Does your post count matter to you?

[Confused]

I couldn't really care what the number says, although in a way, it's nice to know just how much you have contributed to the forum.

When I add up all the posts on all the forums I'm a member of, it's quite scary to see just how many posts I've written and submitted - the number of posts that I've written and NOT submitted is rather high too - normally due to writing a sarcastic or stern response to something, then re-reading it before submitting it, and realising that actually it's just not worth the hassle!

I think in total, since ~2000 on various forums, I must have posted around 40,000 posts - ~5,000 per year...

Weren't you banned though?

I wondered if someone would pick me up on that technicality

Most people with mega high post counts are the ones with Grammar Nazi obsessive compulsive disorder that don't actually post anything other than a public display of their disorder.

Surprisingly none of them have started and the thread is 3 pages in

or was it to up my post count



who knows?...

 

[Hlebio]

I read plenty of threads where I feel I could reply and it be worthwhile, but yet don't bother. I guess that tells me that I don't give a damn about it.

 

[fozter]

Not at all.
I read the forum for a year without even registering

 

[Westyfield2]

I'm another of the people that read far more than I reply to...

It's all about join date, not post count.

It's all about join date, not post count.

Says the people who joined in 2002

I lurked before the nuke, but didn't register till 04. iFail.

 

[CurlyWhirly]

Nope I tend to read more than I post.

Same here.

 

[CurlyWhirly]

If we all read a lot more than we post, is OC slowly coming to its end?

I doubt this will happen as there will always be people who prefer to post than read

post count means nothing, hence why i donate it when i can.

I didn't even know that you can donate them

 

[Mulder]

Nope, not all. My read to post ratio is probably about 20:1.

 

[Nitefly]

I shall not lie, I really wanted to reach the big 5,000. I didn't post excessively or spam to get there mind.

3 unless you're on noob settings

I like the noob settings

 

[stigggeh]

Nope, not all. My read to post ratio is probably about 20:1.

Same...

All my posts are quality, thats what matters

 

[Vita]

Not to me really. I only post on threads I want to. I enjoy reading the forums.

 

[Hxc]

Nope, not all. My read to post ratio is probably about 20:1.

I'd say mine's in the region of 1:20.

 

[ryder]

No, it just feels good to make a contributing post.
