagato Otaku]

Dammit Bates, why'd you have to be Captain Linger? He's so darn likable, and you're so darn... not as likeable.

 

Oh well. Que sera sera and all that crap.

[Guest CanadianChris]

Well, we can at least be happy aboutthe fact that half the posters currently on the ezboard WWF forum will be banned on sight when they show up here.

[Guest Midnight Express83]

I posted atleast 50 times, but less than half of them seem to count, very odd. I makes no sense. Must be a bug because I seen post by me where hardly any are counted. Like it matters or anything.

 

I say Jay should have his finger on the banning trigger and ban anyone who trolls at the other board. We could make a list and start banning away.

[Guest Big Poppa Popick]

hell,

 

i just post random stuff while im at work wasting away 8 hours on spreadsheet crud, and im not even at 100 yet,

 

though i imagine ill be there today or tomorrow, woohoo! promotion

 

and the conversations seem ALOT better, no wacky threads

(well, kaoz, but...ill take it, better than xkilla)

[Guest Tony149]

bsp21 is right, most of the smark forum members are still in the old forum. This time the people with high counts aren't posting crap like the old forum. If you look at most of their post, you would see quality posts.

[Guest Kahran Ramsus]

It really has been better here, hasn't it?

[Guest Army Eye]

also, is it just me or does the actual quality of discussion here seem to be better than at the old board also?

yes I agree.  and the ezboard just keeps degenerating

 

poor thing needs to be shot. it deserves better in its final days

[Guest Midnight Express83]

More things change, the more things stay the same.

 

New board, member with highest post count: Tony149.

 

But keep posting daily and your count is in the triple digits without effort. They had a 2 week start and will easily be at the highest count.

[Guest Tony149]

It really has been better here, hasn't it?

 

It's been really better here. There's a lot of good discussion going on. And there have been no trolls. Though that will probably change when more people start coming over from the old forum.

[Guest Kahran Ramsus]

Well, there is Kaoz.  I can't remember whether he got banned or not.

[Guest Big Poppa Popick]

if he did, its been a silent ban

 

no i am not looking forward to the old board people coming to the new

 

but i am gonna see how much its degenerated over there

[Guest Choken One]

Nothing more shocking then my lack of Posting, Only 66 at the present moment. I remember I came in and shot to 500 in a month at the old board. Here, I just don't care anymore.

[Guest Daredevil21]

I think I'm in the same boat as Choken One here. I really posted too much at times on the old board and here I just want things to be different. I want to post only if it will help someone out with a question or contribute to the topic. The reason some people have such high post counts already, is because a lot of their posts bear little or no actual substance. They have a line or two that says something useless like, "Yeah that was cool". Stuff like that adds nothing and just boosts your count.

     I guess when it comes down too it, I'd like to be known as a poster who adds something to the conversation and not just, "that dude with the insanely high post count," which IMO is what a lot of you people here are turning into already. I really don't care how long I'm a trainee.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

Let me just say this:  I wasn't on the old board for long, I got to there just before Vengeance.  And it was already shitty.  It keeps getting worse.  

 

But I have thouroughly enjoyed my first week on this board.  The conversations are more intelligent, and don't get interrupted by stupid comments.  (with the exception of my HHH conspiracies)

 

SHOOT ALL TROLLS ON SIGHT!

 

If this board can be maintained properly....this is SOOOO much better than the old board.

[Guest Tony149]

So far there hasn't been many post with the useless "Yeah that's cool." line and crappy posts. Unless people with "high" post counts start causing trouble or posting crappy threads like "Should I go to sleep?" then there isn't a problem. Considering a lot of the posters still at the old Smark forum aren't here yet...the board has been fun and peaceful.

[Guest Austin3164life]

I hear people sometimes post about 30-50 times a day on this board.  Do some of the people here have so much time on their hands??

[Guest Midnight Express83]

People have had short, and people had long. A quality post isn't if its long or not. A quality post is one that adds to the topic. There is only one thread on this WHOLE foumn that has any post whoring what so ever. And its not bullshit. Its saying whatever is the first thing that comes to you mind.

 

The post count of this board shows the rate people post. Except mine, I used to have more time to post and thats how I was at 1600+ post on the smarks board yet here I am at only 34? Maybe 33 or 35. Doesn't matter since nobody is making titles, counts, sigs a big deal.

[Guest Captian Linger]

Dammit Bates, why'd you have to be Captain Linger? He's so darn likable, and you're so darn... not as likeable.

 

Oh well. Que sera sera and all that crap.

No one else seems to be championing Captian Linger's name and I just love that 2min 'toon that (sometimes) airs during Adult Swim.

 

I was horrified when it didn't come on last Sunday. I'm Trying to get every ep on tape.

 

The whole concept is so stupid that it's genius in spite of itself. It's like the "TV Funhouse" Superman parody about a Super Hero that just wants to get laid, only I never thought that was all that funny.

 

Everyone wants to get laid, that's so obvious. It's less funny being bludgeoned over the head with low brow humor in such a simple manner. Low brow humor seems to work best when it's as offensive as humanly possible, TV Funhouse's skit didn't do it for me.

 

On the other side of the spectrum, there's nothing at all offensive about Captian Linger. He's just an idiot. I don't know what it is but I can really relate to that;).

[Guest FakeRazor]

I'd have more posts, but I had no idea this forum was still open...

 

Also, can you use HTML in your sig?

[Guest Midnight Express83]

nope, sorry you have to use the ezc...ikoncodes

[Guest Maurizio C... Version 2]

well, with th new avatars and the intelligent discussions, the board is a much better place. of course, you know in a fw days it will transform into Troll-Town and then the fun will begin. People wanting the porno and flaming folder will just create a fuss on the wwf or general chat ones and get thir way.

Absolutely.  The discussions are great here and Ikonboard kicks ezboard's ass.  

 

I just hope the tolerance for trolls will be low, when the time comes.
