Subject: Who Doth Post Most? From: Bugsy Date: 25 Sep 00 - 11:36 PM I was just checking back over some of my previous postings when I noticed that they were all numbered. A quick scroll to the bottom of the page revealed that I have made 569 postings to Mudcat in just over 1 year. Just out of curiosity I checked out 'Spaw's tally. 7609 since the day before Christmas eve in 1998! AND STILL CLIMBING! Is this a record? Is 'Spaw the Mudcat Posting Champion?

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: catspaw49 Date: 25 Sep 00 - 11:45 PM No.....Kat is several hundred ahead and started about three weeks later. I, on the other hand, missed an entire month last year in May when I had the blown aorts and then the small bowel resection. I think Meebo may be hitting big on a "post/day" basis. Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Amos Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:00 AM A hyena was bragging about her populous litter. "See!!", she chortled at the resting lioness nearby. "Eight young in a single day! While you have given birth to only ONE! Ha!" "You are quite right," replied the lioness. "But that one is a lion!" Quod erat demonstrarum. A. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Mbo Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:08 AM Georg Telemann is considered the most prolific composer of all time. And everything he wrote was a masterpiece. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Amos Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:24 AM Yes, sir, 'bo. But he didn't spend his vital energies posting to the Modcat, either! He probably drove a Harley, too. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Rich(bodhránai gan ciall) Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:27 AM If we could definitively measure quality content, who wou;d it be? Also, Where do I find a number of posts? Rich |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Mbo Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:31 AM My posts would be much more inspired if I actually WAS using vital energy for Mudcat posting. Unfortunetly, all my energy is being eaten up by insane photography class and Carl the evil Communication Arts teacher. They get all my gas. You folks get the fumes. And Amos, with the torrential rains we were having here today, a Harley would have been the worst thing possible! Besides, I don't think my sister would go for riding on the back of one! |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: catspaw49 Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:35 AM You leave your sister at home. You leave Carl at home. You leave your parents at home. geeziz........... Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Mbo Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:38 AM So you want me to strand my sister and refuse to bring her to school just so I can go joyriding? There's this thing you might have heard of, it's called RESPONSIBILITY. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: catspaw49 Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:42 AM Your turn Amos. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Troll Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:43 AM If you were a REAL good brother, you'd let HER drive the Harley. Am I right Spaw; Amos? Am I right? Huh? Yeah! Ya darn right I am. troll |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Peter T. Date: 26 Sep 00 - 10:36 AM Having once gone out with a professional violinist who happened to be participating in a long concert series in which her orchestra was doing vast amounts of Telemann for some ridiculous reason, I can assure you -- having had to lovingly sit through this experience, including rehearsals -- that Telemann wrote lots of what I can only call Muzak crapola. If I never hear any Telemann ever again, I will count myself blessed. I would rather sit and listen to Mbo play the collected works of ELO on the Hohner harmonica. Truly. yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: radriano Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:00 AM What's more important than how often you post but the quality and content of what you post. For example, what's with the current rash of what's your favorite this and that posts. What's your favorite ice cream? Maybe I'm just being a curmudgeon but you'll notice that you won't find my handle on these threads. Let them die out, for heaven's sake. Radriano |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: wysiwyg Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:05 AM Well, it was a double post to make a correction, Spaw, if you read them you'll see what I added in the second one. It's Be Nice to Susan Day anyhow, din't ya know??? For double posts especially. Be double nice. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Bert Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:14 AM Praise said this twice but both messages somehow got deleted. SO here it is again. RANT ON: Well I have a bone to pick. I got a lot of heat once upon a time for overposting, and ya know what? A whole lotta them "posts" was to type REFRESH on MUSIC THREADS when I was volunteering to help keep them MUSIC THREADS up top and prominent for NEWCOMERRS who wanted MUSIC THREADS and for oldtimers who could help in MUSIC THREADS. And then there were the posts to encourage NEW MEMBERS to get involved and share their thoughts on MUSIC TOPICS. And when the heat began, I don't recall anyone pointing that little fact out. Whatever! I had been working from home with a medical problem during this and it was a good deal-- entertainment and uplifting for me, people to talk to, and a little volunteer effort. And I found a voice. (And Mudcat was generally very patient as I did that.) And then I resumed a full work schedule and lost the home computer and now I don't post nearly as much, and now people want to know (in PM's), where's PRAISE????? Why aren't you posting as much as you were? Is something WRONG????? RANT OFF. Come on. It was just a rant. Don't I get to do that once in a blue blue moon? ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: GUEST,elf/joe clone Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:16 AM Thank you, Bert. I was just getting ready to "fess up". Being a newbie to elfdom, I had deleted the first; put a note in the second that I had done so, then hit what I thought was the edit button. I am very sorry, Praise. It won't happen again and was not meant to happen. Thank you, elf/joeclone |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Mbo Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:29 AM Well, if you think I post too much, come see me in person. I hardly say anything at all and will bore you to tears. That's why I usually go where there are NO people. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: wysiwyg Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:40 AM Huh??? LOL anyhow. Youse guys are too effing much. *G* Now what Spaw said to me and what I said to Spaw is all out of order! Aw, elf clone, you'll get it eventually! Hang in there! ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: kendall Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:22 PM I'm a little surprised to see that I posted only 160 times in a year. Just remember, BREVITY IS THE SOUL OF WIT. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Peg Date: 26 Sep 00 - 12:40 PM Yes, perhaps, but did you know that tube socks are the devil's lingerie? |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: annamill Date: 26 Sep 00 - 02:03 PM Peg, is that why they keep sneakin away from the washer? Damnem anyway! L.A. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Jim the Bart Date: 26 Sep 00 - 02:28 PM Amos, for a moment there your "lion" post almost shut me up. It was quite brilliant - and succinct. Instead, I find myself being only half as brief as I ought to be, which makes me (according to Kendall) a half wit or (according to Dorothy Parker) very provocative (oh, but I am feeling naughty). |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Dulci46 Date: 26 Sep 00 - 08:50 PM Where are you all getting these numbers? Still another thing I don't know!!!

