Does it worry moderators when someone goes from 1 post a week to 10 post an hour?

It's all in the title

Why?

Is it so bad that I went from being someone who only ever posted Press Releases to actively taking a role in the community?

I went from 98 posts to over 150 in one night. So 1 to 10 doesn't bother me. And should it bother anyone, when Crothian, Kitana, and Sixchan are making upwards to 40 posts per day?

Having gone from 2 posts in twelve months to 300+ in month thirteen...I think it's a good thing.

Why should de-lurking worry the mods?

Honestly, it makes us sing with joy. Literally! We all have cell phones.

If that makes you sing with joy, I don't want to think what seeing Crohtian postcount would do you feel... (or I do want guess, but your Gramma wouldn't like if I write it here...

)

Why, Blacksad? Do you think someone's given up on life so badly that they do nothing but post here any more?

Blacksad · 27th February 2003, 10:06 PM

Dinkeldog

So it's OK if I have crazy posting. I was worried that a sudden increase (or decrease) could trigger some kind of web alarm.

Horacio · 28th February 2003, 05:27 AM

The place: EN World secret HQ, some place under the Atlantic Ocean.

PPPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!! Web Alarm! Web Alarm! User Blacksad has gone rogue. Send EN Worlds operatives to Rennes and neutralise him.

* Lt. Piratecat, who is our nearest agent?

* Sir, according to my sources we have an agent in a town called Brest, not far from Rennes

* Who is him? Do I know him?

* Not sure, Captain Morrus. His ID is Horacio, he is a story hour addict and one of those Hiveminders...

* Hmmmm, I'd prefer somebody more reliable, but he will have to do the job. Contact him inmediatly.

* Yessir!

Today I was all over House Rules. It's almost disturbing. Some of the guys from my gaming group check out the boards and will kid me about my occasional random post glut. I can be obsessive at times . . .

Here seems to be my MO: I tend to lurk, cloaked and viewing as a guest, for long periods of time. Then, suddenly and without provocation; I decloak and attack with vengeance. I'll drive a slightly interesting idea into the ground then ask clarifying questions that effectively (though not intentionally) just keep bumping the thread. When I finally realize the thread as come and gone, I bashfully tuck my tail between my legs and fight the urge to ask just one more question . . . After that it's a lot of self doubt and bitter recrimination often involving eating Krispy Kreme donuts in an Exxon parking lot while pondering the death of the English language. I'll fill up my tank, peel out, and make my way to Mexico and freedom- horrible, horrible, freedom. I can beat it, I know I can. I won't ever post again. . .

Mercifully, my ideas seem to be getting better anyway.
