Posting monopolies
Has anybody else noticed that if there aren't many people on the boards, and you're posting, you end up with a lot of posts down the list that were done by you? Just wondering. This happens to me a lot because I get up at 5 am (Michigan, U.S. time) and there's never really much of anyone on the boards then.

Well, if you're the only one on, and post a lot, that should be pretty obvious .

Yeah, okay. It is pretty obvious I guess.
I now feel like an idiot . . . .

I know what you mean, tho, Laurelyn. It happened to me last night, and I wondered if people were looking at the list and thinking, "Man, I wish that guy would shut UP!"

which is exactly why I've been registered since Aug. and still am a Hobbit. However,you've given me renewed sense of determination;I'm going out there and posting up a storm. YYEEEAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *gives loud battle cry as she runs screaming into the abyss that is Entmoot*...
not to say mind you that Entmoot is a BAD abyss, I just like using that word and it made that sentence seem a tad more dramatic and I'm just babbling on and on here and am probablt getting VERY annoying so I'll just shut up now.... |

Yep, the, "I wish that guy would shut up" phenomenon is exactly what I mean.

And there's no such thing as a stupid post, Laurelyn. Just...highly unintelligent ones. (For example? Anything by me!)

Most of my posts, Renille, are also . . . 'highly unintelligent.'

Hey Laurelyn, it happens and you sometimes can't stop posting even when no one's around.
I don't think it's stupid. I guess posters should just try to stick with the category topic. BTW, happy birthday, "happy birthday" guy!

Your posts are cool, Laurelyn. Mine are insane and unintelligent.

This happens to me a lot...I'm afraid I probably have a lot of people saying "SHUT UP STARR POLISH!"
