    lurkers win the vote

    One thing I notice is those opposed to post counts are posting and those who support post counts are just voting.
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

      What AH? Are you declaring a War on Post Poverty? New programs for the Great Post Society? Are you promising a post in every pot, or a square post deal?

        Posts for all

        I think I'll call it the Posts New Deal.

        We must address the needs of the post impoverished. I'm tired of seeing post lines and people with signs around their neck saying "need posts, willing to do any kind of post."

          Yes, AH is great to lead this charge since he was (as of 5 minutes ago) saying "willing to do any kind of post".

            News editor? bah!

            Just make sure in future you attribute stories properly in your role as Civ 3 page news editor and there won't be any problems.

              Well, anyone willing to present their case is welcome.

              Meanwhile, those posts are useful to keep this thread on the top of the page on this poll has atracted a representative vote.

              That requires only a couple of thousands more votes.

                    At last! An intelligent poster who appreciates what spam can do for his thread.

                      YAAAH!!! SPAM THE THREAD! SPAM THE THREAD! WE SHALL NOT BOW DOWN TO THIS TYRANNY! DESTROY POST COUNTS! WE SHALL SPAM THE THREAD UNTIL OUR DEMANDS ARE MET!

                      Or maybe we should be less violent.


                      We shall spam the thread,
                      we shall spam the thread,
                      we shall spam the thread, someda-a-a-a-ay,
                      o-oh deep in my heart,
                      I do believe,
                      that we shall spam the thread someday!


                      I have a dream! My four little children shall one day live in a forum where members are not judged by the number of their posts but by the quality of their spamming. From every mountainside, let freedom ring!

                      Damn this is fun!

                      But on a more serious note, I don't have any idea what my post count is. I know I am over 500, because I checked it a while ago. After I made a post a while ago, something told me to look at my post count, and it was at exactly 500! I am telepathic! Now don't ask me what that has to do with anything, ramble ramble ramble.

                        Yeah. What's up with that? Secondly, I think Mark G should go back and delete all of the post counts which ever came from the OT forum. Manually. D*mn all of you who racked up enormous PCs by debating the value of Cheez Whiz versus solid cheese...Who the heck is that Mao guy, anyway? 16.38 posts a day for the last two years? That's dedication.

                          Precisely my original point! This post count abolition movement is nothing but a naked attempt by the Ancien Regime to suppress the up and coming middle classes. They sit on their gilded thrones amusing themselves with our daily struggles all the while unloading pompous platitudes like: "Apres moi, Le Deluge!" and "Let them eat cake." Let this be a warning that the teeming masses of the declasse are seething with discontent, and that any attempt by the elite to oppress them further will elicit such a torrent as to sweep them aside! Oh sure, we bourgeiose will try to keep the whole thing under control, but you know what happened the last time! So beware, and above all, don't lose your heads!

                                Well give it a few more months before stopping post counts, I am nearly at deity now

                                AH, not coming to post in the OT? Of course not, that doesn't get you ahead in the post count stakes

                                Solid cheese every time for me

                                And Ming, do stop spamming
