funny some boards actually care about how many posts one has... It was like the more posts you had the closer to a extreme gnr fan you were :hihi:  Once you got near the admin the bannings came out, simply rediculous/// To think how many posts you have means anything of knowledge in relation to gnr.. :rofl:

i was always fascinated by the fastly increasing number of your post james :hihi:

i remember the days when you got around 300.....some days later you had 600...some months later 2000...  now it`s more than 4000 and counting :hihi:

but there are newbies with 28 posts a day.....so watch out!!

Some people seem to have the misconception that the more posts they have, the bigger the chance they'll be made moderators....

Unfortunately for them, post count has very little to do with who becomes a moderator.

Yeah, it doesn't take long for post counts to rise. I actually liked it more back when I was in the 300-500 range. I had pretty much the same ideas and my opinions havent really changed since then, but now there is certain people here that despise me, and some have been cyber stalking me for about a year. Plus the constant insults towards me gets tiresome. Back then I didnt have that. I guess after you make it to a certain post count, you become "infamous" in some way. I dont know. Its strange. Pulling all nighters at this site is a big reason for my high post count. I work odd hours, and when I get home late at night, if no one is coming over, I pretty much just surf the net all fucking night. Most of that surfing is done here.
Some people seem to have the misconception that the more posts they have, the bigger the chance they'll be made moderators....

Unofrtunately for them, post count has very little to do with who becomes a moderator.

that`s not really a matter of the post count, people just seemed to have noticed you more, after you`ve been around for a while....

Yes. I've been told you were a founding member of that group, until you betrayed the group to become a mod. :hihi:

It just the impression I get as soon as there's talks about adding mods.

You know "You should make XXXXX a mod because (s)he's been here for years and posts a lot" or "YYYY has so and so many posts (s)he should be a mod"....

Yeah, I see what you mean. But I think that started when there was that "Who should be the next Mod?" thread last year. Alot of people were just picking the high profile posters at the time, who had alot of posts. Remember that me and SLCPunk "won" that little poll, but neither one of us is post whores because we are desperate to be mods.

Alot of censorship going on the forums lately. It really sucks. I feel bad for the long time users. Recently, amid the leak craze, Jarmo picked two new moderators, and one only had a post count of like 1000. I know several longtime loyal htgth members were very pissed about that, and felt like it was a stab at them. Its like he picked a friend or something.  And they wont hardly let people talk honestl;y about the leaks.Too much mod politics at the other forums. Administrators and mods should never brag about their status, or rub various other things in people's faces. It gets old. Quick.

You are one pathetic loser. Nice to see I have another stalker here. Also nice to see you like to twist my words around, misquote me on something that was actually a discussion about something else, and nice to see you spending your time at the small forum I'm involved in.

Are you laughing about how you only misquoted what I was saying to make it fit into this topic? You are just as pathetic as my other stalkers. Actually, you are worse. You are supposedly a moderator at another site, and should be holding yourself to a certain standard. Instead of this bashing and trying to start some lame forum war. You need to get laid, or come out of the closet or something.

I dont fuck up with grammar that bad. Everyone here knows that. I'm a writer. Nice try though.

I said some of it. I remember mentioning how new mods were added here, because we have had a few discussions about mods because its a new site, and we had a couple of very immature mods when the site first started. But him(or one of his goons) added certain things to it to make it sound like that. Someone got access to my account there 2 days ago, and we actually had to go into maintenance mode for a couple hours. I have always used the same password at all forums I go to(including his), and he probably got my password from thenewguns after those people banned me.

I thought someone gained access to my account to try and fuck up the forum or post a bunch of links to the demos. Me and the admin concentrated on those aspects of their little "forum hack". I did not think to go through my older posts to see if they had edited any of my posts. Those newguns guys are a bunch of fucking losers.

how do i know who did it. Jarmo will prove it wasnt me if you ask him. And i know it wasnt rainx because hes in pennsylvania on a holiday for a few days. So really you need to stop accusing people of doing something when you have no idea who it was. But Like I have allready stated it wasn't me, so really you need to get over it.

Are you really that stupid? You(or one of your goons) access my account over there, edits my posts with bad grammar, and after stalking me from thread to thread, you see an opportunity to do something. That is disgusting.
 As soon as I point out what you did over there, all of a sudden there is a new member here named "JAMESLOFTONSUCKS".

Just for the record I never asked to be a mod, or posted often in hopes of becoming one.

I have a high post count on most the forums I post on: this one, two car forums, and mine. I also post on various political websites in hopes of getting a right wing poster so angry that he throws his monitor across the room.

Edit: I did get one email from a poster wondering why "we" did not get picked as mods. It never occured to me that I was in the running, nor (no offense to anybody) did I care if I was or not. I come here to post my rantings daily; hopefully somebody will get a kick out of them. If not, then that only goes to show my wife is right: that I am crazy as a loon.

I didn't mention any names, JamesLofton thinks I was speaking about certain people here but the truth is, the same thing has been happening ever since we were on Ezboard.

Some people expect to be picked and when they're not, they wonder why because they post a lot.

