If you count those out, I'd be on number 18 or something! Most of those people got their posts from Ndose anyway...

i don't think it separates newbies from veterans, i think it separates spammers(or non spammers but ppl who post a lot) with the ppl who don't post as much. wut separates newbies from veterans is the "Registered: Month Year" thing.

Like DeathsHand and myself, we are number one and two in post counts, we haven't exactly been here longer than everybody, but people know that we are among the biggest posters of all time, and neither of us spam.

w/o post counts, they couldn't tell DsH from a newbie who just got his first post. Also, not only that, post counts give members somthing to look forward to when posting. Dedicated members should be seperated from newbies, and post counts allow this.


Well saying that, i reckon Date Registered would be more or less a sign of how long you have been here.


I think i am 3rd highest poster or something like that anyhow.

Probably not anymore, because from what i have heard Shooter is a post cramming freak

hahaha... it is so, so true.

Well I got a fairly high post count but I don't post cram....in fact I've been here longer than some people and they have a higher post count than I do. I mean look a Kitana.....she's been around here for a long time and she doesn't have that many post counts...in fact if she wasn't a mod I would think that she was a fairly new member. So sometimes post counts can be deceiving.


And post counts don't separate vetrans from newbies ...not really....Look at BAB he came hear after me and has more post counts than me and he didn't post cram.....when he first came he replied to nearly every topic and made fairly long posts....and look at his post count now. :D So yes sometimes post counts show you who is new and who isn't but there is always some exception. :D

I think the bottom line on this subject is:

Who cares.

There are plenty of more important things that you could be worrying about other then your post count.

I'm slower than you. I've been here since Nintendodolphin.net,
and look at my post count.

I talk to Zen all the time on AIM. He just "hates" it here and will never return. (:D)

Also I have seen Sigma in studio64.yi.org #studio64. I haven't mentioned anything bout GT to him because he doesn't kno I goat GT... :roll:

I don't really give a s**t about my post count.. I've told Neo a bunch of times he can tell me if I'm cramming -- nothing yet.

GameKinG 04-14-2002 02:11 PM

Ok, lets get this straight. You dont have to worry about your or other post count. Sometimes it helps pick out the spammers or post crammers by looking the post count the register date and then there history of post. Other times it gives others a chance to get more post by posting in a topic about post counts.
