I am posting way way too much. :eek:

In the last 24 hours, I posted nearly 100 times. :Q

I admit, there was something to do with the 3K posts I wanted to see. And it was terribly easy - just reply to the other "champion" (unnamed) posters. :frown:

OMG, I am becoming a NEF! :disgust:

So, beginning now - relief to all - I will REFRAIN from useless posting (or at least make a more serious effort). :cool:

Thanks for putting up with me. Of course, you will still hear from me from time to time when I have something 'more important' to share or where I can be helpful. ;)



EDIT: [/b]DIAMOND member[/b]; oh no - where the 'H' did that come from? Now I am in a class with the 'supreme' Neffers in only 6 months. :Q

Welcome to club nef, may I take your coat?


BTW: I'm the monkey butler. I have a kickass tux.

Something I just thought of...

There are fewer "Diamond Members" than there are "Elite Members." Isn't there something wrong with that?

Actually, now that you have your precious status, you can go get laid. You don't need to worry about your post count anymore.

.

Is that what happened when you became &quot;Elite&quot;, Viper GTS?

The whole point of this post is that I am posting too much. (I feel myself digging in deeper.)

Thanks, chipbgt. I see you are still working on your post count. And yes, Viper's comment was funny. Was I supposed to NOT reply (I'm mostly only human).

apoppin...

Actually, I got my elite at ~1500 posts. I do 90%+ of my posting from work, so I'm too busy to get laid.

Cowchip, now that's funny! You have to crack RC-5 to properly use the cow icon.



<< You wont see me making a post about my wonderful ... status. >>



If you do, I'll be here to remind you. &quot;Nuts in a Whinepress&quot;, now that's a topic to remember.

EDIT: Me too, Viper ;).

Peace and aloha.

apoppin: I would not knock others post counts right now, considering the person you are referring to has had half the amount you do in twice the time. That is why I don't say things to others about theirs, because I don't want to hear about mine.... ;)

Yes, Boberfet, way too many and out of my 'usual' character. Consider it a horribly failed experiment. I achieved my goal and I am ashamed.

GirlFriday, I am not sure where you see me knocking other's post counts.

But that proves a point anyway, if I post a lot of useless drivel, it's pretty hard to remember it.

Hence came the New Realization and Resolution: To Post Less and when it is more meaningful (like I did 6 months ago when I first joined). Well bad habits de hard, and it will take some serious effort. Just remind me when I slip up (starting tomorrow - I am on a roll right now, downhill).

Bored . . . what slow night on the forums?
Thanks, chipbgt. I see you are still working on your post count.

apoppin, I was referring to the above posts..... Just so you know what I was talking about. Almost all of us have moments of nefdom, I have even seen the Elite Members do it sometimes. My only point is if you are going to do it, don't point fingers at others who are acting the same way. :)

And does anyone else see how small the reply text is now? Wow, I can barely see what I am typing........

Thanks, GirlFriday for pointing that out. However, I didn't specifically name anyone (I was replying to Chip as we were kidding back and forth as I desperately worked to get my goal).

That IS the whole purpose of my thread and part of the New Realization . . . I am now working on my 'daily average' - to LOWER it.

Thanks, Paulson (doubly).

BTW, the reply text is just as large as before. No changes for me.

<< You deserve your diamond membership . . . >>

.

Please stop rubbing it in. :eek: :(



Thanks for the consolation, Mday. However, if I kept up my peak rate of 100 posts per 24 hours, I would have 6,000 post this time next month. aaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAGGGGH

And EVERYBODY would hate me (more). See what 1 day of supreme neffing did?

I plan on staying a senior member as long as possible. This &quot;golden&quot; status does not appeal to me. It's kinda queer if you ask me. Queer, as in &quot;strange&quot;.

I am a complete and utter nef. The only difference, is nobody cares about me on this board :)

As to why I dont have a bizillion posts, Im unmotivated in neffing as I am in everthing else. Once I find my motivation, Paulson will be but a pleasant dream (No offense Paulson bud ;))

Well, Swag1138[/b], you only average about 2 posts per day. They can be missed unless they are unusually profound or incredibly stupid.

The solution to your &quot;problem&quot; is a simple one: post more. If you really want to be noticed, just start offending everybody (short of being banned). You'll get plenty of attention, guaranteed. And if you want to be PM'd start sending private messages (ask questions, you're bound to get some answers).

Most importantly, 'subscribe' to threads you are interested in. If you just wander off you may never know someone responded to your post.
