View Full Version : A new Social Ranking in EoFF Society as dictated by an arbritrary number!

So I was going to make a thread about how now that our post counts are displayed, a more distinguished form of cock waving should be implemented whereby we judge each other by how many times we've been quoted or name dropped by searching our own usernames as a keyword here (http://forums.eyesonff.com/search.php?search_type=1) and posting how many results come up, when I came across a particular thread with my name which I had not posted in (http://forums.eyesonff.com/general-chat/137834-gang-wars-final-showdown.html). At first I thought Loony BoB had written some ingenious code whereby it displays the username of the current reader but then I realised that was stupid and I saw that the thread had been made months ago, and I barely remembered what the thread was in relation to.

So two topics:
1) Your EoFF quote/name-drop Index (You may have to go to the last page in the search results because it doesnt display the proper count at the bottom). Multiple username searches allowed, nicknames and real names are not!

Mine is:
Search by thread = 909
Search by post = 1413

2) Has anything concerning you ever happened without you noticing until it was long passed? (forumwise or not)

I feel blackmage_nuke should be mentioned in all of my posts so he can have more in his total.

The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search: the, man

Enlarge your e-peen and bring the database to its knees with hugely ambiguous queries at the same time! I love it.

I got a result so low I'm ashamed to post it. Fuck you guys.

I got a pretty sad result until I realized that my reference to post ratio was better than anyone else in here.

Did you guys just look at your usernames specifically or your real names or both?

I can't figure out how to check mine, but considering I am also called HC alot, i doubt it would be correct,

Uhm, 6200. But that dates back to September 2006, so people must've called me miscellaneous stuff during my first four years.

I just looked for my full username. I did not check real name or username variations (e.g. "Raist"). I am far too lazy to do all of that, especially because the search function still does not tell you exactly how many pages there are upfront (at least not in NeoClassic).

I have no idea how you guys are getting any numbers out of this.

But I did just find out that I had been nominated for the Best Oldbie Ciddie. Who knew?

I was also in the Battle of the Screennames in '05 with my old name IBCrayZ. I never knew that. I did learn that almost everyone like eestlinc more than me.

6. eestlinc (34)
6. IBCrayZ (9)

I also forgot I competed in the Cids Knight competition when I was IBPengwynz.


This was fun. I still haven't figured out the numbers thing though.

Advanced Search - Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums (http://forums.eyesonff.com/search.php)

Then click "search single content type," type in your name, and select show results as Posts

It'll only load the 200 first results, so you might have to load the oldest page to show more results. You can also select Go To Page and guess a page number, might be smart if you suspect there are very many pages, although if you guess too high you'll not get any results at all. There might be an easier way to do it, but I wouldn't know it.

The only time I get my full username mentioned is in an official capacity. This ranking system is rigged. :colbert:

Maybe you should pick a smaller username that nobody ever shortens.

Oh shit, that reminds me: I'm Quin. And I've only once ever actually been Quin.

This is bullshit. Ban blackmage_nuke for corruption.

Although according to that, nobody has mentioned my name or quoted my posts for the past five or so months, so something tells me it's not extremely reliable. D=

Fun fact: Approximately quarter of the posts and threads that mention Psychotic relate to warnings given to him by staff.

5!
3 of which are from you! :kakapo:
One of which was from the Ciddies where myself and Rantz were nominated most likely to get together.

Geez I really should have paid attention to the Ciddies this year.
