Just wondering why my post count was changed to 6. There are a ton of people here who are like much more of a "postwhore" than me. Ive been here for over a year and just hit 2000, and cphilip has been here for a little less than a year and has over 3000. Just wondering whats up with this? I mean my post average was just like between 5 or 10 posts a day...Whats up with that?

ENDO!

Well that really stinks man, I feel dor you. I was thinking the same thing you have been on here for a long time and you post average was only like6 a day, compared to foo's 20 a day. Most of the stuff you said was good info some was not. I could see taking a few hundred from you. But all of them thats just a little unfair. As for chillip he is a mod and he is supposed to post and mst of his posts are warnings to other people.

Yeah I was signed up before AGD took over, and having 2000 posts after being here for over a year(about 13 months) isnt <B><I>THAT</I></B> many. I don't make a whole bunch of posts that just say stuff like "Yes, I agree" and stuff, there was a few threads that were almost like conversations I guess, but whats the harm in a total of about 2 threads like that????

I was just making a point using cphilip(and Miscue is also a mod, and just has about 1400). But he wasn't always a mod, until about 4 months ago or so(maybe a lil' longer) he was a regular member. I'm not "dissin" Phil, just using an example that there are people who post a lot more than me.

ENDO!

The thing is I don't hardly ever make a post like "Yes, I agree", I make sure I actually put something in it. I hardly ever post on a thread with a poll because I made my point when I voted(unless I wamt to elaborate more), and you can look through my posts, I try to make them at LEAST two sentences. I mean there are people who post whore alot more than me, Ive seen pics from like Thordic that show about 10 threads saying he was the last to reply, and the most Ive had lined up is like 4. It just kinda ticks me off that I was singled out, and there are people who "post whore" regularly. I did post alot yesterday, but I hardly ever post a ton in one day.

ENDO!

Does it matter that much guys? It's only a number...it doesn't really tell much about a person. Let's take footemps for example...so many posts yet most of them I found personally useless and clogging the boards...you respond to everything!! why?!?!???? :) exactly

It's all good. Major's posts usually rule. Foos sig is cool.
It'd be cooler if you only posted your sig once per thread. Then nobody would've ever noticed the post count.

Just remember:
A church can be started based on the writings of Damage.

And Foo is good, not to mention the movies are funny as hell.

Agreed? Hai! Agreed. Now go! And make TK make Z-Grips instead of logos!

I nearly forgot. It's good to see Rob back... he's good too.

LOL!!! Thats good stuff! :D:D

And the post counts isnt really the thing, just the fact that I was singeled out, and I don't post as much as a lot of people do, I had more posts than most other people because Ive been here longer. Its like changing my location or something, its part of my info, and now its false. Why not change everyone else's post count why posts more than twice a day? Its just wrong...

ENDO!

I think the fact you replied to YOURSELF three times in this thread sorta points out what Rob was getting at :)

Another point to add to thordic's is that besides proving Rob's point you could have easily put those 3 posts in a row into one...

I think Thordic's post count should be reset.

hehe

I think everyone's post count should be reset ;)

MajorDamage it would also be nice if you could compress (shorten) the lenght of your signature please :)

I didn't reply to myself 3 times, there were other people saying stuff but they deleted their posts for some reason...

Oh, ok. I don't even remember what they were, but it looks like I'm arguing with myself now lol

I believe MajorDamage has a point arguing his posts should not have reset, but they are back now. When Major did "postwhore", it was normally something humorous to say, not just "yes". It seems now though that your count has been restored, no loss.

Um... when have I ever posted a just "yes" or just "no"? are you acusing me of something i never did? maybe you should read my posts more often...

Foo's count was reset to 0 again....that thing must reset every time he posts under 10 words or something...

I feel bad for foo, I think every few days rob resets it so he can have a few laughs.

FooTemps

Guys, it wasn't reset to zero... I delete my own posts if you haven't noticed yet...

manike

Why waste your time? Some people read old posts

I quit wasting my time... I'm trying to figure out your gun major! there's no field strip screw!!! NO!!! lol, do i need to take off the grip if i need to get to the insides?

I read the old posts, I have nothing better to do, and with out your posts there would be no laughter in the threads.

MajorDamage

Yeah, the two scres by the grip frame. To make it easier you can take the grip of the triggerframe off with a flathead screwdriver(screw is at the bottom of the frame).

ENDO!
