"How long did it take you?"
Posted by Seabisquit on 06-01-06 at 05:18 PM
LAST EDITED ON 06-01-06 AT 05:53 PM (EST)How long did it take you to reach 1,000, 5,000, 10,000+ posts? Are we talking about years invested to get there? I'm so curious. Please do tell.
ETA to delete and wish you all a good day.

LAST EDITED ON 06-01-06 AT 05:48 PM (EST)Seabisquit, I don't know if you saw it, but there is a separate 9/11 Forum here:
http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/cgi-bin/dcboard.cgi?az=list&forum=DCForumID21&conf=DCConfID5
As for DAW levels, OT is probably the forum in which to rack up posts the fastest. The people with mega-numbers all post on OT regularly. I started posting during the fall of 2002 and am still crawling toward 10,000, but that's because I post mostly on the spoiler board, which moves a lot slower.

Thank you Brownroach. I'll check it out.p.s. and perhaps you should all ignore my previous p.s.,....maybe a too touchy subject. I think I'll edit it out.
Thanks again.

LAST EDITED ON 06-01-06 AT 05:58 PM (EST)No need to edit it Seabisquit. But I think all of the 9/11 discussions were eventually moved to that forum, and probably any anniversary threads or such will be started there as well.

I started on spoilers too during S7 but I lurked before then for a while...so that is Fall of 2003 and I just got to 6000 at the end of Survivor 12...at the urging of tribey I have my share of OT posts, just not lately

So hard to remember actual dates and I totally lack the ability to search the archives, but since I've been here since the end of S1 I guess it's taken about 5-6 years to get my count to where it is. But there was prolly about a 18 month hiatus in there as well.Always great to have new blood though.
But, the four of us had a great time.

Since TV sucks, I thought I would wonder into OT. I haven't been here in ages and this thread caught my eye.Well, it's been so long since I've posted that I don't even know how many DAWs I have -- I think it's a little over 1000. But as soon as I hit "Post Message" I'll know for sure. Anyway, I registered on Mon 7/9/2001 1:26 PM -- I still have the orginal email from Survivorblows. So it's taken me nearly FIVE years to get where I am. LOL

Posted by mysticwolf on 06-02-06 at 00:09 AM
*shrug* I really dunno. I guess I've been here for what -- a little over a year? I usually forget to even notice what my DAW level is. Think I'm somewhere around 3000-something at the moment, but I'd have to look to know. All I can tell you is that becomming a mini-mod for SO shot my numbers up far faster than would otherwise have happened - particularly in the early going.
Right now, I'm not that good at banter, and really don't know many well enough to banter with. (That can also increase post counts.) Maybe, that will change after the Niagara meet. But, it's not something I think much about.

All things happen in their own time. I enjoy my time here, particularly in OT. For me, at least, it's not a 5K race, it's an ultra-marathon - if I'm lucky.

Hello, hello!I've been here since November 2004. I just discovered the other day that I'm over 2000 posts. Most of them are on OT, but a great number are on the TAR boards, too.
"RE: How long did it take you?"
Posted by cahaya on 06-02-06 at 11:44 AM
About the same here... I started lurking the TAR boards about that time (late '04) and began posting on the TAR boards March '05. It's just over a year since my first OT post (about patriotism), and most of the 3K+ posts are on OT.

I've been around a long time- probably about 4 years and tend to lurk much (much) more than post, hence the relatively low numbers. I love the it here for the fun as well as the snark factor but also appreciate it when people wade into the deep end too. There are thoughtful, intelligent posts from both sides of the political aisle and I usually learn good stuff too!I am always impressed with the quality of posts, information and silliness. They say laughing helps keep us healthy, so I come here for my dose of fun. Thank DOG for you people!
And I love all the crossthreading references. You people are sick! Buttballs, worms in your asses and more! LOL LOL No wonder I keep coming back to read more!
I really don't mean to suck up, but I truly lvoe it here.
This is such a haven in the world of internet crap. I would post more but often others have said it better, funnier, snarkier, and most always succincter! (<-- is that a word?)
So my DAW numbers are low, but when I post, it's often a novel.
Maybe I should break up my posts into multiple sections so as to bump that DAW level up faster? Hmmmmmmmm an idea perhaps...
That or just post about pooting, poutine or hairy toes! LOL
All my suckupage is directed to OT peeps. Not those skeery people in the SO forums.

Just here to whine about the fact that no one noticed my invisible comments (or wanted to respond to them) above but then I know it's really my own fault. Invisible text is not something people expect and it is sort of 8th grade. Still, whenever I post on OT I think of IdiotCowboy (?) or maybe it was someone else, who always had some great little comment in invisible text in his post. I always felt like I was discovering some cool Easter Egg! Thus began my love of invisible text.And I will never forget the awesome "Agatha"/AnotherKim prank done with invisible text. That was one of my all time favorites!
I shall endeavor to curb my enthusiasm! Or maybe do it till I get it out of my system. (Hmmm, that approach hasn't really helped me with other things though!)
Nevertheless, thought my little whining post might help pump up my pathetic DAW numbers!

I'm surprised you didn't refer to anyone as a DOORKNOB hiding behind all those D's! Buttball. I've heard better.
I've been here since 02 or 03, Survivor lured me in. I forget which one. I lurked at first and told no one at home of this site. It took a long time for them to figure out how every week I knew who was getting the boot... On Tuesday! They eventually got wise and I lost some credibility, it was fun while it lasted. As you can tell from my posts, I do more reading than posting. I enjoy coming to OT and OTsports it's a great community.
I have become S I C K of Survivor.
Everything about it makes me gag. I've definately overdosed. These days the only reality television I watch are sports. I don't worry about my post count, I remember Tribe saying the same thing when his post count was about 1700 though mine is nowhere near that. When I have something tyo say... I say it.

I had tried a couple of times to post on the dial up but for some reason my connection always timed out before the post would load.
Post count went up a lot when I wandered into OT.

Tough one.I started lurking during Survivor 5 when I was running the office pool and writing email summaries for those in the pool who either didn't watch or missed an episode. I found RTVW while searching for spoiler info for the summaries.
Kept lurking through Survivor 6 and 7 and finally registered during All-Stars, mainly because I had some not-very-important info about Amber. Didn't really discover OT until a bit later and didn't post much because I was so intimidated. But I have obviously become much more comfortable with that. LOL!

What upsets, and amuses, me is that you don't advance in DAW points for multiple posts in one thread.It upsets me cause all of my 3 quality posts were in the same thread and I only got credit for one.
It amuses me because if you look at some of these DAW's and multiply their count by, say 5/thread. That's a lot of yackin.

Yes. Also (and it took me awhile to figure this out) your DAW total in any given thread gets frozen at the time of the last post in that thread. For example, if you go back a few pages to a defunct thread you will see that your DAW total in that thread does not read 1735 but a lower number -- whatever it was at the time of the last post.
In other words, a thread has to keep getting updated in order for your DAW total to get updated.
Except for some reason all of the locked threads in the archive continually get updated to your current total. More Webby magic!

I think I registered around S3. I used to post more on Survivor but I accidently ticked someone off in a spoiler thread (I seem to either do that or just bore people with many of my posts). Since I decided to go spoiler free I avoid all Survivor boards and since classes kept me from watching TAR or Apprentice this season and I can't stand AI I pretty much only read and post on OT now. I tend to go in cycles-post a few for a day or two then lurk for awhile. I may never get past 2000 at this rate.
