Is the "number of posts" seen to be a badge of prestige?

    Is that meant to be insulting?

    You made me look! I've been here since 2001 and just hit 3000 posts (and here's one more :smilewinkgrin:).

    I honestly have no clue of my post count. I've been posting using only my phone for almost a year, and it doesn't show signatures, or things like that. On a related note, my tapatalk app is acting up on my new phone. I'll sometimes see that someone posted, but I won't see the content of their post. As if they deleted the whole post.

    of course, everything I post is meant as an insult. I hate people and hate having interaction with them. I figure if I insult everyone I meet I can get off this forum a lot faster. (that is sarcasm)

    As stated before - you do need a minimum number of posts to be admitted to one of the private forums. ( want to say its 100, but not sure)

    The post number that interests me the most is the "posts per day"

    If someone has a high number - say 30 - I would be thinking - they need to get a life!

    My other thought would be it would be great if there was a way to present the number of posts per forum. I have seen a few folks post only in one or two. IMHO - they need to expand their horizon. And we must all need to heed Proverbs 17:22. Everyone needs to post in the humor and/or games section! (ps please post here - not enough replies yet )

    It is interesting to the check the "find all posts" of an individual - and you can get an ideal about that individual. Especially, those who have been a member for over a year - and have less than a hundred posts - lets see that would be .3 per day?..........................

    I actually thought the buckwheat commit quite funny (guess I pictured it as I was reading). I don't get it as an insult.

    When you finally make it to the 10,000 + category(Note: Where blackbird is)-----start looking for Charles Stanley Carribean cruises and David Jeremiah Alaskan cruises "on the house" offers!!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

    One BB member here who is an administrator(we won't mention names but her initials are SaggyWoman)---she flies free anywhere in the world-----just because she worked herself up from the BB gutter to be a loyal administrator!!(blackbird kids you not!!!)

    Wow blackbird....I have been on the BB for simply ages, but this is NOT reflected in my postings! So if I got to the magic number I could go a cruisin'....would I have to go to the USA? Would I have to revert?


    This is in jest, as the chances of filling the quota is next to nix. I also would have to live closer....transport is very expensive here, mail bags seem to go around the world in a leaky boat with an armless oarsman!

    When blackbird had enough posts to qualify him to enter the Private Women's forum-----he really looked forward to it---he begged and pleaded with some of the most brilliant administrators of the past---and finally was granted excess----------upon entering said forum blackbird soon discovered that there's not much in there to see!!!

    that comes out to just under 6 posts a day


    Are you getting excited about breaking 6,ooo?
    (based on your average, it will take another 3 months to break 6 k)

    Other than when Miss Scarlett was there to scold us about our cat conversations. She fit in pretty well for a girl.
