What to do about post whoring affecting titles

[bermich]

Lesane's point hack. Look at the first page of this thread. After he rewrites it for vb3 I am sure that I will be adding it.

Oh. I wasnt quite sure what kind of a hack you meant. Not familiar with that stuff. I can build you house from the ground up though

Well lets just keep it how it is until you can initiate the point system. No sense changing it 3 times before then just to ease tensions of a few people in this thread.

Well you twisted my arm, but I'm sold. One hack for one house. You have a deal.

Jason can i be a newbie member again?

[RoNNy THe BuLL]

Regardless of who posts what or how much of anything...it still takes a very large, and good amount of posts to get your title.

By the time someone has 2000 posts, the rest of us will already KNOW what they're all about.

This shouldn't even be an issue.

[RoNNy THe BuLL]

To be honest with you, I don't even care about my title.

So what. Whether I'm a Vet or Mod or anything, I'm still going to post what I want to post up.

It's a message board on the net for god's sake homeys.

[FrkyBgStok]

i just noticed 100 posts whacked off my name. does that mean lounge points no good than?

[Da Bull]

That scares the shit out of me!!!!People lives are at risk here,and to many poor oppinions are floating around.....this is beyond my realm of thought...all for a few who are crying over post counts....now danger sets in,watch what happens in the other forums now poor unhealthly advice all over a lounge issue.Sad day indeed!

[FrkyBgStok]

Until the day comes when members receive perks for having certain titles, i can really care less whether someone average's 500 worthless posts a day in the Lounge and earns the right to customize their own title. To me respect is given by the value they provide to the board, not by how many post counts they have. We all know who adds value to this board and who only takes up bandwidth space. So I don't think there is a need to change anything anymore with the exception of adding the karma idea. I think that would work well.

[bigol'legs]

Da Bull.. you know I got ya back.. and agree with you...

[asymmetrical1]

Xanax time...I'm getting pissed now!!!!!!!!!! brb

[Jack87]

Sorry Ron,

As you can tell I'm against post whoring too...

But not sure how you could really change things to correct it...

(As I slip in yet another post whore attempt)

[bigol'legs]

[bornbad71]

Thanks for the support,and I agree.I post in many other forums only when I feel I have the experience to help out.I come to the lounge to chat with some really great people here...as far as titles go,I could care less,I'll still go to other forums and help out the best I can,but keep my mouth closed on subjects I'm not experienced.I will in no way put anyone in danger just to make a post.Just mt .02....I enjoy the learning experience here at AR,I'll still be here learning,just more silent!!!!!

I couldn't have said it better myself......that is how I feel also....except if I'm in the lounge and want to post with my bros then I will.......post count doesn't mean much to me.......I can read a post someone has posted and know if I want to use that info or not....that why in most forums when I post I write "this is what works for me"........people are different and what works for me might NOT work for another member.......and vica versa.

It's sad to see that some members worry so much about how many post u make...regardless of where it's at......one think I see is there is flaming in some other forums.......but rarely do u see that in the lounge.......guess it is because in the lounge is where one can lay back and have fun......why do people have problems so much with the lounge????????.......it has it's place on this board just like the other forums do.......regardless of what Jason and the mods/vets come up with.....I will back their decision 100%.

I'll back thier decision 100 %,but I will post when and where I feel necessary,this is an educational board and I've learned plenty,shame the lounge has taken all the brunt,but I look at the other side of the coin and see thier view.I say we dump all the other threads that have been long take aka Danielle thread and so many others,why not go all out.Who cares,I just want to talk with my bros and help when possible...enough said.

I want post whore to answer this.............ok yes I will........bro u know that's how I fill..........I'm gonna post when I want........as long as the rules and regulations are followed then this should not be a HUGE debate.

[markas214]

I think it is fine. The whole reason this got started was because yesterday I posted something about now being a senior member and needing an avatar. Markas then wants to bring up that point. Big whoop if I am a senior member or if da bull is chemically enhanced. It is all in fun and the people that have a problem with member status are going to be those people that don't post that often. I think it is only a problem if people who are regular members on here are giving out bad advice in the question forums. Da bull, even though a post whore, has demonstrated knowledge in several areas such as gh, test, and pct. Now, I don't think it is a big deal about his title but that the advice he gives is good. No, status doesn't determine knowledge and there might be newbies that think that but it is a members responsibility to know good advice from bad. And PTJason, I don't think there are any problems with current members, whatever their status, handing out bad info. My .04.

50% you overestimate your importance in this discussion which I started. I never read the post you are referring to and you absolutely had nothing, I repeat nothing, to do with my starting it. If you believe I was refering to you specifically as opposed to the dozen others who are posting to gain status you are wrong. If you belong in the catagory of members I am critical of that is coincidental.

I done postwhored myself to vet.

TITLE says it all .............but green looks good on ya

[PTbyJason]

i just noticed 100 posts whacked off my name. does that mean lounge points no good than?

That was from 2 threads that I deleted.

And it's starting to happen again. Come on guys. Please quit with the pointless posts just to drive up post count. I have never had a problem with having fun in the lounge or talking about random things, but I would like it to be things that other people will like to read. Oops I posted again. is pointless. Threads and posts like that is why this whole discussion even started. If I find threads that are for the sole purpose of driving up post count I will simply delete them and return your post count back to where it should be. I want you to enjoy yourself here, I am not going to beg or plead to get you to only make relevant posts. You are grown men.

[markas214]

How about arm size points. 20" arm = 1000 pts, 19" = 500, 18" =250, under 16" minus 500. Too bad we can't count years of training experience or hours in the gym.
