I want to know who the funk cares about 'post counts' ... Bit sad!

 

I just like the following -

 

1. Saying :welcome: to new people

2. Talking total b0110cks

 

I think that covers it really :)

Same as me. Clearly didn't realise how political this forum is with 'post counts' - is there a competition I'm not aware of as to who posts the most? 😂

I look at the posting rate most days and the OP is usually near the top along with Whacky and Ekona

 

Yeah the op (graham) has over 6.5k posts in less than a year and is worried about post boosting.

 

:lol:

Post count boost.

Why would you bother?

This one takes me to 1995.

 

Don't forget that the Mods have the power to chop your post count if they want to ...

I'm lost as usual :wacko: Why does anyone want a large post count? Are there prizes? :)

 

It's for psychological purposes when flaming ;)

 

Also, it's like the rings of a tree trunk, so the higher the count, the wider your ring is. :lol:
