    What's "big"?

    Why is it that my instinctive response to this keeps being 'You'll know the first time you see one?'

    This made my day.
    Oh, and it's true.

    That's a matter of personal preference. I believe there's such a thing as too big to be useful though.

    There are some people with high post counts just because they sit here and are irritating all day. They also like to pick fights with people.

    I'm sure there are a lot more with high post counts who actually want to help people.

    ETA: I'm surprised mine's not higher.

    My posts are low because I don't get a chance to read though the forums all that much and the ones that I do see are usually the newest posted or bumped like this one.

    Also, I don't post if:

    1. I don't have an intellignet question to ask
    2. I have nothing intelligent, enlightening or meaningful to add to a thread
    3. I have no pithy or snarky/satirical etc comments to make that would be humorous but not insulting in any way.

    So my post count is small.

    It's not the "size" of my post count that matters... it's what I do with those posts that matter. :wink:

    That's just what people with small post counts tell themselves.

    Ok, I'll let that slide...I've tried to get up a good post in cold water too.

    Not as easy as one would think.

    Without reading the entire thread, I'm guessing there's not all that many members with big post counts because they create new accounts and start over.

    cause the site is sort of newish still?

    cause when you post here for a long time and see the same stupid questions every day - you get smart mouthed and banished from the forums?


    I was going to come in here and post that.
    So, very much this.

    Ninerbuff. Slacker.


    The site started in 2005...I think those that have been around for a while will naturally have a higher count.

    Well, that or we like to argue. Or play word games. Or both.