Im not gonna lie, I was kinda curious as to how the mods were chosen and did get curious if i was at least considered but I would never stop posting or start posting more because of it.

I said some of it. I remember mentioning how new mods were added here, because we have had a few discussions about mods because its a new site, and we had a couple of very immature mods when the site first started. But him(or one of his goons) added certain things to it to make it sound like that. Someone got access to my account there 2 days ago, and we actually had to go into maintenance mode for a couple hours. I have always used the same password at all forums I go to(including his), and he probably got my password from thenewguns after those people banned me.

I thought someone gained access to my account to try and fuck up the forum or post a bunch of links to the demos. Me and the admin concentrated on those aspects of their little "forum hack". I did not think to go through my older posts to see if they had edited any of my posts. Those newguns guys are a bunch of fucking losers.

Noone can get your password from a forum unless they're hackers (and I'm not even sure if that can happen).

I've banned a couple of people from my forum. It doesn't mean that I can view their password.

Well, it happened. There is no doubt about that. Maybe the fact that I always used a GNR related password made it easier. Crazy to do that I know, but I never expected someone to ever waste their time doing that kind of shit to me.



Jim: You really dont see how my stalkers act towards me? When you have the time, follow me around in a few threads and you'll see them. Until this little episode, they had left me alone for a few days. Maybe Jarmo had warned them or something, or maybe they found a new person to stalk. I don't know. But it sure sucks to have a new one on my ass when I hadn't seen the others in awhile.

Since many people thinks that being a post whore is gonna increase your post number (which is true) I think a best way is to creat a game forum where post doesnt increase, for instance games like say something from the person above you, if you like game, continue the history, what are you listening right now and stuff like that, just a suggest  : ok:
Perhaps it could be inside the jungle area.

I've seen this on other boards too, but who is to say the persons post would amount to anything in the GnR section? If they post 20 times in one thread claiming Slash is better then BH, how is that any more relevant then any game thread?

yes/no/ : ok:/bellend/^ has red hair ? :drool:/etc etc

all the amount of posts you have only indicate how active you are and im sure a mod isnt picked cos he/she is here a lot

ok, I can respect that.  But what of the people who aren't mods that desperately want to be?  Why?  Is it for power or do they think the existing mods don't do a good job?  We've all seen people post and ask how to become a mod.  Or people secretly pissed that they aren't "chosen".  What's the deal?

For that matter, why do people get so worked up about post counts?  People are always accusing others of trying to boost their post count, saying their posts shouldn't count, etc.  Who cares and why?  Is it a respect thing?

Who the fuck knows... A vr forum I belong to doesn't even have a post count... When I was at mygnr I had many posts and I kept getting pms saying I was trying to boost my post count and this n that bullshit, yet I was posting hundreds of words per post..  I use to get this because I was catching up to the admin and she felt weird because I was getting close.. it was like the more posts you had the closer to admin you were going to be... :hihi: I think people feel it matters for some stupid fucking reason.... I never understood why anyone cares how many posts someone has as long as they actually say something when tehy write.. SOme people like to browse all day ,some like to be in the talks themselves..  It's the same shit when someone says what do you know noobs you only have 5 posts he has 200?? it's fucking lame.... ANyone that worries about how many posts another person has or someoent hat just posts smilies to get alot is out of their minds

The whole "numer of postings" is ridiculous. You have people who come onto this board  and do a blitz  of meaningless  postings  just  to get numbers  very quickly. I noticed, for  instance, Skynyrd Girl, who in a matter  of 2-3 weeks went from 0 to over  1500. It is just an example, not to pick on the poor girl whose ambition is to be  a porn star.  :rofl:

My point: if postings are to meant to measure  some sort  seniority, it fails  miserably. Alternatives  would be  to consider the time one has been registered, the number  of  words posted,  or some other  measure  that gives credence to longevity and not simply  to frequency, which  as I have suggested  can be  fudged.

Just an idea. But I doubt anything will actually happen.

Well, I think it's the least bad system.

I don't really care about it.

The only thing I've used it for, is to determine whether a poster who's been breaking the rules should know the rules by now (granted it would be cool if everyone would read them before they started posting).

My theory is that the more posts you have, the less "real life" you have. Sorry if I offended anyone, it  is just a theory. I know that when I get busy I will go weeks without posting. Only when I am between projects or bored do I post. So in reality, the winners are the losers.  :hihi:

I think a very accurate way to determine seniority is the total time someone has been logged in, because there is time spent reading the board.

2 days ago someone started a thread in the main gnr section that may or may not have been true, and everyone was defending him because he had been a member since 2004 and he had high 3 digits of posts.  So all you have to do is do a quick check, and here he had been logged in for only a total of 1 day and some hours, and 85% of his posts were in the bad obsession/jungle sections.   I've been logged in reading for a total of over 12 days in that time (and i'm on dial up so it's not like I just leave my computer on to add up time) and since I have less than 200 posts I would have less seniority than him, even though I can tell you everything about GNR that has happened here the past 4 years and can tell you the personality of most board members.
