Okay, guys and girls. You need 150 posts before you become a junior. And so on, you'll need several thousand to become a god. :o

150 Just to become a Junior :o
Normally the gap is progressively wider so does that mean we need 1500 to get to the next level :-X

05-05-2003, 08:40 PM
Personly , I think the no of posts, and names attributed, are only important to those who cant add any other reasonabe comment to the forum, and alot of LOL, single smilies, along with alot of yeah I know or me too's thrown in.......

This is very true - actually it's interesting to see how many forums ditch the count & titles - especially where the post-button is readily over-abused.....
I know I'm a motor mouth - I don't need to see numbers to remind me of just how much :-X

06-05-2003, 10:25 AM
mmm like cracking 100 posts so early I guess......

I just had a privacy filter installed, so when someone walks past, they think I am mad because they see a black screen.

06-05-2003, 03:42 PM

We had a dept change recently & my new manager doesn't mind what I do, providing I get all of my work done.
On the first day, I had just started surfing & the big boss walked in & my screen was the first thing he saw.
I then decided no surfing until I can cover myself, which I have done now.

06-05-2003, 04:12 PM
Im my own boss currently...... laptop and desktop means I can work and play.... just need to convert the hobby to a tax deduction now......

So Mr Jr Member - how many till you get the next promotion 8)

baby_troupe
06-05-2003, 04:17 PM
Maybe you could start doing Tag Alongs.
Then there would be a way to claim the 4be & nav gear.

06-05-2003, 04:17 PM
I dont know... mr mods havent given any others away as yet.....

baby_troupe
06-05-2003, 04:20 PM
They mentioned earlier that at each 150 there would be a change.
I am still working my way to several (whatever that may be) so I can be a god.
hahahahaha

You guy's will have to tell me where i can get a clock like yours, It must run slower than mine because you have far too much time on your hands.
To get that many posts up so early, must be 30 hours on your clock.

06-05-2003, 05:56 PM
yes...I dont know where they find the time.....:-"

baby_troupe
06-05-2003, 08:59 PM
We need the slow clock for the weekends.

Realistically though, it was a slow day at the office, so it was pretty easy to get a lot of posts.

Maybe if they take a brief look at some of the other forums, they may geta few ideas. ;)

mebey the levels should be closer together at the lower end and get harder as you go up?

It sounds logical, doesn't it??

It doesn't take long to crack 150.
Trust me.. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Quality not quantity of posts is what will make or break this forum. If newbies come here and find nothing but an "incrowd" and lots of meaningless replies then they will move on.........

baby_troupe
19-05-2003, 10:43 AM
As they will also move on if there are no replies at all.
This is also a social thing for people to meet other people with a common interest, not just an information service.
Us people who post replies to help other out are not employees of the forum, but subscribers who are happily helping out other subscribers.
If a little bit of fun is had as well, that could be one of the things that retains the respondees. ;)

wooders
19-05-2003, 02:10 PM
Quality will could for little is there's no quantity....Also loads of quantity generally detracts from quality.....Damned if you do & damned if you don't.
I think the most important thing is that there are a core group that will at least respond to questions & statements & keep the place ticking over....
Also I don't think the forum's been advertised in the mag yet - so when that happens I'd expect more than a few new names appear....

baby_troupe
19-05-2003, 02:16 PM
There were quite a number of posts from fairly new members over the weekend.
My opinion is that there were more last weekend than any other to date, so I guess with the way the forum has been ticking over & getting more new topics, it is starting to create a more interesting site.

OK I have it figured partly,
150 to be Junior Member
300 to be Full Member
1000 to be Senior Member

How many thousand to become God? ;D
