2.04 posts per day (PPD).

Everyone who has more spends too much time here. Everyone who has less needs to contribute more.

11.14 and I’m going to use this excuse.

Seriously, eleven posts a day for fifteen years? You’d think I’d have run out of words at some point.

And half of those are probably in various Mafia game threads.

I am down to 6.85 Posts Per Day but considering I was over 20 per day at one point, the post per day since 2010 is probably around 3.

Surprised none of the 3 top tiers have been filled in-I checked some usual suspects before I made the poll and there were a few up there…

2.53 here, but I’m dropping. It’s been hard for me to get online during the week recently, so I don’t get into as many threads as I once did.

0.12, but making this post will throw that number out of whack.

I averaged .27. I guessed higher, but I stopped posting for several years. Been here a while.

In nine years, I have made under 550 posts. Like so many others I joined for the Death Pool. I am actually surprised it’s as high as 0.16 per day. Love it here, but am a super lurker. Whenever I do post in a thread, I either forget I did and don’t go back, which I feel is a bit of a violation of the social contract of the board. I don’t mean to drive by, it’s just the way it goes. So I tend to err on the side of not posting.
