The Daily Chit-Chat [2008]

[Ho-Oh]

Hello people. I have tried to find something to say that is related to the topic, and I failed. So I decided to carry out my plans for a nostalgic 1000th post...

Okay, not even a nostalgic 1000th post, because I can not find my first post on archive.org or elsewhere. Meh, here we are, 1000 posts people...I'm so slow.

1000 posts isn't really that... important. A person that was bored could get 1000 posts in less than a week... so it isn't such a big thing. XD;

 

[Always and Never]

1000 posts isn't really that... important. A person that was bored could get 1000 posts in less than a week... so it isn't such a big thing. XD;

Still, you get more respect after you have four digits in your post count. It means your a veteran of the community, and not someone who signed up yesterday.

 

[Saryka]

I forget what I did for my 1000th post. :/ I was either here in the DCC or in NU/W. Nothing special. I mean, it feels like an accomplishment for a little while, but then... it's really no biggie. XD;

 

[Gerri Shin]

My goal is to make it to my 1000th post before I make it to my PCversary in July.
I think I'll be able to make it

 

[Twinx]

I think my 1,000 post was in some club.. I didn't make much of a big deal out of it though.. It's just a number...

 

[Jaimes]

If I wanted to, I could get 1000 posts in a week... There are so many polls/ threads which don't require any intelligent comments..


E.g I could say "In my opinion it's bad." for:

Euros, how do you feel about immigration?
Capital Punishment?
Drug use- ur opinion?
Road Accidents
Pokemon Orchestral Arrangement

And that's just on the first page of this board. 5 posts for me in less than a minute and it's not spamming. gg.

 

[Saryka]

I just realized that most likely more than half of my posts are from this thread alone. XD;

You have 861 posts in the DCC, Natalie. XD; That's ridiculously crazy.

My first 1000 posts are from forever ago. D: I never posted anywhere except Pixel Art.

 

[Twinx]

Most of my posts are in the PCC.. back in the old days. It was me, fable and Oni Raichu.. We ruled that thread xD

 

[Chibi-chan]

My postcount is pretty much built on DCC. Besides that...the rest would be in OVP or Roleplay.
Like, without DCC I'd only have about 1k XD
And....I just broke my 8,300 u_u;

 

[Ryoutarou]

Not by a long shot. When I was still in my "posting prime", I could pull off at least 300 posts a day, and a friend of mine actually managed 1,000 in a single day. It's kinda pointless though, since it's just a number really.

...

So says the man with the largest post count on this board.

 

[Saryka]

You went and and found how many, Klippy? o_o

I was just estimating. XD;

 

[Chibi-chan]

I don't know why postcount matters really, I've never gotten it D:
I have noticed other people being ignored just because they have a low postcount...that's not right.
I wouldn't mind it being disabled really ~_~

That would be awesome. A bunch of boards I go to have them disabled and the whole community is better off. Aside from the complaining at the start of it all. Plus, you could still see your post count in the profile page, so it technically wasn't gone, just pushed to the very back.

 

[Twinx]

Chibi, it just shows how active someone is.
I have to admit that I'm always looking at people's postcounts to see how active they are...

 

[Klippy]

Yes. XD; It's not that hard. Just click the total posts next to the thread title and it lists who's posted how much.

Post counts can get in the way of legitimate posts though. If someone has a really low count, then they're sometimes ignored. ;;

 

[Saryka]

I'd rather that, actually. A lot of people are judged on post count and it's just not right, 'cause it's almost like saying you can't take them seriously because their post count isn't in the three or four digits. Just because someone is new (or inactive) doesn't mean they can't be taken seriously. :/

 

[Ryoutarou]

Chibi, it just shows how active someone is.

Why would you even care though? The quality of the post is what matters, or should be in the case of PC. Just because they're active doesn't necessarily mean they're contributing in a positive manner to the place.

You can be active and still have a post count that's not as high as everyone else's. :/ If you're just shooting out posts that don't really mean anything, it's more spammy than anything else.

Kudos to that. ._. I mean, just look at me for instance.. [/selfabsorbed]

Then again, an active member is one that hasn't been banned, so he/she isn't useless.
