Thanks guys

.

I believe about a thousand my posts were devoted to PBEM set-up, and additional few hundred later in multiplayer communities.

Then, some posts about Civ 3 and other games, and massive spam in the staff room

.

Do posts in the staff room count towards Post Count?

Does ming have a spam thread there he posts in to bump up his status?

1287 posts by me in CtP-Multiplayer forum, w00t

.

BTW, while most posters usually become better posters as they spend more time on the forums, I believe that the thing I posted 16 days after registering here (that post took me to Chieftain) was the single best thing I've posted thus far.

**spartak** · January 18, 2003, 13:41

Which was?

**Solver** · January 18, 2003, 13:44

My original proposal to make a ratings system.

**spartak** · January 18, 2003, 13:47

Didn't we already have one at the time?

**Solver** · January 18, 2003, 13:50

No.

**spartak** · January 18, 2003, 13:52

Sorry, have I got misalinged here? We had kings, settlers, princes and warlords and things when you registered, right? I was certainly lurking at the time and vaguely recall them.

**Solver** · January 18, 2003, 13:53

We had the titles, yeah, for a long time.

**spartak** · January 18, 2003, 13:59

So what do you mean about a rating system?

**Solver** · January 18, 2003, 14:05

My best post... originally proposing that PBEM games be registered and the players have a ladder, getting points assigned according to their performance.

It took more than a month's worth of various debates till the system was enacted.

**spartak** · January 18, 2003, 14:18

Ah, well that makes a lot of sense.

Titles and registration dates are interesting, but oftentimes it's the content of a forum contributor's post that will leave a lasting impact on my impression of the contributor.

And, no, one doesn't necessarily have to write thesis-style posts to draw my interest. If anything, that'll chase me away.

I don't care about titles. I've been around here for more than 3 years, and I'm still a king. I try to post only when I have something meaningful to say.

Ok, so I spammed a few times in the past, but I did not make this a way of life

Titles own.
Prince is best
