How long has that "behad is a b*tch issue" been goin on and how come you had to close it b4 I could post Clutch?!?!? Anyways, how come every post I see in the BBS Forum (well, almost every post) has been either started by a newbie or has been replied to by a newbie 2 consecutive times? And how come Newbies are starting threads and talking to other newbies??!!??! What's wrong with the BBS these days? Back in my day, (hehe) we used to respect others that had post counts higher than us. No matter if we were at 99 and they were at 100, if they were higher they deserved. But now, you see little people running around everywhere running their mouth! AAAAAHHHHH. Yes, that is all for today. ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead. I started the cowhead craze, and my cowhead inspired Mooch to step up and bring us a victory. Thank you for your time.
Oh yeah and Clutch, don't close this cuz it wouldn't be fair. You didn't close the one where someone went AAAAARGHHHHHH!!!!! in the topic.......plus I got connections and I have over 1000 posts.....gotta give me some leniancy. ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead. I started the cowhead craze, and my cowhead inspired Mooch to step up and bring us a victory. Thank you for your time.
That's becuase half of the people with higher post counts got that way by posting "me too" or "free post" messages. Why should one respect that? The respect I give a poster is based only on what I think of the post, not the post count. ------------------
No, not really. Only bout 1/5 of the people.........get your stats right.....It's like BobFinn.......03.......then they're a big dropoff...... ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead.

Just a hunch, but I think ya took his comment a weeeeeeee bit too seriously. ------------------ "So you say you want some intelligent responses? I say give me something intelligent to respond to." -- Dimwits beware, B-Ball freak tells it like it is. Sing it bro!
Yeah, I realized that after his second post but I had already submitted it before his 2nd hit the board. That and the whole "free post" thing is really a pet peeve of mine. I don't think we should even display post counts becuase too many people think quantity becomes more important than quality. So it hit a bit of a nerve. ------------------
I hear ya. But on most Internet BBS's when a thread gets filled with "free posts" or "I made it before the LOCK!" posts, it means it was a worthless post. I don't think too many people outside of Francis3 give a flip about their post counts. Most of the people that mention it, do it for fun. Take for instance the fact that I have way more posts than you do. You don't think I'd somehow take that to mean I'm better do you? ...say "yes" peon. ------------------ "So you say you want some intelligent responses? I say give me something intelligent to respond to." -- Dimwits beware, B-Ball freak tells it like it is. Sing it bro!
As far as post counts go, I've made mention of only two of mine...1000 and 2000. These, to me, are a testament of my love and enjoyment of this site more than a show of "look how many I have". I've only done a "freepost" thing maybe a dozen times. I got my posts the old fashion way: fantasy leagues and trivia contests! BTW, Trivia III is scheduled for mid May. Warm up those typing fingers and get that DSL line you've been wanting, because speed counts! Can Summer Song Giver defend his title?

People have joked about it before, but I think there should be a certain number of posts you must have to start a thread. Although, it might not work(Because there are some dummies with over 500 posts), I think it would help a little. ------------------ Never Underestimate the Heart of a Champion
