Hmm... I would have to say that I agree with that as well. I would be much happier having 630 posts and be respected and known by the general populace of the boards than have 5,000 posts and be somebody that nobody cares about in the least.

What is everyone going on about?

And so the problem remained; lots of people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches. Many were increasingly of the opinion that they had all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that the trees had been a bad move and that no one should ever have left the oceans. - Douglass Adams

I think you are all a bunch of bloody loonies trying to show off your post count. Sheesh!

Err.. not everyone. At least not me. What's to show off about 630 or so posts? It's not very impressive.

They really shouldn't.....

Posts alone don't show how "established" you are. It a combo of posts, date registered, and how well known/liked you are.

I only have the first two going for me

But seriously... it doesn't matter how many posts you have. It's just how you act around here. If you want to become better known and/or meet some of the "established" people, swing by #ev3 on IRC some time. It's a lot of fun, I promise

server: irc.ambrosiasw.com
connect script: /join #ev3

that's all you need to punch into ShadowIRC. So, come, enjoy.

When I try to use that adress to go to this place you describe I just get a page describing how the site was made with OS X and something about "Apache"

I'd love to be known on all this webboard, but I don't see it happening. Liked,
also, seems unlikely.

I DO mind my language, but I don't think that all of my posts have entirely
pleased the viewer, and my little argument of RMA (mostly over AIM, the rest is
now deleted) might have knocked my karma points down a bit if any moderators saw.

Oh well, I'll work on it. By the way, the following people here I notice a lot helping people:
Captain Carnotaur - whose everywhere. Omnipresent seems to be the word.
Captain Skyblade - who keeps putting two posts next to each other (like me :)!)
Flatulence - Pardon my spelling - And yes, I HAVE noticed your language, but that doesn't matter that much.
VoinianAmbassador - He's really very helpful, have you all noticed?

And a few others..........
