I WILL catch up to you... and then surpass you. I have a case of Bawls to fuel me and the extreme durability that only a teenager can have. Beware. At the end, it will be I who reigns supreme.
And Beware, Hatrack. You thought you were done with the teenagers. But they are BACK to HAUNT you!!!
Let the War of Posts BEGIN!!!!

Posted by Tinros (Member # 8328) on :
CompUSA. It's the only place I can find it.

So, they do have it at CompUSA? I'll need to make a trip to one of their locations. Where, in the store, do they carry it?

Posted by ElJay (Member # 6358) on :
Now the problem, Tinros, is that you have to come up with something interesting to say. Or, rather, several thousand interesting things to say. Tante averages about 25 posts a day, not taking into account that she dosen't post on Shabbos. If she stops posting entirely, which is unlikely, and you start posting at 25/day, it would take you 197 days to catch up with her. That's 6.5 months. If she keeps posting at her current rate, and you start posting at 50/day, you'd break even with her in 6.5 months.
Forgive me if I don't hold my breath.

I don't generally consider post count worth mentioning -- unless someone else brings it up. Then it's fair game.
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
Well, post count is generally considered basis for one's "noobiness," so to speak. And it is not very nice. And 'tis also not very nice to generalize and assume that someone, like myself, is a "noob," as it were, for trying to protect himself from a rude and unnecessary insult, the calling of the "noob."
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
1) Post count and newbieness are sometimes related, but not always. We have oldbies with low counts, and newbies with high counts.
2) Calling someone a newbie is hardly a reflection on anything but their newness -- hardly an insult of any type.
3) When a thread's very basis is postcount, I consider all comments about postcount to be quite on topic.

The problem you're running into, Steve, is that "acting like a newbie" and "acting like a teenager" sometimes look a lot alike. There's nothing wrong with acting like a teenager. Particularly when you are one. But in this case, it makes you fair game for anyone who's been here longer than you. As rivka undoubtedly has.

Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
Tom, as much as I agree with you...I much rather have this than most the topics we've had during election season till now. I agree that post count means almost nothing. Almost. When it is someone like Moose, or rivka, or you (and I'm sure there are more but to make the point) it is a bit different. However, that is only because it correlates with your time on the message board. That and because out of the three I mentioned I have met two of.
Wow, this is probably the only time I have ever completely agreed with you Tom. I like that. I usually don't respond against your political beliefs because I have a strict belief to let people believe what they want. No matter how much it rankles me.
So*, in conclusion...post all you want. it won't really do anything for you. You first have to have something worth reading if you are going to post that much in a day. Hope you are up to date on the news, because it's going to take a little research to be able to hold your own on most of the topics on this board these days.
Posted by Altáriël of Dorthonion (Member # 6473) on :
I agree with you Stan, but hey then again, who started the Currently Listening thread? I'm really proud it has stayed alive so long. Long live the CLT! :grin:
Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :
quote:I usually don't respond against your political beliefs because I have a strict belief to let people believe what they want. No matter how much it rankles me.
If that's all that's stopping you from posting in non-fluff threads, go ahead. Seriously, I doubt that your posts are going to prevent me (or anyone else here) from believing what I want to believe, and the way you worded your concern didn't mention anything about just elucidating what you believe. So do so, unless your actual code is something like "don't argue with people." A lot of the acrimony occasionally perceived there is just that: perceived. With very few exceptions (and they're usually pretty obvious exceptions, and tend to stick out like sore thumbs), participants in even the most heated political debates here don't actually dislike each other.
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
quote:Originally posted by Stan the man: post all you want. it won't really do anything for you.
You see, Stan, it really does do something for me. I'm going to bring down the fun for a moment. I don't post too much because I have this weird competitive urge to outpost the other Hatrackers. I mean, I keep looking at my post count with a bit of shock, shaking my head at myself and wondering what is going on here.
My real life is one of daily sacrifice. I sacrifice my needs and my desires in order to serve other people's needs. It is an around-the-clock commitment that involves full-time work as a nurse in the day, and taking care of my family, including a severely disabled husband, when I'm not at work. Fun, carefree "me time" is rare indeed for me.
In addition, I have my own health problems -- lupus -- that makes me feel lousy almost all the time. Imagine having pain in your joints all the time, fatigue all the time, fevers, sores in your mouth, and an inability to enjoy any sunlight -- even a window with the curtains parted. Crummy, eh?
So, I could piss and moan and kvetch and make myself and everyone around me miserable. I could abandon my current situation and seek something a little more fun. I could insist that I need to spend my days in bed, having other people take care of me. But I've gone a different route. I do what I need to do cheerfully, with a good attitude, and I derive satisfaction from helping other people. For me, some time out with just friends, going out to a movie, or even just some time alone is a rare and treasured thing, that requires a remarkable amount of planning to pull off.
I love being on Hatrack. I love getting to know people just for fun -- not because they need something from me. I love being able to cut loose and have my own fun, and not worry that I'm not giving enough. When I log on, I am fully engaged, immersed in the experience. I drink it in great gulps, as if I've just hiked across a desert with a dry a canteen and have stumbled upon a fertile oasis.
I post a lot. I am addicted. But you know, it fills a void, it is safe, it does not take me from my real responsibilities, and, gosh darn it, it just feels so good.
Posting on Hatrack really doesn't do anything for me? Au contraire, it replenishes me.
And I am grateful to all of Hatrack, and especially our host, for giving me that.

