Yeah, but how do you start this thread and never return to it.?I think he should get credit for the 41 additional posts his generated!
Yes, the rules say if you have less than 50 posts you are discouraged from welcoming new members.
I do like the one reply that says the replies to the thread I started should count. Even 10% of the replies would help as I now have 2 thread with 5+ pages of replies.
I try to think before I talk, especially writing things, as I do not wish to offend someone, accidentally or on purpose, and generate a flame fest. Usually with a little effort one can write and not offend someone. Of course you run the risk of getting logged off before clicking the Post button! :-(

I have found thinking to be way over rated. I don't understand the logged off thing. I click that box when I have to log in about keeping me logged in. It is rare that I have to log in.I do like the one reply that says the replies to the thread I started should count.

You know, sometimes when I'm pondering what kind of post would have the right quality, I think of running.
Running is not something that comes naturally for me. I'm a sprinter. When I run, I like to run fast, usually in the context of a game.
Just getting out and running isn't something I particularly enjoyed. At least not until I reached an age where the recovery time from playing games got to be too much.
Anyway, it seems like posting is like running. Some guys just like the sprint. There's a game involved. There's a goal that's independent of running; they're trying to get to something.
TPTB here on INGO have tried to catch the long-distance runners. The folks who want to be around for the long haul.
Now, some threads are like sprints. There's so much quality to be posted that those threads just seem to generate quality posts. That's fine, there's nothing wrong with that. Sprinting is fine if it is good sprinting.
Otherwise, 'tis better to run the distance.

So... did you figure it out?I had to read that three times to see if I was missing something.
So... did you figure it out?
(And, having re-read the thread, I think a post is now missing that really kinda makes my post context-less.)
As I recall, there was a post by someone who could not yet PM/buy in the classifieds, that was... let's say... slim. So slim, that it made me think of those long distance runners who are freakishly thin.Maybe I'm having a dense Friday, or maybe I've just been reading too many dense documents this morning, but, well, I'm feeling kind of, well, dense......
