Does the number of post you have on the DF bring you status or prove you like to BS?

[Guest SalG (Sal Grenci)]

Hi all, Yes I know I am setting myself up with this one. But, does the post count mean anything other than you like to see yourself in cyberprint? SalG

Hey! I resemble that remark...<P>Higher posts counts indicate:<BR><ul><BR>[*]You have too much time on your hands. <BR>[*]You like to hear yourself talk. <BR>[*]You know that you know more than anybody else. <BR>

[Guest]

No Status. Just a good BS quotient. hvs

[Rick Hoover]

Did someone call me?

[novaman]

I also resemble that remark....<P>In my case there is no status.<P>I like seeing the posts so I have an idea as to how new someone (other than Howard and his name changing) is to the DF.<P>I like talking to others about cars and really like to be able to help answer questions they might have. I feel this is the best way of keeping members (notbeing able to get help maskes you wonder about your fellow members interest) and also to help get new members by being the the "place" they can get answers or told were to they can get it.<P>Now,....if you ask my girlfriend. It's too much time for me to talk for the sake of talking, because I think I know more than everybody else, and like seeing it in the cyberworld. <p>[This message has been edited by novaman (edited 09-11-2000).]

Jeez, that seemed like such a good idea 20 minutes ago, before the mouse started cutting out on me.

Dave, ~ I like your idea for raising the count. Now let's see--- In a day or two using that approach I could get back up to where I was when I fell overboard.<P>novaman ~ My name changes are really the result of computer ineptitude not some well thought out plan to disguise my number of posts.<P>I'll admit it, I like to write.

SalG - the DF is just an extension of us gear heads BSing with each other at car shows, monthly meetings and every other type of car event. The DF just gives us the opportunity to BS 24/7.

[Guest rcirilli]

Status heck no, to me it's like going to a car show without the expense or without getting a chip. and like to bs........naaa

[Guest]

Hey, Father Ron. If you don't BS why are you wearing those high cut boots, frequently resferred to a s--- kickers? Howard

[novaman]

So, That's why all those flies are atracted to my computer when i'm on the DF. It's the MBs of BS on the DF on my PC. there's another one! <P> * <P>Got him!<p>[This message has been edited by novaman (edited 09-14-2000).]

Can't be the status - come Feb and I'll just be plain member. Can't be the BS factor - those of you that know me (and love me) know I am totally incapable of BS (and I just proved it!)

[DugsSin]

Am I the only one who noticed that Dave's count stayed they same through his 12 post's?

[Guest]

My assumption has been that a Senior Member's vehicle(s) are completely finished.<P>A Member's vehicle is not quite finished, thus he/she does not have the time, yet, to make a lot of posts.<P>------------------<BR>heizmann<BR>senior member

[Rick Hoover]

That's the best one I heard yet!<P>Glad to see you finished your car and made Senior Member at 10 posts, heizmann<P>Rick

It'd be nice if we could get a number for each posting (i.e. this would be post 492/492, the previous posts above would've been 475-487/492, I think). That might help in calling up old threads for reference.

493/493

[Dave@Moon]

494/494<P>Hey this is fun with a new mouse!

Read todays' issue of DILBERT for a full explanation! The creator of that comic strip (Scott Adams) has uncanny insight into our society; particularly our Corporate Culture.<BR>(I was the Manager with the pointed hair) Tom

I've been here since December and I only have a few.

[Guest]

Rick:<P>Thank you. My TR-6 is about 98% finished, however, the balance of 2% is what I call "Hersheyizing".<P>You folks know the feeling. That's the fun of the hobby. They are never finished.<P>I was in the garage today with a 16 point "Hersheyizing" checklist to clean this, touch up that. After about 20 minutes my "Hersheyizing" list grew to 19 points.<P>Peter J.<P>------------------<BR>heizmann<BR>senior member

did i start something... re... member/senior member!!!!!!!!!

[ronbarn]

Speaking of BS reminds me of an episode of Northern Exposure (one of the few good TV programs in recent years). The theme for that show was, "It's not what you fling, it's the fling itself". That should confuse a few!
