Re: Parking Lot Post Should Count in the Offseason
Fair points. On the other hand, when you say "not getting credit for it" you're saying that number of posts equals more credit. And the idea is not to equate more posts with better posters. I mean you have "only" 1,200 posts. But anyone who's been here long enough knows that you're as valuable (if not more so) than many members with more posts.
But like I said, I won't be upset if we bring them back. I'd be that much closer to 30,000 posts. Just wait for that thread! ![]()

Re: Parking Lot Post Should Count in the Offseason
Also, even though we're discussing the Parking Lot we're really discussing an overall board management issue. Therefore, I'm moving this to the Playbook forum.

Re: Parking Lot Post Should Count in the Offseason
Why does should post count matter at all?
The rep system is just a way for people to provide feedback on posts. It's not some sort of caste system. People take this stuff way too seriously. Besides, this is a Redskins forum in the end, right? So by that logic maybe we should just get rid of the parking lot altogether. |

Re: Parking Lot Post Should Count in the Offseason
I can name off the top of my head the people around here who I think are the most valuable members of the site. I can also name other very strong contributors. I can also name the people I feel are major detractors.
For example, CrazyCanuck is one of the very most valuable members/mods on this site, in my opinion. He's got about 700 posts, and almost no rep points. That means a hill of beans, he brings some of the most insightful information on here. Then you have guys like JoeRedskin, who have been here forever but don't post that much on a per-day basis, but every single solitary post is well thought-out, insightful, and adds a lot to the site. Then there are those (just a few of them, luckily) who shall remain nameless who post all the damn time and it's just nothing but mindless drivel. I know who everyone is, and everyone else does too. Your reputation on this site is not measured by posts, join date, or rep points. It's measured by the value that you bring to the Warpath. So please get over the post counts, the rep points, all of it. It means nothing. If you want to be rated/validated, just ask and I'll rate you. LadyBrave, you are a good member of this site. You have good football knowledge, express your opinions concisely, you write well, and you bring a unique female view to a lot of the parking lot political discussions. I'm glad you're here. MRedskins, you've been on this site longer than me but you rarely post. When I do see you post, I have a positive impression. Don't worry about the post count.

Well I guess I could name the folks who I think should get the heave-ho to balance things out, but then we'd just end up with a rehashing of past incidences, and nobody wants rehashed Schneed. Nobody. Not even Schneed himself. That's right, my rep points are so high now that I refer to myself in the third person. WOOT, REP POINTS, WHAT?!

Re: Parking Lot Posts Should Count in the Offseason
After thinking on it further, I demand the following:
- That we count words per post. I want to be recognized for being the long-winded blowhard that I am. - That we keep track of the number of times you're unnecessarily evil towards another poster. Leading the site in that category would be like that kid in school who has a black leather jacket, a motorcycle, and a three inch scar stretching down his cheek. - That rep points be assigned based on how awesome each mod's April Fool's joke is. Which would naturally develop into a wicked competition. I'm half serious about the third one!
