Irritation

[Tomcat]

I'm a member of about a dozen sites for various purposes. I find it extremely irritating when other members post a response with no other purpose than boosting their post count. Seems to me, that if you don't have anything to contribute other than "Hi, I'm -----" it's better to lurk IMHO.

Now TC calm down. If you want to be on the hospitality committee you're welcome also. That's what makes it a family friendly forum.

Sorry, I didn't know I was supposed to be "friendly".

Another site I used to moderate had a guy with about 8000 posts- about 7980 of them were one word posts- "cool!" "neat!" "wow!" "outstanding!",
His signature said something like "The most knowledgeable & prolific user on the site"- used to drive me crazy.

No offense, but I'm glad someone else feels my PAIN.

Absolutely unbelievable...

But then again I have over 11,000 posts, mostly one liners on the political section over at the unofficial allis forum...

Believe it or not, i never paid any attention to my post count. Will look at it in a moment. Ok, i did a while back -what is it three before i could post a photo?

 

[North Idaho Wolfman]

Ummm I've got a very high post count...
But I don't think I'm trying to run up my #'s, It just happens that I post a lot, to a lot of people, hopefully help a few out along the way.

By replying to your post which raised your post count, I've increased my post count by one post!

I hear what you're saying. One forum I frequent has a member that 99.9% of the time post remarks that have no substance or relevance to the thread. Below is his profile,
