The Importance...

<div class="IPBDescription">... of 1000th post.</div> Now, lets talk about the importance of the 1000th post,
i was quite surprised that more than the half of the community (10000 people) has not more then 5 posts!
I kept looking at the list and noticed that ~5500 have not more than 1, and ~1800 have exactly 0 posts, from which 1/2 is awaiting authorisation.

Now i want to thank all of you nice posters for creating this great community, i <span style='color:#CC0000'><3</span> you all.

I know that the post count does not mean the person is usefull, but it means that the person is active and *doing* something, and even if it's just fooling around, we need such people too <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->.

BTW 1000th post.

    You can't be around here for a whole thousand posts and not know that making a thread about your post count, 9 times out of 10 gets it reset.

    Ive racked up about 5000 myself, but I was "punished" and it was reset...apparently some people take pride in spending too much time here <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Ya, but you spammed like the dickens, even more than I do on a spammy day.

    Most topics I can find a 2-5 word response by you.

    [edit] Oh, and I am really important <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Please back to topic ( <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> ),
    i noticed the same effect in every community im active, half of them are not active at all.
    But why do they register then...

    p.s.
    I'm not a spammer, it is just really difficult for me to express myself in english.

    Thats kinda mean ya know...

    OH, and i do try to stick to community's for as long as possible before they turn poo. I was on www.gaiaonline.com for a year and a half until i found this place!! XD God knows why i didnt think of an NS community on the site in the first place =/

    Anyway, off topic again.

    Congrats on your 1000th post. Hopefully (in a week XD) I'll have my own little 1000 to call mine... *Sheds a tear*

    Until then, <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo--> to all you 1kers

    Continuing to post thusly Ripley will most likely send your postcount rapidly backwards...

    Fair warning.

    I don't think postcount reduction threats work if they only have 10.

    "I noticed the same effect in every community im active, half of them are not active at all."

    Be glad.
    No really, these people found out the had to register and didn't bother to ever come back again, which makes me somewhat suspicious of what they were going to post in the first place.

    Just think of all the OMG NS IS TEH ***!!!1 or CS PWNS U threads in the general discussion forum <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    He could always be given a negative postcount, although I seem to remember some people were BEGGING for one of those.... so do it.

    There's a reason there's a limit now. It used to be really really bad.

    if you want to find where all those people with 1 post are

    /me points at tech help thread.

    yah, your average post ussed to be:
    "I get and error, some thing about my client or something"
    whoever hits it first, posts that they installed NS incorrectly, explains how to install it correctly, and they never even post a thank you

    /me stabs each of them in the face
