Well, this one isn't. I've been keeping an eye on the member lists and updating postcounts about weekly (that's automatic, for those who picture me copying down numbers for hours), and now that a month and a half is past, I thought it'd be time for a recount. Since last count in March 4, we have had an increase of 151 members, which works out to 3.3 accounts per day. Of these 151 accounts, only 87 ever posted. Apart from these 87, 273 members already registered have posted again at least once, so in the last month, we have had a total of 360 posting members. The boards have received 7576 posts, which works out to an average of 186 posts per day (that's all boards, not just General), 21 posts per active member, and 0.47 posts per pember per day. The top ten spam--- ahem, posters are: 1. Thuryl: +480 2. Dolphin: +390 3. Kelandon: +372 4. My humble self: +230 5. VCH: +203 6. TM: +190 7. BSC: +178 8. Holy Toenail: +172 9. Alorael: +171 10. The Creator: +164 Alo appears to be slipping... :P -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

I knew I wasn't the fastest poster anymore, but I didn't realize I'd slipped that far! And Thuryl is number one? Wow! —Alorael, who would like to congratulate Thuryl on posting that much without making it noticeable through spam. May your dazzling intellect continue to stun puny mortals!

This is the second time I've done it, and of course the first time I've been able to post this result (since it requires two tables to calculate the difference). But I'll probably do it again next month... -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

Hoo-hah! I've been around this board for about a year this month. At 500-something posts, though, it makes me a bit of a minor player in the scheme of things. :( Still though, you'd have to admit I'm consistent. :) Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

Worry not Dolphin, your posts are cool (in fact, if you want to not be embarassed, check out the second question for this poll.) I think that Geneforge 3 may have given a good excuse to post a lot. A complete new board! Man. I've been posting that much! Ouch. No wonder the CfGTiIF gave irony central a visit the other day. Hmmm. Guess the bribe wasn't enough. Anyway.

:o This is for embarrassment. I don't quite know why, however. I used to post a lot, but not nearly so much anymore. Where am I on the list?

When I was a n00b, I was probably pretty high up that list, but it seems I am no longer in the top 10. I'd like to know where though. :D People hated me back then though, and they may still now, but I don't seem to be getting near as much flame comments. -------------------- -ben4808 For those who love to spam: CSM Forums RIFQ Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |
