    In My Head

    It's not about quantity, rather it's about quality.... Something that has always been an issue with the community here.. But hey why not?! Looks Like I should try and catch up with you guys... Let's see you guys have been here roughly 6 months and if you total all your posts you come out with a average per person (the 3 you mentioned) of roughly 3,700 posts for 6 months time... So if I have been here for a total of roughly 18 months and I posted as much a you guys did, that should put my posts count somewhere right around 11,000 posts...Ouch! I'm short about 8,800 posts!

    Looks like I need to get started on the SPAM!!!!! ;)

    Here we go! - http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?p=859052#post859052

    I joined late Sept, and most of the posts for that month till about mid-October are horrible. After that I started thinking about what I post [for the most part]

    Well i would say derek spams the least out of us 3 (me, da shiz and derek) and i spam abit (alot but if you look at my posts i been posting less than my 21.something per day thing) and i would say da shiz spams most out of us 3. Derek might have most but post good stuff. Even look at the highest poster DG with over 7,000 posts with 30 post per day last time i checked and i think i never seen him spam.

    Lots of shiz's spam came from the Eliminate thread, which is acceptable in my book. All 3 of you post a lot, but I think you all contribute enough good stuff that's its ok. I only post a lot lately because I don't have a job, and have nothing better to do all day. Except maybe look for a job, but anyway.

    Even with all the new members, the spammers, the "kids"... I always laugh when people talk about "leaving" TA or how much it sucks now and they hate it. True there might be a lot more crap to sift through than there used to be, but you can still find decent conversations and good people. And all the ones that "leave" always come back anyway.

    I mainly joined TA because of the great community that was here at the time(late '08). That and I'm a game dev/Illustrator that's looking for others to work on projects with. Although I didn't start posting until a few months after joining. :eek:

    Have I really been spamming as of late?

    EDIT: Not counting the lounge or when I write game recommendations for people since I limit myself to "hook champ" :p

    EDIT2: I just realized most of my posts as of late are in the Lounge or Mass Game Recommendation thread...

    Even Big Albie as of late. Which I think is a good thing for this community. Plus I forgot how hilarious he is.

    Wow, I just looked and my first 7 posts were all about Rogue Touch. I picked a good game to decide to register for. :D My most offensive n00bism was spelling Ipod rather than iPod. I think I'll edit that now, my OCD can't help it. The one thing that hasn't changed about my posts though is the unnecessary length. :)
