Is SmileyDeath gonna make it?

First day at this part of the cyber-coalface, actively picking away – and you get a Pit thread all about you! That’s part of what I call interestin’, mate.

Certainly livened things up a bit. I’ll just relax back an’ watch th’ show, me bein’ a foreigner and all. :slight_smile:

Getting a pit thread is cool(especially when I’m not being flamed :slight_smile: ).
I’ve lurked around here for awhile.

I’d gathered that about th’ lurking from your deftness with the smilies an’ all, SmileyDeath. That’s why I added the “actively picking”, part. :slight_smile:

Your debut is going swimmingly, mate. That’s good to see. This NewZild Wolf wishes ya all the best for your career as one of us Teeming Millions. :slight_smile:

And since he’s 14, that’s maybe not a line of discussion you want to take too far :eek: :confused: :frowning: :cool:

OMFG, he has 73 posts total, profile says posts per day = 73. This could get ugly fast…

Guys here’s a example if what I can do:
Right here

Why?

Yeah, why?

All naysayers take a glance at the link I posted…

Hey, I have bursts of postin’ frenzy either 'cause I’m in a bit of a down mood and I want to lose myself in the boards, or I’m actually in a splendiferous wonder of a mood that’s more up than an upswing (like tonight).

That mean I can’t do it either? Sheesh! Such grumble-fuzzlets!

Argh,and nobody who finds my one liners annoying has said anything about the link.

handy ‘only’ has 10 posts per day, Flamsterette_X 9.07.

73 posts per day, if maintained, would suck. Especially if they’re like the posts in this thread.

…so far.

Yeah, SD, okay, fine, that was a good post. << pats SD on head >>

So was the Math Thread, which I thought was actually a good question.

I thought this was a good question, too.

However, this–

–was a total dumbass response. Waste of pixels, SD. So was this:

I’m selecting those two because they were both in Great Debates. Teens who are up in the middle of the night in a silly mood are, generally speaking, not welcome in Great Debates. If you keep it up, expect serious Pit flames within the week. So exercise those powers of discrimination a bit more and you’ll be on a better track. :wink:

Maybe too much for them to read after th’ one-liners? :slight_smile:

I’ll thank you for sharing, anyway, SmileyDeath.

Wikkit, the operative word here is “if”. I don’t think less than a day is enough time to go judging, here.

If Smiley’s still a postin’-fiend in a few days time (hey, sleep has to happen sometime, right?) – then have at 'im, by all means.

owl: You forgot to mention that he says he’s good at Science but sees no need for Math. That alone is the death knell for him making it in Science.

You know, before they did whatever they did a few weeks ago to make the board go faster, nobody would ever manage to make 80 posts in a day. Heck, even my posting has gone up alot, I was pretty much 3-4 posts per day for months, then have found myself posting 10+ times per day over the last couple weeks. Perhaps it’s just a symptom of better board speed. I’ll go ahead and give SD the benefit of the doubt for now, since he does seem to be contributing. All I had seen before was some post-count padding one-line replies, so I won’t take him on that basis alone anymore.

I’m planning on being a english professor, not a biologist or something.
I like science and I’m good at it.

Heck, I was never that much of a posting fiend… at least not compared to our young friend here. I think at the very most, my average was maybe 15 or so posts a day. There was no way I could maintain 73 posts a day! :eek:

F_X

Hey flamsterre I live really close to you.
I live in surrey.

So, is this high-postcount rate bizzo a Canadian thing, then? :smiley:

Goodnight everybody.
