EN World is a very wonderful place.

I'm sorry, but that's a horrible, horrible tyop. I think you meant "Hivemind" not "EN World"

Hnuh?

Don't even get me started on that drek, you'd think they would be kicked off the site by now, but the special treatment continues.....

People aren't automatically going to think you're awesome with 3000 posts to your name. Post count means nothing.

Agreed. Although it could mean that people with posts in the thousands have no life.

Or maybe we just have more life than YOU do

It can mean a lot of things, which makes its useless to try to judge anything on Postcount; thus Postcount Means Nothing.

Sorry guys but I have to stick up for the Canadian phonetic spelling. It's broodle.

Don't you mean 'broodle, eh'?

I have seen many publishers state that if they receive submissions with many spelling and grammar errors, they throw them out without reading them. If I were a published game writer, I would take corrections as a chance to improve my work. I am a positive person that way. Then again, if I was going to leave a forum, I would just leave. Drawing attention to it seems a little too much like throwing a tantrum and slamming the metaphorical door behind oneself on the way out. Perhaps KaosDevice intended his post to be constructive criticism, but then the same could be said of the people who correct spelling and grammar. :\

I don't know if anyone said this and not to correct the original poster's choice of forum, but shouldn't this be in Meta ?

...

I'll leave now.

I actually disagree with that. As someone who has a low post count but lurks everyday, I've put that to a test. I used to frequent a MMORPG forum a few years ago where I had the highest post count and was one of the "popular" guys on the forum. No matter what I would post, I'd have at least one person quote and reply to me in any thread.

I noticed here that whenever I post, I don't get many replies. If I start a new thread, there's always replies to the original post which is nice, but it seems like pity replies just so the thread doesn't sink with 0 replies. I get that feeling because if I respond after the initial post, the only people to respond back are other low post count people (which is never many). The regulars never seem to respond again. But, when the regulars post on any thread, people will quote and respond to them over & over.

Not that I'm complaining, I understand how communities work and Enworld is the friendliest rpg forum I've visited. I get what I'm looking for on Enworld in the end. I just chuckle when high post count people always claim that post counts mean nothing. I've heard that so many times over the years and it's always from people with high post counts They mean something, because people usually pay more attention to what the regular posters have to say and people will respond directly to them time & time again.

This thread is a good example....Hong posts nonsense that has nothing to do with the thread, but provides a nice off-the-wall chuckle to readers. Yet, he'll always be quoted by another reader and responded to in some way or another. If I were to do that, no one would respond

But anyway, anyone who leaves Enworld should reconcider. RPGers are some of the most arrogant & annoying posters on the net, but at least on Enworld the posters reply more mature and respectful. Grammar Nazi's are the least of your problems on other rpg forums.
