The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
It seems to me there are 3 types of poster n this site, in terms of the amount and how often they post.
1. The REAL regular - messages everyday, in the top 100 of posters that week and all time regularly - eg. Grix, Wookiemonster, Pb, SSX Pro etc (How do they do it?) They have all been on for a long time, yet some are on for only a few days, and have posted huge amounts of messages.
2. The 'casual' browser - On the site for a long time - 200+ days, and posted only a few messages - myself (250 days - i think, and only 450 messages so far) included.
3. The non-poster. I don't know if they browse and not post, but they are on for along time, or a short time and do not leave much evidence of them being here. eg - auf.
What do you think?

Well, I'm not going to say too much, or I'll end up offending people, but the bottom line is this: too much emphasis is put on the post count. They could be the biggest spammer in the world and be no. 1 on post count and have more acclaim than someone who writes quality posts with the best word count you've ever seen. It does annoy me the post count is put before the word count, as it should be vice verca.

No, well, when I first came here, you seemed like a spammer, but what I was trying to say is that you've improved a lot. A few posts I just read, were actually quite good and raised some decent points.
By, the way, I'm not Shaneo. It all started when Ice Blaster replied to my topic in the WWF forum and said "Now what was the point in that Shaneo? Boosting your word count?". He then replied and said "LOL, sorry firebalt, I was talking to shaneo whilst reading ands replying to this and got muddled up: my mistake.", retracting his previous statement.
So, let's try and sort this out on MSN!

I agree, and not because if it was the other way around I would go up about 40 places on the board!
