Is it just me, or are there a LOT of people who somehow shoot up their post counts in like, a month? I consider myself pretty involved in a lot of conversations on kirupa, but I’ve seen people that join after me, and somehow have 1000 posts about a month after they join. Are there even that many topics? I know there are some hardcore spam threads(coughkteamnonaffiliatedcultcough), but even those have some funny and constructive stuff in them. Strange times.
If you want, you can PM me or another mod the names of those who you think may be unnecessarily spamming, and we’ll check out their posts and PM them if they are getting too much of an adrenaline rush from clicking the New Thread or Post Reply buttons
yeah, i know, 'cause i was one of them but that was in the days i was at my internship going through a living hell of boredom
but i must say since i finished that, my posts per day average has dropped about 8 posts, so you can say i’m sort of losing my addiction to K-man
Hell ya. And sadlly enough some of the other big members have stopped posting or don’t frequent the forums as much; lost, vts, kit, mike, lava, ju88a, thor, alex, even unflux (i know he’s got work), asphaly & so on…
Dang :sigh:
Kirupaforums ain’t what they used to be. But I can’t tell if it changed for the worst or the better. Quality has also improved, hasn’t it…
(oh and for the posts skyrocketing: a) the word association thread b) movie quote thread and lately c) the red to white magic thread…)
Well that’s kind of odd. Just becuase someone loves these forums alot that they post a lot is bad? Not saying I am, I don’t have that many.
I really like the old feature we had, you know the perecentage jammy to see where members post the most.
Let me try to install that and see if it works again!
Yay. Then besides the arcade icon trophies we’ll have the spammer’s trophy :trout:
Oh that’d be awsome!
I think I posted about 1k posts in the last month. Whether that be for the good of the forum or for the total destruction is still up in the air.
I’m all for randomness in the random forums, so long as it uses a bit of creativity.
I agree. I think most of the spammers are usually caught and publically trouted anyway
I wasn’t really complaining… it was more of an observation. But I do think post count determines a “rank” of sorts. Mods are obviously mods because of their bold names, but just because someone posts madly in the word association game (I’m guilty too. It’s fun!
) doesn’t mean they should be asked questions, or looked up to because of the status that comes with the “1k+” rank. Maybe an improvement of the voting system or something to determine status? I dunno. I like the current system, but I’m just putting up some “helpful advice”.
Quit complaining!! :lol:
I like to think that post count does not matter, though I know that that’s not true.
I would like to see a different “ranking” system… a change of some sort.
Yeah I get IM’s all the time with people asking all sorts of random questions from PHP to CSS to AS… Look… You obviously haven’t read any of my 3,400 posts if you’re IM’n me for advice. If you have a question about how to create a 1k post thread about nothing hit me up, otherwise I’m about as useful as a fork with no prongy things.
ah Kman, thats so boring, PM???
why not let the names out here, lets see some good old fashioned flame fights we used to have, oooh i miss em somuch its been a while too, everything is good for a change too, right? :bad:

Same Here
A couple years ago when I first came here It was certainly all for learning purposes. Then I joined the fourms for the same reason. I usually need help more than I can help.
But.
The conversations, Debates, jokes, battles and funny stuff is what I am really addicted to. Now if I am considered a spammer for hanging out in random and participating in whats going on here…well…whatever.
If the powers that be have a problem with that they can ban my account and IP. But then of course I will have to mutilate them, thier familes and anyone thay have ever cared about
Well said bro, i m wid ya 100% on this one, theres another solution, pause the post count on random for everyone, is it possible? if yes, i dont mind…guess no one will…i hope
I believe we did that once… and it actually worked… if my memory serves me right… which is usually doesn’t…
Isn’t that a spoon? :h:
