Why is it such a big deal to become a lifer?

The term Lifer was recently added and many people do not welcome it. It used to be that once you became Diamond the only other step was Elite if you were chosen.

You have close to the same post per day average as me, and you have a life and I don't?

Moron.

Then I guess you're better than the rest of us. Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

BTW you're still a moron. I don't care if you attend a public school, so did most of the other people here and we can at least spell "their" properly.

We don't need more people dropping the average IQ in this place. Ta-ta!
 
Newsflash to NewCompGeek: You are in Off Topic right now. Don't you feel terrible for having wasted time here like the rest of us?

I officially declare NewCompGeek 0wned 😀!
 
I think you need to get your head outta places where it doesn't belong.

If people truly care about their member status, they need help...

I thought it would be so damn cool to be elite, but guess what, it isn't. It's just like if you were diamond or any other status. Post count, something that used to matter so much to me doesn't mean a thing anymore. It's all just a forum on the internet to learn about computers, try to help out whenever you can, and throw your opinion in at some point along the lines. It's not a popularity contest.
 
I think the reason some people get happy about their post count just comes down to human nature. People, for some reason, like to belong to groups. And this forum is, in a way, a group. Post count is just a way of showing how active a particular person is within that group. It doesn't mean, of course, that those people are respected any more than a person with only 5 posts. People are judged based on the quality of their posts, not the quantity.

Getting excited about reaching certain post count numbers, of course, doesn't really make alot of sense. And neither does getting extra happy about the year "2000" or the new "millenium". It's just a number--that's it. Why do people get so much more excited about the number 2000 than the number 1992? No real reason at all. A long time ago, someone developed the numbering system. And at some point, some people decided to get extra excited about round numbers, marking them as "special". "20th anniversary" is more exciting to most people than "21st anniversary". Why? Absolutely no reason at all. People just like reaching certain (usually round) numbers. I guess it's part of human nature.

It's silly and kinda stupid, but who really cares. If someone wants to get happy about reaching a certain post count, let them. Yes, nobody but that person will really care, but as long as they're happy, who cares?

I think people complained about it...like for the first few, it seems like it's getting better Jr. => Sr. => Gold => Platinum or something like that...

But then I think it was Yakko or someone who said he felt bad being called a lifer
 
It's a big deal to those who aren't lifers. They can point at the lifer and yell, "nanny-nanny boo-boo, your social life is poo-poo!"

😀

Kami, why are you being so impudent and defensive? Only guilt trip folks feel that way. You must be feeling low with that title? :/

Maybe you should take it in light spirit, hon'?
