    I guess I'll be the Negative Nelly. Why in the hell do you care about post count on some stupid forum?
    I don't think it has anything to do with caring about it so much as just noting that he/she has been on this site for x time and "just" made a particular count.

    And for the record, the site could put my count to 0 and I'd be fine with it.

    as you can see by H0urg1ass, Nyctelios and SedrynTyros's post count and their epic status compared to mine you will do well to consider that only quality posts/threads not quantity of them get you there.  :)
    What you need is points, which you accumulate when others react positively to your posts.

    Pro tip, LOLs are considered to be positive....


    Yeah, Grind that Raid LOL Boss @Gdemami

    I LOL'd.

    I agree, by the time you get the legendary status, you already recognize the regulars and know enough about them to inform your opinion of their posts.

    I always considered it mostly a result of Bill and the gang coming up with a neat little way to encourage participation on the forums.  Vibrant forums help encourage recurring traffic.

    Oh its very very important to some on here...they even hand out super special colors(desktop version) and titles for those with thousands of post.  It appears these super users are also held to a different standard then say a poster with 88 or 250 post.

    Be careful questioning the post counts...
    You only get the color thingy if you get many likes, post count don't count...so watch out :p

    PS: I think it is:
    500 points Blue
    1500 points Purple
    5000 points Orange

    WTF don't count I guess?

    @Kyleran -  The name color doesn't matter much... but, if you ever get rid of the cat avatar, there will be a mob at your door.  Those long-time avatar pictures are actually the quickest way to recognize you long-winde.. er long-standing members.

    And, I say that as someone who hates cats :tongue:

    Yeah, a couple of people have changed their avatar pictures over the years and I'm like "Who ARE you?!?"  You say things I like to hear, but you look nothing like the person saying them!

    I wonder if it's like conjuring a demon.

    If you just draw the rune circle ( @ ) and say his name in every thread, if he will appear in a ring of fire and smoke, with echoing laughter.

    No worries, unlike @Torval or @MadFrenchie I stick with one, and only one avatar photo, just like my gaming.....

    Not too hard, just carry your phone everywhere and text at all opportunities where "deadtime" presents itself.  

    Heck, I could drive to work on the Interstate however as it's not really much faster I usually take secondary roads in order to hit "red lights," as where I live it's legal to text while driving while stopped at a light.  ;)

    Helps if you are a strong multi tasker as well, can text while shaving, brushing teeth, feeding the cats, and while doing my daily 3 mile walk. (Don't try this while running or riding your bicycle.)  :#

    I have had a dig at both Torval and Frenchie about this, how are we going to be obnoxious elitists who only look at regular posters if they keep changing their avatars? :)

    Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse.
