maniac Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 to reach 11,000 posts?? Just happened to notice earlier a couple of members are fast catching geoff for post count. . . . . . So will @Geoff make a late appearance and push it to 11,000, is @localzuk going to be the first there, or will @FN-GM make a break and overtake them both . . . . . I rekon we've about 35 days to find out. (based on localzuk's average of 6.5 posts per day) (I know it's not really a race, it's just a bit of fun!) Mike.
localzuk Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Oh dear. I knew this day would come. I really should post less! Its like an addiction...
dwhyte85 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Congratulations, you might win the race. <3 Only kidding, all your posts are gold - well thought out, balanced and worth reading.
elsiegee40 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) @Geoff must be slowing down! At one time there was no chance of him ever being caught Edited June 7, 2011 by plexer
featured_spectre Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I remember the days when I was lurking, if ever there was a question, Geoff answered...lol...he was like google! lol I think it doesnt matter about post count....it matters about the quality of the post
mac_shinobi Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 how did you get to that page to see how many posts were made by who ?
Steve21 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 how did you get to that page to see how many posts were made by who ? Community, members, sort by posts Steve

maniac Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 @Geoff Ben Do you think if we all mention @Geoff enough we'll summon him back to the forum . . . .
LosOjos Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 It's also interesting to see the post/rep ratio of some users... but then I would say that because I have relatively high rep with a relatively low post count
LosOjos Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Do you think if we all mention @Geoff enough we'll summon him back to the forum . . . . he's had 3 mentions, as long as you were all looking in to a mirror/reflective screen when you did that, I'm pretty sure he'll turn up any second and murder you...
GrumbleDook Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 It's also interesting to see the post/rep ratio of some users... but then I would say that because I have relatively high rep with a relatively low post count Remember that a number of folk were posting high numbers before Rep came in. Rep is also not always a good measurement of signal to noise ... and people's views on what is noise will differ over the site. 2

Ah well, it's still a good indicator of who you can trust around here if you're new. I rarely take any notice of anyone with -rep to be honest (except @Sivadam of course! ) 1

Rep is also not always a good measurement of signal to noise ... and people's views on what is noise will differ over the site. This is true, a lot of thanks gets given for posts that are not helpful as such, just things that make you smile etc. There should be 2 rep systems in operation in my opinion - a 'thanks that was helpful and solved my problem' and a 'that made me laugh/smile or I agree with that' type post. Might make things more complicated than they need to be mind you, but would seperate the people who solve issues/problems from the people that post up amusing/funny or other types of post. There's room for both on the forum and the forum needs both, and if the rep system could destinguish between them then it would mean more in my opinion.

I rarely take any notice of anyone with -rep to be honest (except @Sivadam of course! ) Hmmmmm....................... Now I get mentioned in Forums I don't even bother looking at! Only found it because of my alerts! Would/should one believe my Rep here - or my 'perceived' Rep on SupportNet? Interesting comparison! You guys in schools probably realise the difference anyway but those from LA Support Units etc. probably won't see my contributions to SupportNet! And that is a pity because we can all learn from each other! As far as I am concerned then the more Red I gain here the better - it means I am having the desired effect! Maybe there should be a Negative Rep Race in here - I could win that quite easily! Oh Bugger - somebody gave me some Green again! My reputation is in tatters once again ......... I wonder who I can upset next! Summat is bound to crop up! Edited June 7, 2011 by Sivadam 1
