I vote for a beveled T.

B ... for Badace

The better solution is how post count is calculated :

+1 post count for
AO / PB / V / FB / MCBB / WCBB / B&S / 5star / etc

-1 post count for
GB / Rivalries / etc

+2 post count for
Nerdery / Academics / Military / History / AN in general / etc

Bump in case this happens as I might have a new goal.

i don't want to be in the same group as all the people that are just barely over 5k

On another board I go to, member titles are based off of things like posts per day, join date, and ban history. The highest title is "mythic" too, besides moderator and staff roles. I was going to suggest it but someone already did.

I'd be off the charts if you did that. I've got 60K+, and maybe two dozen are General board crap or one worders...

Buckley Level

Definitely not diety, but maybe 'deity.' Or perhaps 'mythic.'

Anyone that says that joke is not funny is just not paying attention.

Sorry Lateralus...wasn't paying attention. What's not funny?

Padding

Did someone say padding?

Don't post pad guys. It's not nice.

What about if staff allowed for those that get to a set mark, like 20,000 posts now have access to locked material like subscribers. Maybe not all content, but some of the stuff, as a reward for years of dedication to the site. This could also be associated with number of years as a Texags poster.

Why? They want you to pay for that stuff.

Any idiot can post 300 times a day to get his number up.

Dirk Diggler Level Poster

padding...

There is a poster level above Legend, truthful and sourced and Honor Code follower, it's

It Should be called Sex Panther.

Just a thought that occured to me today. As of right now, "Legend" is the highest poster level attainable, which you hit at 5,000 posts. I'm sure when the site started, they figured it would be a select few who ever reached this mark. However, he we are in 2012, and there are hundreds (if not more) of us with little "L"s under our username.

So it begs the question, should Texags create a status above Legend? I hereby suggest that when someone hits 20,000 posts, they reach "Diety" status.

Thoughts?

Thoughts? Yea, my philosophy prof always used to get mad at us when we used "begs the question" wrong. I never really followed hat he meant.

Lot of folks on here like to cry in their Cheerios and say the "Buckley made the Hit" line isn't funny anymore.

Sorry, I forget y'all can't read my mind.....except for Ragnar.

12,000 sounds better than 20K, to me. after all "12" is a magical number at Texas A&M.

People's comments should be judged by the merit of their expressed, articulated logic and thoughtfulness of thought process, instead of some letter underneath their name.

The number of posts one has is no indicator of their ability to string together two or more strains of thought.

I think there should be an T

For "traditions"

About to hit 30k

I think you're fine, Human.

I knew it, Aggie2006EE, but I'm surprised you let it show.

You actually care about your post count.

You'll make it a "goal."

It only makes sense that the posters who b(*)tch about my post count are the ones who actually care about theirs.

It makes no sense, sir.

Just post your stuff, and however many posts you have, or don't have, are not a reflection upon the value you add to these boards. They are numbers.

I've seen 'em play since way back when
And they've always had the grit.
I've seen 'em lose and I've seen 'em win
But I've never seen 'em quit.

I don't complain about your post count?

Also, I just sent you a PM. Check it.

It was also in jest. I agree with you that it's the quality not quantity.

You know what, I might have gotten you confused with FL_Ag1998. Brother, I apologize, Aggie2006EE.

I will check my PM as soon as I figure out how.

billkemp,

Your posts are usually worth reading when I have time. Are you finally done with the sig?
