So let me get this straight,  If you have a low post count ,whatever you say is never believed and the BS flag goes up. If you reply "IN" on every post you see and rack up a high post count some how you are more believeble in what you post. Is the about right?

Ah, this again...join date and post count sort of establish a relative credibility which is usually based more on the persons being known to the group than an unknown with a 2010 join date and 10 posts...

Sadly, that started a few years ago.

Back in the olden days, post quality carried respect, not this "IN!" crap.

What is considered a high post count? I wonder how many of the people with the high counts are doing it at work?

There is a lot of precedent to this theory that those with recent join dates and low post counts are full of shit. If you've seen some of the threads that pop up you will know whàt I mean haha.

That would be correct sir.
Personally I don't believe GD should count toward post count. Or +1. Or IBTL. Or tagged.

Just a note for those that don't know. On the top and bottom of every page there is a "button" if you will that says "SUBSCRIBE". You can hit that and any time you want to read what has been written about a thread, simply hit the "Subscriptions" button. It's located directly below the ARMORY subforum.

Just keep saying stuff like "In on x" and "ost" and you'll get there eventually.  Those things add credibility man!

I've always thought high post count meant no life / no job in most cases. That's how it works on the rest of the internet.

What kills me is someone with a recent join date (less than a year or two old) and already pushing the 10K envelope on posts.  I 'm married and have a full time job and still feel like I spend too much time on here.  Hell, I was shocked when I hit 1K.





Maybe I lurk too much or just not opinionated enough.

Balls to the wall, obvious-troll-is-obvious trolling yeah (with the recent join date). Now if you were a more clever type of troll and took the time to build the post count before jumping straight to the outrageous, inflammatory stuff, then maybe no. But thank god we don't get too many of those....


P.S. low post count, long join date is kind of common (and not a bad thing usually). Think there has been a sleeper troll account to revive itself occassionally tho.

Wow up until those last posts it was all members.

Since you're a newbie here you might not have noticed that people will come here, barely establish themselves ... and start slinging bull shit like they slopped stalls at the rodeo all their lives!

Those with more posts tend to have an on-line personality that they're not willing to toss out to make someone believe that their married to some cute wife, drive a Porsche 911, and live in a castle.

Wait.
