Well you can't expect the spam-time continuum to be in complete alignment when the act of measuring the spam renders said measurement invalid.

Add a disclaimer at the top of your list:
Post counts as at __/__/__

This way people know when the data was captured, rather than unrealistically expecting the data to continuously update itself.

It's really depressing to look yourself up and realize that you are tied for 307th. Nut, then again, I don't post in any Democracy threads.

ACK!

[H Tower]

yet you are a member of the civ3 demo game...

I'm talking about if you register a new username account, not change the name of an existing account. If I change my username for the ID #240 I will not lose my posts. (You can find the poster ID# by hovering over the "See profile" link)

People create DLs quite often, and occasionally they prefer to keep the DL - ID #24,543 (HershOstropoler) and no longer use ID #2,279 (Roland). The latter ID has a post count of 5,503 and is now restricted (doesn't appear in the members list), the former has no post count. As the ID has changed and no post count transferred from the old login to the new one, HershOstropoler appears lowly on the members list - i.e. not making the top 100. What DC has done is included Roland as he would have been on the list if it were not for the change.

Make sense?

Good job, DC, again.
Especially since your going to take abuse for any miniscule error or change.

RAH

[spartak]

Shouldn't that be you are or you're Rah?

[Chris 62]

Who cares?

[DrSpike]

If you're (hehe) reduced to pointing out grammatical errors to get your +1's you need to be more inventive.

It was only because Rah was talking about errors.

[DrSpike]

Yeah the cutting irony didn't escape me. I should have made an obvious error in my post to show I understood.

[spartak]

I'm not sure about cutting irony anyway.

[Dis]

hey Darkcloud if you are around. See my above post 2 pages earlier about my previous logins. That would definately move me high on the list. I originally came here in April or May of 1999. This login registered in Feb 2000.

[DarkCloud]

Sorry for the long period between responses

ustedes, por favor aceptan mi apologeta.

Also, long time without seeing you at the Spanish Forum!

Ay! Perdón. Yo estoy muy ocupado con muchos actividades.
Yo espero que yo poderé regresar a la fora de español muy (soon).

DISSIDENT-

Actually I have many more posts than what you have there. I am in a demo game, and fully support civ3 for all it's faults and post and play that game.

Sorry, but I can't give you credit for posts that the forum says you don't have... if I did that- all the hundreds of people who had PCR's would be
banging at my door... If someone has received a PCR, consider not being on the list as part of your official punishment handed out by mark and dan
and if you spam to return to those levels, you'll just receive more punishemnts and fall even farther

And what do you mean by Auxiliary poster

The Aux. Posters are posters who belong on this list; but either changed their name/zeroed their own post count:
Roland, EVC, MichaeltheGreat... Or who just disappeared (Ecthelion) ... who I assume was on the list... but who I could not find because I am assuming that he was banned at the time.

If I give you the post counts of my other screen names I used before this one will you add them in?

I don't know... I might. It depends. If a lot of people start petitioning me, then no. But if you are the only one who has had them; then I will agree.
So... in the meantime... I'll add them. (there can't be more than 10 or so people in the top 120 anyway, who have done that which you have done.)
And lets see if this is the whole list of your old names... Black Bart, Dissident Agressor... were there any others? Just wondering?

BIG CRUNCH-

Must be old, a quick look at your post history show ~450 (including OT) posts since the beginning of December.

I've had more than 60 posts in the past two months though.


DC, can you shed some light on your source?

My source... HTower's early January list. Although I put my updated numbers in since I could easily check it (please don't scream... It's not as if I moved up any positions with the additions)... and I updated #120-110 with recent data.

He's probably just been working on it for a while.

True.

CHRIS 62-

Dark Cloud, do the list with OT count added, the "losers" include many people that only post OT.

Sorry, I can't, this is based on the real data.
And anyways, even if I were to search the OT posts- I wouldn't have real numbers as the OT posters have lost some to deletions... not many since we upgraded to vbboard, but some.

SKANKY-

Add a disclaimer at the top of your list:

I probably should... but as I said... this was taken from several points in time during the spam continuum.

But it was from 6/1/03... just so you know...

Also, I think some people had lost posts restored.

????? What do you mean by this? I am unclear

HTOWER-

if you check my title i'm sure you'll realize how far off that number is now

HTower- how many beeping posts can you get in a month- you posted that list about a month ago and now you have 400 more posts!
GACK!
Do you have an Area 25 up your sleeve?
The last poster who did something like that was Provost- and he had about 2000 or so in 3 months!
