I have seen forums that also would display the number of Posts per day a member made. I believe it was based upon the total number of Posts divided by the numbers of days since you became a member of the forum.

It'd be nice to see that here. I'd kind like to see what kind of rate Fyron went at to get to that point.

Well, somewhere between 6.09 and 6.43 Posts per day (depending on whether he registered 01 July 2001 or 31 July 2001.

There, now you know.

In comparison, I've posted a measly 1.04 to 1.1 times per day, having registered during the same month.

Ok, I did the math for me and I came up with 4.5 Posts a day for me. Although over the past month I have been averaging over 10 a day in here. But oh well I could care less about poll count. It's just something fun to mess around with.

I hit 4000 Posts on January 11, 2003.

Fyron, I had predicted an Iraqi invasion on 1/11. as the new security adviser, you must have changed history the first day on the job. lol

edit in (lol) : damn you! 7.34 per day average

"P-D, of course post count doesn't matter. Who said it did? "

Well, it results in Posts like this..

That and I doubt this would happen here but I've seen other forums go downhill with all the "posting to raise post count" garbage. Things like never editing, "in before the lock" on threads that were going downhill, mocking newbies, spam threads, -post macros- even.

When I say spam thread, I'm not thinking "cantina" or "thread with no name". I'm thinking "30 pages of people posting the same thing"

P-D, that would indeed be bad.

Hmmm... I wonder how many Posts I have....

What? No I'm not just trying to increase my rank! I am insulted by such accusations!

|zeroadunn crouches in the corner giggling to himself, hehe, soon I will have the highest rank ever achieved by mortal men!

It's listed in itty-bitty print at the bottom of each of your Posts.
