when a few more of the comrades make another handful of posts the first postcount page won't have any more starting members on it! i wonder how long it will take until everyone on that page will have had to meet the full membership requirements?

btw: while i'm on the subject of paging, how the heck do you get to the SECOND page in the postcount listings? when i select any page number at all it just sits right there and never loads!

And none of those stupid countdown posts for me!

JT, here's what you do. Go to this link, which is the second page of the members list.
To get to the 3rd-11th pages, just change the last character in the URL (in this case, the
number "2") to any number from 3-11 and boom, you're there!

Hardware hacking can be the most fun, though I suppose the best recipie is a little of both. For
instance, getting OSX to run on a Himalayan-ized PowerBook 2400 is something to behold,
indeed!

Need I point out that by basing rank on the number of posts, you encourage really mindless posts (not excluding this one), more worthy of AOL Instant Messaging than a 'forum'?

I truly don't care about post count or rank. I just try to be a semi-valuable member to the community.

---

i just try not to become too much of a pest!

we've actually had this discussion several times before. i really think it's the joking around and silly stuff in the forums here that are the reason for the rapid growth of the MLA and set the barracks apart from the prissy businesslike sterility (entirely my own personal opinion based for the most part upon searches of archives) of the old newsgroups.

even fritter which, has in my experience. has always been a much more focused topic/information oriented forum and a very content oriented site has lately been loosening up and allowing horseplay to foster community building.

i really feel that it is the tomfoolery and the fun and games which is helping to create what i call "Dynamic Content" that is more along the lines of the human contact that was such an important part of the UserGroup phenomenon, businesslike troubleshooting is available elsewhere. it was the people and social contact that made NYMUG great not the just the information. the 68kMLA makes it fun and socially oriented again and i know that's why i stuck around. i've drifted in and out of different forums and groups for years before discovering this place and it was the horseplay with firewire at first and then the AIMlike i/o strategy discussions with cinemo about his 840av project that held my interest. when folks like the maniac started to bring much a more eclectic approach to life and obsessions to the discussion there was no way they could get rid of me!

dunno, as i've said before, if conspicuous displays of maturity and a focus on a sterile and efficient assembly of serious content and the exclusion of horseplay and peripherally related off-topic discussion ever becomes an overriding concern in the forums, i'm outta here!

I find these forums to be most informative & have rarly learned so much in such a short space of time.

This has got to me I think, along with moving house & 2 new jobs recently I.........

I need a holiday.

Maybe I just dont operate well in a sterile help environment.

As for the horseplay........

I have not laughed so much & so naturally at anything else for quite a while, I do belive that we have captured the "spirit" of 68k computing.

When user groups were rife & you had a choice of 5 or 6 computer companies rather than 2 companies(except it is 1 cos microsoft bought apple).

I never planned to & only as an aside use my computer for so called "productivity software"

I want innovation from my computer & niether apple nor pc are getting my bussiness at the moment.(apple 68k a different beast IMHO).

How many posts did he actually make?

TOO MANY! Distribution of information on the exact count is on a need to know basis only, it's a security matter, loose lips sink ships and all that!

Let's put it this way, my Idiot under-cover alter-ego here is still pretty far up there in the post counts, the story on that can be pieced together using the search function if you really wanna know!
