Post count- Why do we care?

[Darth K'Trava]

If we were to take away post counts that have that phrase you would only have about 37 actual posts.

So true, so true.

[uppity]I'm sor-ry, but I don't recall us asking for opinions from the sub-1,000 rabble.[/uppity]



I am, of course, just kidding. And you're right, that might be part of it.

Time to reiterate that epithet I gave you awhile back: Cocky Bastard!

Heehee, its always interesting when people correct me and they're wrong.

I do try to spell and use grammar correctly to the best of my ability, even on forums. That includes leaving prepositions in the middle of sentences in which they are included.

Yup. And the same thing goes for spelling as well. I can't stand typos in my posts, although the rare one will slip by. Usually when I'm tired.

 

[Darth K'Trava]

Yes, yes. I'm still sleepy groggy - and got a headcold to boot.

Psst., Torm: Cold-Eeze works well for getting rid of nasy colds!

Kiss my grits.

Being a Yankee, I doubt Rystil would get that one...

Also, this reminds me of something funny I did to a girl named Angie that I knew back in high school. We were in study hall, and she was talking to one of the cheerleaders about their SAT scores. The cheerleader was depressed because she scored in the 600s and was telling Angie how smart she was because she scored 970, and that she wished she was as smart as her.

Eventually, as I knew she couldn't resist doing, Angie turned and asked me what I had made. I bowed my head sadly, and said, "750." She said, "What happened?!" I let the sad look hang for a another moment, and then grinned evilly and said, "but that was just on the Math part."

This was back before they wussied the tests up, and way before they changed the max score to 2400. I dislike that they do that - I know its necessary to keep the tests updated, but it makes my 1470 look worse and worse.

Considering the fact that I never took it....

Ah, but I very rarely started new threads. I would answer questions in the rules forum instead of asking for help. And people would ignore me, and then a page later someone with a high post count would say exactly the same thing I did, and the poster would thank them and that would be that

I think you were that one who started that thread, griping about being ignored all the time....

Seriously...I don't.

Talk to yourself alot?

 

[Darth K'Trava]

Now see, I try very hard to not artificially inflate my postcount. Which is why I chose not to engage in hivemind. Others will have a different opinion about that. I'm sure many people that participate in hivemind don't care that they are increasing their postcount. They just like the random goofiness that it affords them.

Gotta love the goofiness! All hail the goofiness!!!

 

[Darth K'Trava]

But it does matter, for whatever reason. Now that my postcount is higher, people listen to me a lot more.

Huh? Did someone say something?

No, that was someone else who had the same problem. I think I posted once in the thread to say that people do it to me too, but they ignored me there too :\
