OH MY, I have made page 1 (sorted by post count)

Woohoo! I have moved all the way up to Page 8.

Here is a vaguely related question. I noticed that in the Ryan Dancey thread Mike Mearls commented that most messageboards have a hardcore group of ~50 people. I am on here most every day and I seem to post a bit. Maybe not as much as Crothian, but I still do OK. I am something like #228 in post count, at the minute. I know there are a lot of people that are mostly lurkers on EN World. Does that 50-person hardcore group hold true with EN World?

i think what mike meant was 50 people = roughly 5 % of the total members.


i lurk on many boards. and i'm not hard core on any of them.

Something just catch you. :D Sure I am the last one on page 1 but a landmark!
Congrats, and I did note to myself when I made page 1 also a while back so you're not alone in that regard. :)

Of course I did all of my posting in under a year. :cool:

Edit: Here's a link for those unsure how to get to it.

Of course the one who's really on a move up the ranks is Thanee, he/she was ahead of me, and then I passed him/her, we stayed neck and neck for a week or two and now he's/she's like 500 posts head of me. :eek: (may the world’s worst lurker beware.)

I thought Thanee was a he? Not that it really matters, he or she has good things to say and I like to read Thanee's posts.

I remember almost setting my .sig to "16,500 posts behind Crothian. Losing ground daily." Now it would be closer to "18,500 posts behind Crothian. Losing ground daily." :) Still, it is post content, not post count that means anything. I can happily say I like reading a lot of posters posts, regardless of how many posts they have.

I could be wrong, I've asumed there but based upon avatar, the few character he/she has in the PbP I've thought female for a long time... Then again if you simply saw my own character selection, leaving out my obviously male user name and and my male inclinded avatar, you would probaly assume I was female. (I've created a lot of female character in a row it seems.)

Anyhow, I shall and should edit my post to reflect the male/female thing. :)

I agree, Thanee always brings a good point to thread and it doesn't matter except for when you want to refer to someone with a pronoun. :)

I agree, I keep most of my posts in the PbP forums, and with my promotion the staff forum, and rarely adventure to the other forums except when bored so hopefully my posts aren't to tedious on anyone. ;)

I don't think so, I have been around a very long time and think myself as a average poster. After a period my post will drop, EN.World always seems to have an influx of new posters (I don't know if they are new members or old), example of this is Glassjaw, I have been seeing a number of post by him, last year it was ArthurQ. I am sure they are around but you start seeing more and more activity from them.

The nature of the boards also seems to bring out a lot of people, it is one of the nicest forums on the internet, people come out of their shells (tech term web shock:)) from where they have seen forums where the nature is to attack and defend, EN.World is not like that.
