Sr. Members

[bulio]

many people that I see (excluding big boab and the like)

Excluding people that are regulars there and do good. I consider bigboab the leader of the lounge, and some other poeple there deserve seniority too. In general there are spammers there, but not everyone there is a spammer.

my sig is not over that limit though

Well... I quote from the link I just posted...

Does this mean I'm a post whore?

Sr.Member status would be given out to member who are deemed "helpful". People in the lounge can be deemed helpful too, If they show it where it counts. Becoming sr. should be a privelige not a right, it is too easy to get 1,000 posts, but it is not so easy to make most of them count helpfully.

btw, I was juged once because "I have too little posts in a year" Why should I have 2,000 posts if their all one-worders or they make no sense?

You've missed my point here bulio.

The senior member status doesn't count for much anymore, I think we can both agree. That means we have to find a better way to determine who is a "senior" member.

What better way than by using our own judgement? I know who's posts I pay attention to with regards to certain things and who is an idiot. When I look to see who has posted in a thread the FIRST thing I look at is their name, that is my indicator to what quality of poster they are.

And there are some damn fine guys and gals on this board.

Why attack the lounge so?

You don't post there as much as some and so I think you're really an outsider looking in. It's easy to criticize that way, but what we do as a group entertains and amuses us. Just like other world's discussions are entertaining for themselves.

I, on the other hand, should be shot at dawn.

btw Samurai you posted these stats recently about me and I hope you&#39;ll notice that my lounge participation has gone down by 1%.

I agree with you, but can you help me come up with some other ways of determining what would make up sr.member status regardless of where you frequent in posting?

You have now been promoted from Spam Whore to Spam Hoe

Yup, get rid of all titles. Like I said let&#39;s make our own decisions on who is a "good" poster. After all it is very subjective, no-one is going to agree with your own views on this.


@Samurai: This time next week I&#39;ll be a Spam Pimp, just you watch.

edit:bulio: Your sig is rather large...
