There are about twenty post relating to the bogdown. They all lead to the same place. Some people have hit on it but
it is still happening.

This brings up an intersecting subject. Yes I said Intersecting.
As long as I have been on this board, and yes it has been longer than the date under my name, I have never seen anyone use the Chatrooms. Instead they use the board as one. There are down sides to the chatroom, it will rob more bandwidth and the conversations are not memorialized like they are here.

It is entirely possible that the postwhoring is contributing to the bogdown. The Board software isn't in need of a revision due to the amount of people using it now, but I have noticed many boards upgrading. Problem is, it takes time and money.

There should be a real meeting to discuss what to do for a solution. Captain has enough tasks without people making this site a headache. The Post Whoring should stop.(period)

As it was just mentioned, there is no Use in having 5000 posts if all that is contributed is a bunch of SHid. Someone will always have more though.

There's an Idea... Post Drag Racing...

Otherwise, I get alot out of the posts here. Serious things that are important to me as are important to others.

Post Whoring is like shooting someone after they are dead. It's like running over roadkill on purpose. It's like more throttle after the revlimiter has kicked in. It's like trying to make a point after the game is over.

Contribution, unfortunately cannot be accurately measured by a number of posts, but it can be measured by the respect and support that other members give towards the Author.

Posting should never be done without intention,
whether it was to make someone laugh, cheer up, an atta boy! or girl, or to defend, protect, to share'
or the best reason...HELP someone.

I do this out of Respect for the people who Admin, Moderate or just plain post what is real.

I hope others follow suit, and help instead of hinder.

Thanks

I LOVE ANGELINA JOLIE!!
See that post right there deserves the comment "le douche".

See while his post deserved that comment because it was obviously of no value to anyone on this board (you must note that Angelina Jolie or anyone that could tell her you love her, does not frequent this board, and therefore she will not know that you love her, by posting that you lover her, here in this post) this post does not deserve that. I was contributing vital information by pointing out that WWJD is a "douche" or should "douche" to clean up his postwhoring act.

so again.... "le douche!"

without them...

RsN I know what your saying I understand your point, but I seriously doubt that the whores out here are the problem. I see boards with 300 folks online all at once, posting photos and links, and vid's, etc. They run with less chug a luggin than this board... Why? I dunno, but the few dirty dirty whores we have running round this board aren't the issue...

I am willing to bet that it's everyone's fancy, Highspeed, low-draw signature images linking and downloading every damn time a page is loaded... At least no one has said otherwise yet, and the board was a hell of alot faster before everyone started with big sig blocks...

My .02? Loose the damn sig block images....

...and to think I spent all that time trying to learn Photoshop to create my sig. Of course it is just a GIF file that's only 12kb so I don't think it's too big.

sorry, just havin a lil fun . ;) I think the avatars helped quite a bit. There's still some backend something needed because sometimes the front list of threads just paints a line at a time, it's mostly just text with tiny enevelope icons next to it, so it should just pop in to existance. But I'm no Ikonboard specialist, and I feel the captian is doing a great job hunting down the slowness. Thanks cap!

...and what a nice sig it is stkr! You should make it larger though.... yeah... and save it as a bitmap instead, perhaps animate it. hehehehe ;)
