Or you could just type meaningless drivel and post it.
Or, maybe you could start a big arguement that will require about 20 different posts to resolve it.
Or, you could start 20 different threads per day. I believe that they count as posts.
Or, you can praise the almighty Cecil. Oh Cecil…god among men, giver of knowledge, almighty columnist!!! (Maybe this will get me welcomed by Cecil. If not, it was worth the try.)
See! I went from 74 posts to 81 posts in about 5 minutes. You can do it too!
quietly padding her post count
This post is number 2 for me…but then again it is DAY 1.
Don’t feel bad. A person of few words is a good thing. We then know you really are adamant when you do type out a long one.
It is true that quality over quanity is best. When people start posting too much, other people stop reading their posts because of content. How much can one person have to say?
It seems like most people who’ve been here for a month have made more posts than I managed to make in well over a year!
I’ve been here a bit. I have a few posts. Not so few that I haven’t been posting (though I may have had no effect) but not many to speak of.
I’m just a mediocre poster I guess.
Oh well.
Good to see you guys out and abouting! (and add this to the rest of my fluff posting)
WOW! I’m flattered to be recognized.From the limited responses I can only deduce that most long time members with low post counts don’t visit the boards as often as myself and hence they probably missed this thread.
Edlyn I’m really really sorry about your grandbaby.If there is anything I can do to help let me know. While I realize there probably isn’t much I can do due to distance I want you to know you have my total support. My e-mail address is qwisp@mediaone.net. sshhh that’s just between you and I Drop me a line if you want a shoulder to lean on.
As I noted in the OP I also said I don’t post useless drivel. Maybe you should take my advice.
I’ve got a low post count. (just thought I would add my name to the list)
Qwisp, I know who you are also. A person of few words perhaps, but a person of quality.
Yes, I noticed that some people have extremely high post counts, more than twice of mine and they came a year after me! I have to wonder about the quality of those people’s posts…
Looks around . . . such as?
I’ve been here for a little while and am not that high… Then again, I don’t post much. I’m on this message board disgusting amounts, though. I mostly just read and bow to everyone’s superior intellect, though. =>
(A secret: the real reason I’m posting this is to see my registration date =>)
I like to read, but I don’t like to type.
My post count is low as well. I’ve always thought it was because I usually visit the board late in the day and by then what ever I think should be said about a thread already has been said by someone else and ‘me too’ is just a lame post.
I find it interesting to lurk and just read other people’s posts. I find my posts are usually ignored.
Quisp, I bow to the master.
It’s like I allus say… If you think you’ve got nothing to say, go with that impulse.
My count isn’t too low, especially since I had to take a 2 month hiatus, but still…There are people who started around the same time as me, and they have post counts triple mine! Shocking. I was happy to just break 500.
Qwisp - I too was surprised by your low post count. I thought it was much higher, as I remember thinking how articulate and smart you are after reading many of your posts.
