Re: How often do you post? Posts per day poll

almost 5 posts a day, phew, I am a freaking loudmouth. Which exactly reflects my personality in real life. One day a coworker comes by to find 6 others circled around my cube as I'm telling another story and he says, "Laurence holding court again?". :P Everyone jokes I have no trouble talking. Member since 2004 I believe.

Gosh I'm only at 2.5 a day and I'll bet half of them are jokes. I've learned a lot more than I've posted, no way to put an average count on that

Re: How often do you post? Posts per day poll

Gosh, I thought I posted a lot, but I'm only at 1.4. But that's since April of 2004, so I guess it's harder to sustain those high counts for years on end.

Why the strange catagories, Dex? Either I'm still half asleep or there is a small x.4 - x.5 in each of them...

Re: How often do you post? Posts per day poll

Only 0.259/day. I'm considered in a loud mouth in real life.

I think I don't post as much because:

1. Posting takes more time and requires me to be more thoughtful
2. Keeping up with the posts takes time
3. Don't always have stuff to add

Interestingly, number 3 doesn't stop me in real life but in does slow me down in the anonymous online world!

The reverse has happened with me. The dealings I've had here have helped me become much more patient in face-to-face discussions and a much better debater. I don't see just one or two sides to every issue any more.

Yes, that's something I haven't figured out. For example, a few weeks ago I was a user name that was something like "T******" (that is, asterisks in the name). I know that if I'd seen that name before I would have noticed it. So here's a user I'd never noticed, and he/she already had hundreds of posts.

Perhaps he changed his name recently??

Yes, the board software apparently allows users like Ron'Da to change their names without keeping track of their old names.

Kinda like TH This space for rent El Guapo CFB.

About 425 views of this post - but only 63 entered the poll - I know some of the views are from those that entered the poll.

Why don't those others enter?

Re: How often do you post? Posts per day poll

Im at 0.34/day. Im way to busy reading what everyone else has to say. Im young and still learning from those who have gone before me.

I feel like I know lots of people on here- and they have never even noticed I was around. For example- Im pretty sure Trombone Al and I would be great friends and that Dex would make me laugh till milk came out of my nose without even trying.
