AN Member Post Count Obsession

In my original post, I forgot to mention all the whiners and moaners who make a mad fuss about when a poster signed up for their AN account or how many posts they have, especially when a relatively new member starts a topic of interest in the Pub. A lot of that also simply seems like jealousy and post envy to me masquerading as being judge and jury.

Ex spurt 5 month newbie,              sooo long cisco😭

You must have done a lot of reading here, being a newish member, to make such a statement........😉

Is that your long time expert opinion?

As I said, it's not a measure of anything, but here you are going down that rabbit hole. How many posts a person has is not indicative of how much they know about or how long they have been in Thailand. Perhaps they've been here longer than you, and who even cares, but maybe they have better things to do with their time and simply are not interested in posting. So any measures you choose to apply based on post count or how long they have had their AN account are all meaningless. 

Guys that have been here 20 years and only have a handful of post don't normally show up one day talking about their 18 year old girlfriend, sick buffalos, or their wife's 'Brazilian Buttlift."  Just saying.

Maybe not. But does that devalue or invalidate what they are saying?

Very likely. Many people sign up, quickly lose interest after getting flamed, or read all the long winded rubbish that gets posted, then retreat and may only post occasionally or not at all after that.
 

Also, if you follow all the negative and judgmental comments from all the long time (self professed expert) posters on AN then you might find life in Thailand completely miserable. So can't blame many for ignoring it all and living in the real world so that maybe they can enjoy themselves more.  

 

It seems you want to win this contest.

You joined 187 days ago, and you posted already 626 times.

Do this for 10 years and have almost as many as those long time members you complain about. 555

Back to what is was before. Up votes and down votes and no anonymizer for emoji responses. Who cares how many posts a person has made. Means nothing if they're all trolling crap.

That's the entire problem. You think this is all a contest when it's not. That's the whole point of this topic, but you clearly don't seem to get that. And here we are you with you noting when I joined and how many posts I have. Can't make this stuff up. You should now make another 10,000 posts and beat your chest some more. 555. 🤣

Sunbeam, if someone comes on here with questionable stuff, us of a suspicion nature, first look to see if it's a 'new' boy, comprehendy.......😉

They always tell  you that:

 

"You have too much time on your hands."

 

But, my question is:

 

How would they know?

 

This coming from the guy that announced very early on  that he intended to post as much as possible just to get his posting numbers up high.

Thanks for an excellent example. Not a single intellectual post from yourself. Just hundreds of daily useless ad hominem attacks and emojis negative emojis to posts you don't agree with.

Agreed. All hee-hee, ha-ha anecdotal rubbish without substance, but not withstanding a smattering of relentless and useless emojis.
