Is it a tradition at WHT for users to get their # of posts up as high as they can?

I don't think so......but it looks like me and defcon got one started :D

I don't see what the big deal is about it. Every day there are a few new "my 100th post", "my 400th post", etc.. I mean, a lot of people have been on WHT for a very long time and have not posted more than 50 posts, and a lot of users that have been here only a month and have posted 500+ posts, so what does it matter how much you have posted? What are you trying to prove? Does it make you a better person or cooler just because you have a lot of posts?

Anyways, I don't have anything against it, just don't understand it I guess..

nah....I think subconciensously we're trying to say that we've got no lives and that we're addicted to WHT.....;)

Hehe akashd :D

Agree with Mr. Amazon. Think quality of the response would probably earn you a better reputation than the quantity though - if that is your's or Defcon's intention

Makes those of us who lurk and rarely post look really bad too :)

I think instead of judging people by how many posts they have (i.e. letting them change their titles after 500 posts), there should be a time limit (i.e. they can change their posts after 3 months of WHT membership).

What do you guys think?
:look:

time limit would be lame,

the competition promotes people working to build a better community.

( you know thats total BS, and WHT addiction is what it is)

Nah I don't think that would be a great idea, puts a halt on the information flow. Perhaps a more tightened control over what people post would be better?

Na, not really (hehe, one more post !!!)

Oh no... :rolleyes:

Dito! ;)

To be honest i don't hold much sway in the number of posts a person has. They either have good advice or they don't. their number of posts won't change that.

all good points thebyp2 quality over quantity, but in the greater scheme of things, I don't think anyone really looks at either # of posts or what they are posting.

Playing safe? :stickout

generally i guess people who post less are either busy or more reserved people and generally don't like chit chat. just my personal understanding not offending anyone.

:look:
