View Thread : An interesting statistic
Great Rumbler
With all the posting that went on in the past few days I decided to check up on just HOW MANY posts were made. I found that on the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd of this month we had more posts on those days than any other three days since May of last year. So, that little ruckus the other day did breathe a little life back into the place, even it does turn out to be only momentary. By the way, the three day total was almost 700 posts.
...
Now posts some more, everybody!!
OB1
Yeah well it's back to just me, you, and ABF again.
Great Rumbler
For the most part yes, but others have been showing up a bit more frequently to post which is in fact what we wanted.
A Black Falcon
I'd say a better test would be in the evening... not everyone can get on in midday, after all.
Sacred Jellybean
Well, I'm trying to post a little more often, as I agree that OB1 and GR had a point about us lurkers not posting enough.
Great Rumbler
Heh, I like you avatar SJ. Bloaty the Pizza Pig!!
Dark Jaguar
Okay, there's a problem there. You see you said that was an interesting STATISTIC, and that... was not interesting.
Dark Lord Neo
Lurking is more fun
Sacred Jellybean
Heh, I like you avatar SJ. Bloaty the Pizza Pig!!
Thank you. :D That's one of my favorite episodes.
EdenMaster
I never considerd myself a lurker, in that I posted just about every day, but I am making an effort to post more.
Great Rumbler
and that... was not interesting.
Only if you're in a coma!!
Geno
Durr, what is it, Stwong Baaaaaaaaad?
Dark Jaguar
Alms for the pudgy! Alms for the pudgy!

You aren't going to pretend to be homsar from now on are you?
lazyfatbum
What the shit.
Did I miss something?
Great Rumbler
Only the greatest explosion of previously-held-in-check tension that the internet has ever seen! Riot in the streets!! Blitzkrieg from the air!! Godzilla!! Nuclear missles!! Viral outbreaks!! Mass suicides!! Looting and pillaging!! HARSH WORDS!!! It was like WWII all over again, except without the Jews.
Great Rumbler
At least I don't think anyone here is a Jew...
deanna
We will find out in your religion thread...maybe.
Great Rumbler
Hard to say what exactly we'll find out in the religion thread. :)
deanna
Well, I made a religion thread once at PSX2C, and most all of them were atheists...
Great Rumbler
I think we only have two athiests here. We've got a quite a few religions and religious groups represented here so things can get pretty heated at times, as they have many times before, when the topic is religion. Nothing like a healthy, heated debate to get things going. :)
As long as things stay in that thread we should be alright...*Controversy!!*

You aren't going to pretend to be homsar from now on are you?
Only when I can't come up with a better response to a thread to which I want to respond. Which will be often.
Legitimate business!
lazyfatbum
Fuck. The world gets turned upside down and I miss it.
Someone tell me what happened.
A Black Falcon
You could read some of the threads from those couple of days... though there are a bunch of them... but explaining would take a while, probably.
Fittisize
It was all OB1's fault.
A Black Falcon
Well, if you want to simplify it to just a couple of words, that's correct.
deanna
Thats gonna get you into trouble ^ (what Fittisize or w/e said)
A Black Falcon
True, though (though in this case it was with GR's help). Most people just won't say it because they don't want to provoke him. :)
Anyway, I wouldn't have said it like that. It's not completely accurate (he is largely responsible, but the reactions of others is a factor as well) and just serves to further anger OB1...
deanna
People were already mad (on the inside) at OB1 and GR for posting "..." and ":erm:" as posts, and finally blew up when OB1 made a thread to contain his and GR's emoticon-like drawings. It turned into a war as GR said. You just missed it all lazy...
A Black Falcon
That's more accurate. But it continues with 'then OB1 blew up back at them', 'there was a lot of yelling back and forth', etc, etc... and as GR said we managed more posts than any other 3-day period in the last year. :)
Great Rumbler
Oh please! *does that thing with his wrist*
I shouldn't have to bring up the fact that it was at least partialy due to a certain amount of...unrest...over one single thread, which did no harm to anyone. I really shouldn't.
A Black Falcon
It wasn't just the existance of that thread that caused it and you know it...
OB1
Yes our horrible posts which were created because no one else ever posts and we were bored were just THE SPAWN OF SATAN HIMSELF!!!
deanna
The existence of the thread was the ummm something that broke the camel's back
OB1
More like the back of the grumpy old woman that lives down the street and complains whenever "those crazy ruffians" play their guitars in their garages even though she's half-deaf and sleeps all day inside her little house.

Speaking from experience?

Why do you think I added "at least partially" to that sentence?
OB1
Speaking from experience?
Haha, no. But it was the best example I could think of.
A Black Falcon
Not true... but it's not worth it to argue with you.
OB1
You can't make this sort of thing happen on purpose, folks. :lol:
OB1
Go back and read the last few posts.
Geno
Don't look now! I'm just a friendly reminder! Ahhhhhhhh! I think I won the power bowl!
A Black Falcon
Oh... two posts appeared between when I wrote that and when it was posted. :) I was, obviously, replying to