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Mbo Date: 26 Sep 00 - 08:54 PM Dulci, click on your own name as it appears in your post. See where it says "From: Dulci46" and it's a blue clicky as well? Click on your name. You may have to wait a bit, but soon a page will come up with every post you've ever posted to the forum. The last one you posted will be at the top of the list and labelled "1". If you scroll to the bottom, the number by the last post on the thread tells how many you have in all. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Jon Freeman Date: 26 Sep 00 - 09:00 PM Name Started Days Posts Average Jon |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Rick Fielding Date: 26 Sep 00 - 09:24 PM Hey Jon, how many have I posted, and what's my average? My computer's too slow for that kind of thing. Hope I at least made the top twenty. This is kinda fun. Rick |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Jon Freeman Date: 26 Sep 00 - 09:39 PM There you are Rick,
Rick Fielding 05/01/99 631 3907 6.19 Note my figures are only approximate and may not count every post and in most cases I have gone by what has been stated in here. A bit of fun though. Also, I could have reduced my average by including my first couple of posts which were made a couple of months before I started posting regularly. Jon |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: GUEST,statsfreek Date: 26 Sep 00 - 09:47 PM I don't think you'd make the top 20 Rick, but what would be really fun is to break the postings down into categories. Happiest poster. Meanest poster. silliest poster. Most helpful. Most colorful language. Quickest to take offence. Oldest poster. Youngest. Most aliases. Worst speller. (often me) Sexiest poster, etc. Are any Mudcatters doing time? Here's a project for you. |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Bugsy Date: 26 Sep 00 - 09:54 PM Hey guys! Get a grip! Let's not get carried away. This was, after all, just a tongue in cheek, off the cuff posting.
Cheers Bugsy |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: catspaw49 Date: 26 Sep 00 - 10:23 PM Well Bugsy my friend, you KNOW what this joint is like and I'm sure you recall (don't we all) Art's infamous Condom thread!!! Hey Jon....you left out kat!!! She's up there at the top I believe. Its interesting to see mousethief there too. I think a lot of new folks go bats at first and I think ratso, er, uh, mousethief will pretty much be around for a long time. I think the first two months or so that Amos was here he really had the top per diem covered for awhile.
Ah, but do they have the legs to go the distance? Can they stand the test of time? That's the question!! Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: Rick Fielding Date: 26 Sep 00 - 11:10 PM Wow! fifth place. I think when you get some of the other heavy hitters in there I'm gonna drop a notch or six, but in the meantime I have to say: giving up TV was a helluva good idea! No matter HOW mindless Spaw gets, he's more entertaining than Buffy the Vampire Slayer (which Heather is currently watching). Thanks Jon. Oh Statsfreak, you left out the best category....best humourist....and worst. "These two armadillos walk into a bar....." Rick (who refuses to get a life....unless it's absolutely mandatory) |

Subject: RE: BS: Who Doth Post Most? From: katlaughing Date: 27 Sep 00 - 01:07 AM Well as long as you are going to drag me in here, (thanks, Spaw!:-(!), I made my first posting at the end of December 1998, so there are a few more. It would be interesting to do a breakdown of recent times, say, the past 4-5 months. Chalk one more up for me....kat |

From: Amos Date: 27 Sep 00 - 01:17 AM mbo: Your responsibility is to unleash your brilliance upon the world in fiery torrents of creative power, not go dallying around looking after your sister who should be up to her own hijinks by this time! C'mon man!!! The moon is up!!! The river's high!!! Break out the Harley!!! C'moooon!!!!!! A. |
