Do you lot ever keep track of what I like to call "Landmark Posts". I recall sitting with Shauna during my "Eyes on you" and she was saying how she wasted her 10,000th post on my eyes on you thread.

Do you look at landmark posts as well or just ignore them and move on without recognising them
I understand that this is also my 1,000th post. Happy 1,000th post to me

Approaching the big 40 soon. The Warhammer, you might say.

...I'm a huge nerd.

Either way, actually, no, not at all. Post counts weren't really enabled until I was in the 30's and by then who cares!

I missed my 18k :( I'll hit 20k this year and make note of it!

Just today I reached 555. It was thrilling. I can only sit here and wait until the day I reach 666.

Way way way back when I joined, people were allowed one thread per user to celebrate a post count of their choice. I thought it was amusing.

I don't keep up with my postcounts very often because I simply forget, but I have noticed this...

This (http://home.eyesonff.com/showthread.php/151104-We-Didn-t-Start-the-Forum) was my 10,000th post. It later won Best Post so it worked out.

Who was it that stayed at 9999 for months by going back and deleting old posts every time they made a new one? Or was it just me who noticed that they were doing that? This was a few years ago.

i don't care enough and only note my post count when there are threads like this or I remember that Jinx hit my postcount at the time within a week of her joining

I wouldnt say I keep track but usually I look over around the x980 mark and notice it's coming up.

I got 7777 to look forward to

I wish where my post count is it said 'hello would you like to win the SAVINGS OF A LIFETIME then just step right up and take part all you have to do is put your name in the hat and we give it the spin and randomly pick one out and it COULD BE YOU'

one forum i know of has a group of people who have changed their location so it says things like "you should read my " and then the post count obviously. it is pretty sad and pathetic and makes everyone look stupid and doesnt' work perfectly with the format...


...but you know....it might work for us

hey parker how about we change it to "amount of times this person has had sexual intercourse" instead of "Posts:" because then we'll look like a couple of non-virgins and, dare I say, really cool dudes.

I don't really pay attention. I don't have a huge amount considering the amount of time I've been registered!

You know I never did quite get over having post counts visible after you couldn't see them for like a million years. I was hiatus'ing when that change occurred and then when I showed up and saw them I was shocked! Shocked I say! :monocle:

I've got so many landmarks that I don't even keep track of them anymore.

My 50,000th post will be the last post I ever make on EoFF, and it will be the best post ever made on EoFF.

05-19-2014, 09:22 PM
I don't pay much attention to my post count because it isn't my actual post count. I'm sure I lost at least 5,000 posts to pruning. I passed "10,000" recently, but I'm not sure what post was my "10,000th".

You already posted earlier in this thread. You could have totally checked your post count against that!

Parker is now in the race to get to 50k posts first. the race is on.

I never really paid attention. Of course, part of that was because for most of my time here (from maybe 2002-2012) post counts were disabled from public display. I think I'm nearing on 20,000, which is just ridiculous.

Your activity rate is low; what were you expecting? Did you think people were posting as you and your post count was steadily increasing while you were away? This is not Cookie Clicker, mon.

I don't really keep track of these sort of things, but I remember when I first started to post frequently again, my post count was in the mid two thousands. Now it is approaching eight thousand. It's been about two years and some change since I became a frequent poster. For me, that's a lot of posts.

I'm nearly my first 1,000 and I'm excited. If I miss it, which is likely, I will be sad.

I just realized that I passed 20,000. I have no idea what my 20,000th post was.

Oh well, here's to 20,010.

I'll notice it, plan to do something special and then waste it. Just recently I was thinking of what I would want my 4,000th post to be about only to waste it in the Game of Thrones thread.

Alive-Cat
06-04-2014, 03:44 PM
I have no idea, I could of had the most landmark post ever but didn't notice. I don't know. I'm going to look straight after I post this. :greenie:

You're going to catch him pretty quickly at this rate, Shorty. Your post count for the last seven days is off the charts. Are you just sitting in the staff forum chatting to yourself?

Shorty

I've been leading the Top 5 posters for over two years now. It's lonely up here. :( (and also goes to show how much time I have to waste)

And I you! If you could just stop posting for the next year and a half...

I did a special thing with a special post once. It was a long time ago. Too many posts. They're fleeting; I don't take much care of them before they're given over to the board.

Alive-Cat
06-04-2014, 06:59 PM
My post count is ridiculous given I've been here for 10 years next year. Then again I was a huge fan of usernotes back in the day. And have probably spent a solid 5 years away from EoFF in that time. It was a dark time

I try to give every single post something special; they are all my children, and although I will miss them and am sad they are going out into the Eyes On Final Fantasy Forums Experience world sometimes, they're better for it. I just need to let them go. I know they can make it on their own. Goodbye post #3,206 xxxxxxxx

So it seems the answer is yes. I've just noticed my post count has gone from 1k to about 1.4k in less than a month. Lol activity.

I go on EOFF a lot at work and always use the Simplified 2.0 skin. This being the case I rarely see what anyone's post count is... including my own.

Last I checked I was nearing 4000 but I don't really do anything to celebrate. Maybe I'll get drunk in work when I hit 4K.

Bring paint in, strip, paint '4K' on your chest and run screeching through your workplace.

I am just recently back on the site after a few years, but the last time I was on here I know EoFF didn't keep track of post counts. I didn't find out until last night what mine even was after being a member here for almost 9 years.

I'll take quality posts over quantity of posts anyday. :cool:
