500 posts!!! (1 Viewer)

[Tony-B]

Not that anyone cares, but this is my 500th post on HTF!! I just wanted to do something special for this occasion. I want to thank Ron, Parker, and all of the admins on the forum for running my favorite Internet time-waster. I also want to thank all the members who have read my posts and have had to put up with me. I enjoy every minute I spend on this site. Here's to another 500 and many, many more!

Only 500? Pfft!

 

[Rob Lutter]

500? That impresses me not

< Looks at post count and realizes he has almost 3000 posts >

Pretty good run though... you are probably in the upper 3% of posters. Don't listen to SteveGon, 5200 of his posts are from his silly little tournaments in the HTF Polls section

 

[Tony-B]

Hahah. But still, this is after 9 months!! And I diddn't post very much for like a few months or so last year!!

 

[Vlad D]

Speaking of post counts, I no longer see them displayed with the posters name like they use to be. Is there a setting in my profile or options that need to be changed?

 

[Graeme Clark]

No, they got rid of them cause they caused too much trouble.

 

[NickSo]

Wow, havent seen milestone posts for awhile!! mustve been coz they removed the post count... Well stil, congrats

 

[Will Pomeroy]

So if they removed the post count, how do you really know how many post you have?

 

[Jack Briggs]

Check your profile, Will.

Tony: We expect more posts, please. Congrats. JB

I only have 387 posts, but it's quality that counts.

 

[Lew Crippen]

Congrats, and I agree with Rob—pay no attention to Steve, his posts are all in Polls (as are Rob’s).

And commenting on polls, I’d say about 95% of my posts only contains the word abstain

 

[Jack Briggs]

Don't be silly, Lew. Your posts are substantive and well-reasoned.

I like post counts, especially from an admin POV. The concern last year was that some people were putting too much emphasis on them, so we voted to remove the post-count numbers from underneath the user names in posts. Like DVD Talk's, our post counts are still active but viewable from the member-profile page.

but it's quality that counts

Same here, Nathan!!

Thanks Jack!
