Well, I just took a count of all the members we've had, and even though we're approaching one thousand, I count only 40 members as regular posters.
What do I define as a 'regular' poster? Simple: a poster that has at least 300 total posts, or for the newer members, is getting close to that number (not yet exactly, but pretty soon) like Jackel, and Captain Jack Sparrow.
I did NOT count those members that were banned... sooo...
only like 2.5% of our total population are regulars.
man, I wish some of the people would actually post, they would like it here.
Right now, I have no clue why people join, only to not post. It makes no sense whatsoever!
I know, it doesn't make since at all.
That annoys me. I have done that at a few sites, sadly. I joined only to realize that it wasnt my type of forum with my type of people. So i moved out, deleteing my account of course.
It annoys me too, people just join, and never return, why do they even bother?
Maybe Jack could clean out the ones that are never used...at least half of the users have no posts whatsoever.
If he ever gets back online soon...
true...does anybody know the specifics of what happened to his computer, or how long it will take?
also, DPM, I have over 300 now, I'm clear...yes, this is Jackal, for th people who didn't know of my name change.
This is something you get on every forum anywhere. Less then half of the members actually stay and post on a regular basis so it is not a big deal.
i'm here more than usual...i'm more of a watcher of sorts...like to keep my eye on what's happenin with you young hipsters and whippersnappers...and i occasionally go on a posting rampage.
Thats cool I guess. And yeah, if you PM somebody, their original name will showup in the box of who you're sending it to, so i always know who you are ::)
and just how old are you PhanotomPig? :P
i don't know how old this phanotom is but i'm in the weary years where i can't remember what i ate two days ago...(mwa,ha,ha,ha, the ambiguity is wicked since i bet a bunch of you don't know what you ate that day)
ha!

DUDE, you told me yourself, you're like 15!
yeah, you can tell he's young by the way he is trying to sound old. Old people type the same way we do, just like the british members type the same as we do.(even though they may use different expressions and such.)typing has no accent.
Well, sometimes it does, because people will often try to use 1337 speak to sound cool... case in point...

(warning, ther'e s BLOOD, not that that would matter for all the Naruto fans here...)
But people fail drastically because their slang is the subject of CONSTANT redicule.
That is somewhat incorrect. You can pick up certain tones by the way people write, and everyone has a different writing style. I'm sure that my high school English teachers would be able to tell who I really am if they ever do come on here (which I highly doubt they would).
I've always wondered, what does Haxxor mean? I haven't heard it until a few months ago, even though I've known leet speak for a while. Been too embarrased to ask on runescape and such, actually I just don't want to put up with all the idiots who would pepper me with chatspeak forever afterwards.
It's a stupid spelling for 'hacker'. Usually what they'll do with 'ck' spelling or sounds will replace it with 'xx', and with 'er' sounds and spellings, replace with '0r'. But it's a cheap and insincere point. Trying to be who you aren't...
If you play Stickarena, like i do all the time, you learn to despise the title: "Hacker"
so it means they are gonna hack you? or you are a hacker? because if they say you noob I'm gonna haxxor you, it wouldn't make sense for them to hack a low leveled account...whatever. The main point-1337 speak is stupid and whoever thought it up should get some help
