Why the dislike for low post number
I am sure that I am going to start a riot with this. That is not my reasoning behind this post but I have seen a bunch of threads where those of us get bashed for lack of a better term for not having hundreds of threads would someone please explain why this is.:)

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Well because your not part of their clique.

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
You may be refering to the General thread. It's not that we are bashing people for being new.... Not at all. We were all new here at one timebut this is the internet. ;)
After you have been around a while, and if you have been around a while on other boards, you will see that many many times there are "trolls" that just like to come on boards for no other reason than starting trouble so peole that have been members for years tend to be a little suspicous about new people that start out with their first post or three with a topic that may be started for no other reason than getting people all worked up. Well because your not part of their clique. |

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Thank ya'll for the response. I have senn on a bunsh of threads where it seems to be a problem on here and a.t.. So thank you for the explanation

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
I have seen nothing but kindness twords me and my postings, there has NEVER been any bashing my way.
Well, there was that one time I said I don't like the idea of hunting Elephants, that didn't go over so well. Oh, and that other time I posted a buck on a swing. Some people are up tight and they have boring lives so you can't please them all. |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
You need to BREAK IN NFH. Its taken me yrs....... keep on keeping on. Do what you want and HNI will accept you with open arms. That doesn't mean everyone will accept every thought you have. Sometimes its like a group of guys that hunt the land next to yours. We all have differing opinions.

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Ive been a member for a while now and have been back and forth and dont leave a lot of posts.
If they bash you its because they love you!! :) |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Just because someone has a high post count doesn'tmean they are correct for the given topic.

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Wow everytime I read one of your posts, Im really not liking davidmil. Maybe its because your from New York that you think your GOD. Any ways it sounds like with 17299 posts that your single and don't have a life so I pitty you for that. Im sure after I post this you are going to tear me apart but I dont care

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
What difference does it make if a person has 1 post or a million? Everybody should be accepted the same.
And the comment about cliques...you can't say that there aren't cliques on here. Here's a great example: there are those that frequent the "other" archery forum and like it just fine - then there's the group that do nothing but badmouth the other one. Sad. Post count shouldn't merit respect or the lack thereof. It's the person behind the post that should get it. |

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
David and I aren't exactly "chums".....but someone posting here OBVIOUSLY doesn't know him.
He deserves a little more respect than he's getting (UNDERSTATEMENT).A high post count (I NEVER look at them) doesn't mean someone should be berated, either. Freakin PETTY doesn't even begin to describe this.;) |

X3;) I took half alashing last week for being suspicious of a "first post joker".......it actually felt pretty danggood.[8D] |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Calm down! I'll give respect when its due. But its nice that you stick up for your buddy Dr. Phil. Its obvious I struck a nerve. Thanks again for making me feel like Im in highschool.

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
When you stop acting like you're in HS....the atmosphere will change.;)
The only thing you struck a nerve on....is when you make personal references/statements about people you know nothing about. It's out of bounds. It's disrespectful. That's all. The problem with a low post count is.....it usually means you haven't been around very long. That becomes important......when the people who HAVE been around a while KNOW David was kidding with his "God" reference (well....kinda:D). Maybe its because your from New York that you think your GOD. Any ways it sounds like with 17299 posts that your single and don't have a life so I pitty you for that. Yeah....I'd say he deserves better than that.[:@] Just stick a sock in it, Stab. You're the ONLY one looking like an ass. |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Soooooo what are you doing?

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Can't speak for others although I know where your coming from, but as for myself it's what is written that concerns me. If it's interesting I could care less if the numer is -1.

That is not my reasoning behind this post but I have seen a bunch of threads where those of us get bashed for lack of a better term for not having hundreds of threads would someone please explain why this is.:) Ibelieve some people think since you just started on the forums (low post/thread count) your knowledge/experience might be limited. The problem is, this often is not the case. Post/thread count is NOT RELITIVE to one's knowledge.So a person really needs to be open minded and listen/read more than post/talk when starting out.;):D JMHO |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Also keep in mind that there is a "feeling out" stage of new members. Remember that we have never met you before and this is even less personal since we can't see you or shake your hand.
Just like when you actually meet someone in person there is a feeling out stage. It just takes less time in person than it does typing on the internet. |
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
No hate here. its just a # ;)
|
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
I would have to disagree. When I made my first post after lurking for awhile as a guest I was welcomed without hesitation. It might be the contents rather then the post count that a member supplies that may cause a stir. Either way good luck.

RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Bottom line .... most new guys are ignored, unless they hit someones sacred cow ..... dislike has NOTHING to do with it ...it's a trust thing IMO
|
RE: Why the dislike for low post number
Stabnslab Wi,
I've been here since the beginning, member #76 I beleive and havenever been know to bash ,incite, push buttons etc. Just ask Rob or the guy your arguing with, GMMAT:D. I've also said post count ought to be done away with. Serves no purpose IMO. |
