What's your posting rate or pattern?

This is my 100th post in 5 months, or ~5 posts/week.

I’ve just been told I don’t post enough, but the stats show an average of 78 posts per user.

At this thread, How many one post wonders?
**bibliophage and Anthracite ** calulated the Mode to be zero and the Median to be about 3 posts total.

So, what’s your rate? Do you think you’re posting enough?

Well, I was still below 200 posts when my one year anniversary came, but I have been posting a bit more lately. I’ve been here thirteen months and still have less than 300 posts. Moderation is good. :slight_smile:

~42.5 a week.

Posts to threads in each form.

1= MPSIMS 433
2= IMHO 182
3= BBQP 151
4= GQ 127
5= ATMB 104
6= GD 42
7= CoCC 2

The rest made up by multiple posts to threads. I post when I want to. Sometimes I go days without posting(not that often) and sometimes I post a lot per day. Depends what’s happening really.

Where do you find this stuff out? Anyway, I post every night, around 6-10 o’ clock. I post like five to ten a night, maybe more.

Put your username into the search engine then select ANY DATE and select a forum. It tells you how many threads you posted to in that forum. :slight_smile:

I post about 5 times a month. It could/should, be more, but I enjoy reading the boards without posting so it’s not something I’m worried about. I generally prefer lurking. I guess there are a lot of subjects which interest me but about which I seem to have no real informed opinion. Some threads are pretty invloved or heated by the time I first see them. When I do post it tends to be in small batches of two or three at a time (this is my third today… I think I need a break… starting to cramp up). I suppose that it’s sort of a momentum thing. Then again it’s also a matter of the topics. If there were as many threads about hockey as there are about football I’d probably be over 200 by now. I do realize that I could always initiate a thread if so inclined, but it’s not something that really bothers me. Still, seeing the averages is making me feel like a pro.

Probably around 5 or 6 posts a day. Unless I get really into something.

19 June to 20 Dec = 6 months = 183 days

1431 posts/183 days = 7.8 posts per day (average).

I take my time posting. Sure I’m only around 40 something in the posts but the vast majority of my posts aren’t crap either. I’ve said this before but if someone is going to do a bunch of posting in a short period of time at least be INTELLIGENT about it. Thank you carry on.

Posting rate pretty low. Not much to say.

95 posts in 7 months, fine with me. I don’t care about my post count, and wonder why others do. I’m a lurker, have been since AOL, and will continue to do so. :slight_smile:

I’ve got over 200 posts in about three weeks. I mainly post while i’m at work (read: bored), and I don’t post on weekends.

punk snot dead,
broccoli!

I post in dumps . . a few hours will usually give me about ten posts, if not more.

I post at the following rates:

~16 per day
~110 per week
~500 per month

I joined June 6 and hit 3000 December 3. I am on track, roughly, to hit 3500 by January 6, though if I get a stint of time where nobody but me uses this machine (which will definitely happen) I make no promises.

Looks like I’m a slacker. :smiley: I have 3350+ posts, but I’ve been here since June of 1999. So you’ve cauge up to me with one less year.

My rates are therefore:
176 / month
6 / day

But I’ve had a few vacations and other busy RL times when I haven’t posted at all.

OK, I was pretty darn close. I registered the same day as Gunslinger, so I have been here for 184 days, and have 1127 posts. That’s 6.125 posts per day.
