    I guess the supreme irony in the recent preoccupation with spamming/pc is that I'm cranking up mine by questioning the logic of counting Community posts.

    I guestimate that the signal-to-noise ratio is closer to 1:100.

    Then my store wouldn't have nearly as good a profit margin as it does now.

    Posts count here so people will focus some of their energy on improving the site. Sure, the signal to noise ration isn't 1:0 but thems the breaks.

    It's a throwback to days where people used to discuss some gaming site.

    THIS IS A GAMING SITE

    remember?
    Then explain to me why posts in Community counts.

    I swear that the Apolyton Community now rots my brain way more than the OT. I'm starting to tend towards the campaign to abandon PCs* altogether.

    *That is post counts, not personal computers. I'm not that drastically inclined.

    Then politicians would be out of a job.

    It was a tip o the hat to a recently active new prince...a bit of inside irony in a post about +1s. But, I would be the last one to name him.

    Fun things like watching as an active warlord gets kissed by a frog and becomes a prince (you know who you are )


    who the hell are you talking about?

    I'm still waiting. I already quit once so I obviously don't want the job!

    Extra work.
    No benefits. (I'm already a subscriber)
    Can get you banned for a week whenever you get drunk... (although that just tends to happen if you have other Polytubbies over)

    No, I'm actually serious for once. Please, sit down until you recover from the shock.
