I have noticed it for quite sometime now. What's wrong with having a small amount of posts? I see people posting just for posting's sake just to increase their post count. I can understand not wanting to be a junior member, but posting just to increase post total is just ridiculous! hehe... What is this called, post envy? I think I shall conduct my own empirical psychological experiment and in the process find out if there is a direct correlation between post total and level of ego. Oh yeah, and don't even think about bring my post total into this. (j/k) ------------------

Also in direct response to the antagonism that is sure to follow with the 1000 and up post club toward fellow "100 posters" , I hearby decree that a CLUTCHCITY CIVIL RIGHTS BILL be written to prevent any posters to be discriminated against because of their post count, quality of post, or idea behind the post. But before we go that far, we need a CLUTCHCITY.NET CONSTITUTION and before we go that far, lets declare our independence!!!!! "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all posters are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator "Clutch" with inherent and inalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty, and the pursuit of posting whenever and however the hell you want; that to secure these rights, administrators are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of Clutch; that whenever any administrator becomes derogoatory to no end, it is the right of the poster or posters to post the administrators pedigree for everyone to see, and to institute a new forum, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their happiness and peace of mind to post." --Declaration of Post Independence as originally written by Rocket101, 2000. ------------------ Be sure to water your grass
I just want the right to delete a lousy post if I feel I have posted one ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.
Bobo, how about exercising your right not to post a lousy post in the first place? Hurry up season, I can't wait much longer... ------------------ Falk that Mo Fo!!!
I guess I will have to from now on ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.
Just whenever you guys feel the need to rack up posts just tap your feet together and say: QUALITY OVER QUANTITY QUALITY OVER QUANTITY QUALITY OVER QUANTITY QUALITY OVER QUANTITY I actually have the solution. Clutch needs to get rid of the post count for all users. ------------------ Be sure to water your grass
If I waited until I had a quality post to make, I wouldn't have any posts at all on these boards. P.S. I like the competition and all that is involved with trying to get to the 1,000 post club and beyond. ------------------ HoustonSportsBoard.com SpiritOfTheBull.com
Just adding to my post count in a pathetic attempt to gain acceptance from those with more posts than me... Carry on... ------------------ If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding!!

That concept is anarchy and not allowed here. Mango ------------------ 1. Put new topics in the proper forum. Things happening in the rest of the NBA 2. Use clear wording for new threads. 3. No duplicate threads 4. Conduct yourself as an adult. The Serious Police are watching. Donate Blood or be assimilated!
BUT, THEN WE WOULDN'T HAVE SO MUCH CRAP TO WADE THROUGH TO FIND THE GOOD THREADS. THAT'S WHAT MAKES FINDING A GOOD THREAD IN A SEA OF UTTER CRUD SO REWARDING.... CLUTCH KNEW THE RISKS IF HE ADDED THE POST COUNT FEATURE TO THE BOARD. WE ALL DISCUSSED IT IN A THREAD ON THAT VERY TOPIC. WE DISCUSSED BOTH THE POSITIVES AND THE NEGATIVES. NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, THERE WILL AWAYS BE SOME WHO PUSH THE ENVELOPE, STRETCH THE BOUNDARIES, AND SOME WHO JUST FLAT OUT ABUSE THEIR PRIVILEGES. MY TAKE IS: IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE "POSTING RACE", DON'T PARTICIPATE. JUST IGNORE IT. I MEAN WHAT EFFECT DOES IT REALLY HAVE ON YOU LIFE? IF YOU DO, THEN DO. BUT, REMEMBER EVERY POST TAKES UP SERVER SPACE. COULD YOU IMAGINE IF YOU HAD A WEB PAGE WITH A MESSAGE BOARD AND PEOPLE WOULD COME IN THERE AND JUST WASTE YOUR MEMORY ALLOWANCE ON POSTING JUST FOR THE SAKE OF POSTING? I'D SHUT IT DOWN, IF YOU ASK ME. BUT, THANK GOD THAT CLUTCH AIN'T ME. ------------------ I HAVE A DREAM.........HIS NAME'S HAKEEM.

Post Envy? Sounds like one of the units at the Bob Finn* School of Posting. I believe one of the graduate outcomes of that school is to become a master of procastination, like the headmaster himself.

r0cket03 and mrpaige, it seems that you are in the first stage of post envy. Denial. I suggest 2 weeks of counciling and remediation and then you will have made it to the second step of post envy: acceptance. Apparently Bob Finn is past acceptance with his post "I am a postoholic".