Posted by ElJay (Member # 6358) on :
Tante, I don't think that line in Stan's post was directed at you. I think it was directed at the people who are planning on posting more purely for the sake of trying to catch you. You post when you have something to say. That happens to be a lot. That's entirely different from posting just to inflate your post count.
It's like if I went and made 1000 posts in the Last Post thread this morning because you're less than 100 posts behind me now. Sure, I would have upped my postcount. But it wouldn't have really done anything for me. And who would read those posts? I'd be shouting to the air.
Hatrack does a lot of things for a lot of people. I'm pretty sure Stan wasn't trying to say otherwise.

ElJay be right. It's really against post whoring for no cause, rhyme, or reason.
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
Who cares....about post count, that is.
While it can be fun to poke fun at Tante and some others about their high post counts I don't know anyone I respect here who would consider that to be an accurate measure of how much someone has contributed to the community. At least not in and of itself.
I didn't post a lot the first three years I was here because I didn't have a computer. The times I did post were posting from public computers, or at my parents house in RI. My post count was slim, to say the least...but I still loved coming here, although I was at times taken for a noob because of my post count. No one was ever rude to me (once they finally realized I wasn't otaku, anyway) even if they mistakenly thought I was new, and once they looked at my registration date they usually realized their mistake.
I have not even make a Landmark, although I have a decent count now. I feel that in a way my everyday posts are as much of a landmark of who I am and what I believe as any specific "Landmark" thread could be, at least in some ways. I love Landmark threads, don't get me wrong, but I saved a place for one at 5000....then realized that I didn't really want to write one yet.
Being a noob doesn't mean your opinions don't matter, or that your are stupid or ignorant, it just means that we don't really know you well yet. It is also a matter of posting style sometimes, because more than a few people here stopped being noobs within months of joining. Some never really felt like noobs at all, to be honest.
And my "list" of who is and isn't a noob (not that I really have one, or really care one way or another) would differ from other peoples list, I am sure.
I think that if you post you should be adding something to the conversation. Post whores don't.

Seeing that you have 1324 posts and Tante has 9630. I hate to say it dude, but you lost.

Wow. I was just reading through this without noticing it was from 2006, until I came to my own post and became very, very confused.

The date tricked me because I was scanning backwards to find where the new posts started, and the old posts end on January 2, 2006, which I totally missed until I got to the top of this page.

Sorry I was bored and thought about back in the archives. I was reading this and realized we now have a clear winner.
I actually remembered this thread when it first showed up once I reread.
Hatrack archive diving is fun! (Someone should make a game out of that)

Someone did.
I'm sure the thread is still around somewhere.

So, did I win?
If so, what did I win?

I should hope you won that matching gauntlet you were pining after.
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
9248 posts, and our undying attention....
...Oh LOOK! A Butterfly!!!

Haha. Here, Tante, have the other gauntlet. *gives*
I resign. I just don't check this site that much anymore... well, I don't post much anymore, because I don't really have too much to say. That, and the three months I was unable to check the site because of that weird mixup with my password... *sigh*
You win.

Well Tinros if Tante has only been here for 29 months. Then she makes about 11.09 posts a day (much less than she used to)
If you post 50 times a day for the next 166 days you'll be caught up to where she is now. Another 40 days after that and you would have beaten her.
(Or if your goals are really high- try and beat kq)
