Unflappable Drayk Toby-Linn Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 It took me quite a while, but finally I made it to 1000 posts, woot! I wonder when the next milestone will be? It will probably take me another 2 years to reach 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Congrats on your first 4-digit milestone, and thanks for the excuse to increase my own post count. In the meantime, here's some cold hard cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easygoing Eyebeast Dantius Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I;m less impressed by the fact that she reached 1000, than the fact that she got modship before she hit it- she seems to be just about the only mod with less than 2500 posts.

This is mainly because mods tend to stick around and post actively. Interestingly, most of the current mods became mods at well under 2500 posts (and usually under 1500). This applies to *i, Alorael, Kelandon, Khoth, myself, Randomizer, Toby-Linn, Niemand, and Celtic Minstrel. Ephesos and SoT were around 3000, IIRC. The major exceptions are just Aran and Dikiyoba.

That's why I made this topic, lol....I don't seem to post as much as other people that's why I'm impressed I made it to 1000. Actually what really helped my post count was playing the first two Darkside Loyalist games and I guess becoming a mod helped too. Or else it would have taken me longer to reach 1000 posts.

I don't see why viewing either of these things is necessary. Registration date gives an idea of how long the person's been around, but any other numbers just give people reasons to make assumptions. For example, one might assume that someone who took so long to reach 1000 posts is a fairly obscure member, an assumption that Toby-Linn proves false. Congrats!

Anything past that just kind of blends in to the background. And that post reads like something written while on skribbane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Dantius Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm worse- I've been lurking since G5 came out for mac, trying to grab spoilers. If I'd signed up then, I'd probably be challenging Alorael's post count by now. Wait, let me work this out.. I have 422 posts, counting this one, and registered August 22. This means that I had a posting velocity of about 6 posts per day on average. Presuming I kept this up from my fake registration, which I put at Feb 18, what a Google search put as the release date for G5 on mac (this seems about right), I would have slightly over 1.5k posts by now. That's impressive. <img src="http://stuff.ermarian.net/alexdrawings/posting.GIF"> Again, I know, but I love this cartoon. It's my new background.

That's impressive. The thing is, though, as time goes on, the rate of posting tends to steadily decline. Especially in those periods of inactivity between game releases. There was a time at which Iffy had a higher posting rate than Alorael - however, Iffy's all but gone now, and Alorael just keeps posting drivel, like Alorael does.

Well-Actually War Trall The Ratt Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Heh, I greatly declined in posting after my vacation this summer. I became almost non-existent. My posting frequency has picked up now. I think it's because of school, which probably isn't a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
