OLD MEMBERS ONLY

Postby BigBallinStalin on Mon May 28, 2012 1:54 am

When you first arrived here, did you post more?


When would you say you nearly ceased posting in OT, in GD, in wherever?




Hypothesis: maybe after so many years, there's only so much that can be said. (granted, there's other factors like "better shit to do.")

and exactly what makes an old poster?

I post more now than I did when I first joined...

heading towards 6 yrs, guess that qualifies me as old

for my first few months i only posted in the foundry. i had a shitload of map ideas but almost all of them got little support lol. the foundry process was very unorganized back in the day.

i nearly ceased posting when i got banned by dave like woodruff did

there is never enough shit that can be said, lol

If you think you're old, then you're old. And, if others think that you're old, and you think that they think that you're old, then you're old.

I don't think I'm old enough to post in this thread.

I started mostly just lurking/reading. Then I posted and became a mod because that one post was that amazing. I'll never tell you what was in that post, for the auto-mod power is too great.

I have spurts of posting activity, although I haven't come close to my frequency at the peak of my early posting. My posting frequency slowly wound down after The Great Bannings, but kicks up every now and then.

Well....so far, I win!

Used to post here a lot more, but back then it wasn't 90% arguing over crap :lol: Wicked drove me away from the public forums initially....after that, it has just changed......

Still post 95% in our private forum.

In fairness, pimpdave and I got each other banned. He can't take all the blame for that one...I well deserved it (unlike the last two, which were essentially bullshit).

It depends what else I'm doing.
The last year or so I've been too busy.
I just joined my first game in a year or so too.

I can't help but wonder...why? What exactly brought you to this site if it wasn't "playing Risk"?

Sometimes, I wake up in the morning, and I ask, "What's the point? Is this more about my development or more about convincing people of the 'righteous path'? Do I want a small select group of people thinking about issues or what? Why even bother posting here?"

Rest assured, I put a lamp in my closet--just in case.
