Poll question: As of 6/22/06, about how often do you post here at DU?

Sorry if this is a dupe poll, but I've always been curious about this.

Some people have totally amazing numbers, considering the short amount of time they've been members.

It's awesome!

[otherlander]

1. Bad Agent Mike!

Shoo! Go on, get! If you keep bothering us lefties, I'm going to tell a NPR reporter what you did on April 13, 2003!

[cboy4]

3. otherlander, could you please post your phone number so I can confirm

it's the one I've extracted? :hi:

[otherlander]

8. 504-1970 .... Now what's my first name, if my last name starts with "s"?

Now, as you know, I have already made the phone call. It's too late. There's nothing you can do to stop it. The evidence is conclusive, the journalist is well-respected, and you can't possibly hope to shut down all of NPR, and just in case you were thinking of trying, I've also contacted Indymedia, which is far too decentralized for you to have any effect on.

Just a few days, maybe even hours, the April 13th incident will break, and your actions in 2003 will be revealed to the world.

[cboy4]

11. Oh fine. What's next? Are you going to "out" my CIA agent wife?

:shrug:

DOUGH!! Me and my big mouth!

[otherlander]

13. No, slander's not really my thing...

but if you look for her, you'll find her quite gone without a trace. You see, I knew she was an asassin, and I couldn't risk her suiciding my journalist friend. If you ever want to see her again, board a disarmed battleship, and put a helicopter on deck. Meet me in the Indian Ocean, ten miles below the southern tip of India. We will discuss the terms of your wife's release. Be prepared to accompany me on the helicopter to the island of Diego Garcia. There you will tell your subordinates at the base that one Ferdinand Mason is to be transfered to an American prison. Return with him to the helicopter, and he will be released in Canada. Then you will see your wife again.

15. Very good "strategery" on your part. And quite evil...They must have

some sort of job opening for you at the GOP -- IF YOU DON'T ALREADY WORK FOR THE GOP!!! (dramatic music)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Well, I've done 36 so far today......

And the day isn't over yet!

That really adds up.....

About 250 per week! :scared:


:wow:

[cboy4]

4. !!! DU should really start handing out frequent post miles...err something

for passionate patriots like you! :patriot:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. My dear cboy4!

Oh, that's not necessary at all......

I love to be here, and having a high post count is my reward!

:hi:

[Random_Australian]

20. My record: 120 in one day... heh heh heh.

[Quantess]

5. I'm snowballing my post count

When I first signed up, I didn't post at all for a week or 2. Then I just posted now and then, but only when I felt really compelled to.

These days, when I check in to DU, in my mind I think I might only post one time per visit, or maybe just read....but it never works out that way. I end up posting A LOT. I've only been here 4 months and I have nearly 500 posts.:o

[Fox Mulder]

6. ~16-40 per week.

I'll be posting more now that I have the internets. :)

[cboy4]

9. LOL! Speaking of the internets:

Don't know if you've seen this already, but it cracks me up every time I watch!

[Fox Mulder]

10. ROFL!

:rofl:

[pitohui]

12. how do you even get this information

i see people all the time say they have just made 5,000 posts or wherever but it seems to me once you've made 1,000 posts the odometer stops rolling over -- and maybe it's just as well

[cboy4]

14. If you look at your profile, you can see exactly how many posts

you have

[pitohui]

17. my profile says user has disabled profile

i am jack's idiot

[cboy4]

18. Well you don't sound especially interested in finding out anyway,

considering the "just as well" comment, but if you are, simple:

Enable your profile, look, and then disable again.

[pitohui]

23. i'm pretty conflicted about it but thanks for the suggestion

update -- i quickly realized that "enable your profile" while it probably had a meaning to the advice giver, it had no meaning to the reader, there is no key i saw letting me enable my profile, i think i'm going to write this off as a bad job

sorry, fans

[Nicole]

26. It's under edit preferences

After you click on the Options folders on the top of this page. Click on Edit Preferences. The fourth option down asks if you want to hide your profile. After checking no, scroll down to the bottom of the page & click update. You're done.

