Hi there,

How many posts do you try and average per day? I've been striving for about ten or so as of late, but usually don't get around to posting that much on days I have to work.

uh... I don't try to post just for the hell of it. I post if I have something to say.

Same here. I don't watch my count constantly; if I have something to add or suggest, I post it :).

I just try and read it all. I don't set out to post.
But, sometimes I fingers become possessed and I have to say something.

I never usually aim for a post count per day. I just reply if its an interesting thread. However on average 3-4 seems to be my daily.

I post when I feel like it.

Not sure why some people put such a high value on a post count, not as if your getting paid by the post.:eek:

815 x $2 = $1630 so far... Not bad :D

I don't try to post any amount. However, if I am interested in it I will post. Like this thread for instance :)

I don't AIM for X amount of posts per day. If theres a topic that interests me I speak my word and move along. Weather I post 1 post per day or 40 posts a day, I just take it as it comes. :)

I'll be happy when I reach 500 though. :stickout

Instead of being paid to post, it'd be a good idea for it to work like one of those government subsidy programs where farmers get paid not to grow certain crops, because there's too much of whatever it is around already.

Certain people could be paid not to post. ;)

I've never strived to post a certain amount each day. If I have something to contribute, I post. Mainly, I'm a reader.

I aspire to be like ned patter, that's why I'm posting a lot lately. Unfortunately, school comes first so I end up with maybe only 5 posts a day or so.

never worried too much about the post count. I've just got a big mouth and an opinion on everything, hence I tend to get involved in discussions. :D

:confused: Why would you try to post X amount of times a day?

If I have something useful to add to a thread (not very often, hence me living in the lounge...) I'll reply, if not, well it's no loss.

Personally I don't worry about the post count. It isn't that important and I don't strive to reach a certain number of posts each day.

I come on here several times a day and reply to those topics that interest me.

I've been lurking on WHT for over a year now but I only registered a few months ago. If post counts were a high priority for myself then I would have been posting for over a year as well.

Once you get started, you can't stop. It's an addiction I tell you.

If you have the largest post count of anyone here you get to sleep with Chicken's wife... so it's probably a very good thing he's so far ahead of everyone else. :D
