Actually,i have asked a bunch of questions,and some of the replies were good and some were less than helpful.But,i was always corteous in my responses.Let me give you an example.
I started a thread about ampules,how they were made and why they would be used over regular vials.Most of the responses were smart asses,they would say,why would you thik about that,just inject and enjoy.Then Basskiller(i think thats who it was)starts this thread about how much juice is lost in syringes,between shots,even has pictures,does experiment.His responses were ,great post,your the man,you rock,blah,blah. I found his thread very intresting as well,but if i came up with it ,well i just think about weird shit.From what i see,if your a newbie just compliment every post,tell them how great they are,and your in.

Flex...I am sorry if your posts were met with flames or too much joking around.

And I am not sure that my point to you has been understood. Sorry you feel the way you do, sorry you have had some bad experiences.

This board happens to be a very well run and decidedly a nice play to be.....

Indeed you are racking up posts! Anyway -- no harm no foul....you asked why it was a rule, and I tried my best to explain.

[B]Well, your debative tone is somewhat disrespectful, I suppose. However, I will indulge your questions.

As for post counts - I wanted to see about 200 posts -- to be honest to allow someone the PRIVELEGE of getting a source check. The others mods felt that 50 was better and I am fine with that. However it has been proven time and again that people with 10, 15, 20 posts -- were the members who were asking for checks and since they had nothing "vested" in the board would get pissed off and rude if we did not answer timely enough for them, would not email a source saying this guy is a good bro (how do we know -- you are not around long enough for us to get to know you)......it is all about trust. All about loyalty.

i'm not sure if just because someone has a few posts they can't be trusted or if you have alot you can be trusted.

I was not aware of the new rule. I dont post much, I'm a lurker. I come here every day and read.......I guess I'll have to start posting more often.

Sassy -- you did not include my last paragraph in your quote -- which if you are going to quote someone, you should include the whole post - as in my last paragraph I did say about post counts not being the only thing......

its swassy, yes i saw the whole thing. i'm not arguing with you just stating that i don't think it means much what your post count is, its just says yes you have contributed some posts which any regular personcan do and a cop can do. i'm fine with the rule though.

Sorry for the misspelling of your name...I do apologize.

You saw the whole thing but it is not fair to then quote me -- and not give the whole quote if you are going to have a differing opinion...in all fairness to readers, it should be complete as you left off the fact that I mentioned it is not purely about post count.

It is not a matter of law enforcement either. The whole point is missed......one must give back...in order to get...it is not all about taking. Plus I also referenced earlier in this thread, someone giving mods a hard time when a mod will not step up for a newbie to a source. How can I defend someone I do not know?

[bigjim33]

it is a give take relationship, not a take all.