[pitohui]

30. nicole you are my hero!

that's what i needed, the step by step for dummies version

having learned that i've left 6,200 posts i need to seriously think abt getting control of my time and stop farting around so much

but that's another issue!

[Nicole]

32. Glad to help

It's adding to my numbers. :rofl:

[cboy4]

34. LOL!!!!!!!

No fair!! :rofl:

[Nicole]

35. Good one huh?

Who said life is fair? Especially in the lounge? :P

[cboy4]

37. Darn the lounge!

:(

[pitohui]

36. you can be my hero too

it sure ain't your fault i was too dumb to understand your explanation

thank all

:-)

[cboy4]

38. Awwww :) I'm sorry, I didn't understand you didn't know how to enable

your profile :)

But Nicole has my back!

[Reverend_Smitty]

16. well I've been here about 2 years and 4 months

and I have 8029 posts so dividing that number by 120 (number of weeks I've been here) that comes out to about 66.9 posts a week. That seems about right

[Random_Australian]

19. 7000 IN LESS THAN 5 MONTHS!

Beat that!

only total average above me is MissNewYawker, though ZombieNixon has been doing more than me these past few months.

I once posted 1000 times in one week!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. My dear Random_Australian!

1000 times in one week? :scared:

You have beated even ME!

Good for you! :toast:

[Random_Australian]

40. It was one holiday when I was all alone, so for one week, I only

had DU friends. Therefore, 1000 posts!

[cboy4]

25. Yea mate, do you even do laundry or just buy replacement

"unmentionables?!!" LOL!! ;)

Mighty impressive post total, never the less!

[Jazz2006]

28. Ahem

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with buying replacements instead of doing laundry.

Sheesh!

I hate doing laundry.

I send nearly everything out for drycleaning or laundering in any event, but I also am notorious for buying duplicates, triplicates, and quadruplicates ~ so what's wrong with that?

Replacements R Us

:D

[cboy4]

29. Shhhhh....but even I've gone out a purchased boxers to get me through

a day or seven! :blush:

[Jazz2006]

39. Your secret

is safe with me :D

hee hee

:toast:

[Random_Australian]

42. Yep, very secret, very safe. Pfffft!

[Random_Australian]

41. I do my laundry just fine. I have a life, in fact.

[cboy4]

43. I was just teasing you! Gosh. Keep your shorts on.....(if

you have any clean ones.) :rofl:

JUUUST KIDDING :)

[Nicole]

22. Not many

Average about 10 I guess. I've been here since 2002 & just barely have 2100.

Some weeks I will make 10 post a day. Sometimes I don't post any for 2-3 months.

[cboy4]

24. I've been here since late 2002 and have fewer than you. But yea, I'm with

you....sometimes there are days (like today) when I can't turn off the computer....and then I go for weeks without posting at all.

[Nicole]

27. Except for the two who joined recently

You & I have been here longer than anyone else who has replied. Yet we have the lowest numbers. I guess we are not addicted yet. :rofl:

[cboy4]

31. I'm getting scared though! Help me Nicole

:rofl:

[Nicole]

33. I already did

I think we have both exceeded our weekly averages in one night, on this thread! :rofl:

[tjwmason]

44. Golly - since I first signed up average of 17.4 per day.

I didn't post at all for my first 6 months or so, and I've taken two fairly large breaks in the middle of that as well....

[cboy4]

45. Is there a UK conversion rate when it comes to 17.4 per day, or

does 17.4 also equate to 17.4 in the U.S.? :P

Well done....impressive total!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

46. Chris'--I've posted 141+ A DAY before.

I definitely do it in a whole week!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

47. I have averaged exactly 14.60 posts per day.

14,822 posts per day, and I've been a member for 1015 days (September 12, 2003).
