New how-to needed...FAQ?

So the question is "how to be a post whore?"

Since the new board was activated, I've been noticing peoples' post totals, and there are people that have become members long after me that have TONS of posts (ex.  I joined in April 2004, and Pandy joined in September 2004). 

I've been on this board for nearly two years now, but not many people know me.  I guess that's ok, but maybe I want fame and popularity too...so in the FAQ page, we need "How to be a Post Whore."  If I learn, maybe I too can become a moderator!   :flipoff: :thumb:

Something is wrong with my twin...all of a sudden it's V shaped!  Wait, no, now it's a triple!  ...and I IZ NOT a postwhore!

All you need is love of PURPLE! :flipoff: :icon_lol:

P.S. And why is everyone always picking on ME!? I am NOT the biggest postwhore, contrary to popular (and incorrect :flipoff:) belief!! :icon_razz: O0 :icon_mrgreen:

Hey!

Seriously, all you need to do is be helpful, freindly and fast with an answer.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

I think you missed a few words...

:laugh:

Damn...  Pandy said the same thing I did... 

I guess I'm just PWing at this point.

I'm sorry I'm not friendly sometimes.  What can I say...

RVertigo

I'm sure when you post 20 times a day, it's hard to be nice every time. :laugh:

makenzie71

...well I actually think I'm typically "nice".  A little condescending from time to time but not nearly everytime.  I much prefer to be pleasent...except with morons...

When am I not nice?

...I already run multiple forums, bailing on most...lol.  Mod/staff work = not typically fun.

I may be a postwhore....  The last board I was on I was a mod and I posted on average about 1k a month.  So im doing pretty good on here..

I'll see what I can do abouut writing up an answer for the GStwin FAQ:

http://gstwin.variders.com

Of course, since I have limited experience with post-whoring, I'll have to have someone else - like Pandy, Makenzie, RVertigo, or any of THOSE OTHER postwhores do the actual write-up.

Because like I said, I don't really know much about it.  8)
Richard died in a motorcycle accident that was at no fault of his own.  We lost a good friend and good member of this board.  Though Rich may be gone, his legacy will live on here.

Wow  :laugh: just looking at the replies I've gotten on this thread (which I figured would go into the Tard Farm).  Just reading those replies has given me a wealth of knowledge on PWing!

But seriously, I read nearly every post on the board, but don't reply too much, so I thought I start a thread to let people know I'm still here.  BTW, this is the most successful thread I've ever created...how sad is that?  :dunno_white:

Wow. 2 pages of responses and no mention of me being a post whore. That makes me so happy!

But yeah, like RVertigo said, all you need to do is reply to everything you have an inkling of thought about. Hell, reply even if you DON'T have a thought about the subject. That's the mark of a true post whore. However, john may frown upon such behaviour. We don't want to get the board shut down for ANOTHER week. That week was hell.
