    Writing Crap to get your # of Post up

    I've noticed on AO that a lot of newcomers here have hit over 400 posts in less than a few months giving them the status of Antionline Senior Members. Now its not that I really care about status, but I find it stupid how someone can obtain a level of status that is suppose to say "hey here’s a person who knows something", but what they really did was post something lame or reply to a post with something stupid or something that didn't need to be said. If you wanted to show a senior member who has real status not someone who has too much free time on there hands, we need to change the way we rank people here. Look at me I've been here since 9-17-2001 and have only 350 +/- post. I believe the quality of the post needs to be judged in comparison to the rank of our members. People need to use there AO points more often and judge them on quality of the post, Attitude, Relevance, and Over all Helpfulness of the post and set a time limit on return AO points so that someone cant retaliate just because there where – points given. Now I’m not saying that everyone who has come here in the past few months and that made senior member hasn’t posted good post but there have been a few who have managed to slip threw the cracks. Its up to you, do you want a serious site that commits to helping people with security issues or is this site going to go down the tubes. I first came to this site in hopes to learn a few things about security and maybe add my 2 cents worth but the quality has dropped dramatically since then.

    Hope I see some good posts to come…

    and what about you ? Posts: 349 and 2 dots, you seem to be one of those people you're ranting about....
    Dots and #'s don't mean ****, get over yourselves and move on.

    While I agree with much of your complaint, this is site suggestions. Was there a suggestion here, or just ranting?

    Oh, by the way, don't mind Copyright, apparently you stepped on his internet toes:

    bye bye
    No thread you participate in is a good discussion. You are a PRIME example of what Ghost is talking about, which is probably the reason you find yourself so insulted by the topic of this thread in the first place. Go back to GCC where you belong lamer.... you aren't even worthy of being on the same internet as most of the folks here.


    chsh: Yeah, I'm flaming again... ....I can offer no excuse other than to say that ©opy®ight is a worthless troublemaker who is in need of extended therapy. He kinda reminds me of a "skid mark" on the bottom of the toilet....no matter how many times you flush he just won't go away.

    Ummmm no and I don't think you get it at all. He has been here for awhile.

    Look around, I do nothing but point out something wrong I see with other's posts and make a total ass out of myself and most of the "respected senior members" and new-guys alike, they all attempt to reward me just because im the big ******* of AO that everyone seems to confuse as some kind of an interesting and funny character.

    When I signed up with a new account I made a bunch of posts with phrases like poop and crap in it... within a week or two I was right back to where I was before as far as AP and posts go through basicly nothing but name recognition alone. One of the first posts I've posted in addicts with this account was dedicated to my own ass and the crap inside my toilet.

    Ghost's initial post describes like 90% of the senior members at this site. And *all* of the new(er) ones - including myself. I still don't feel like I deserve any such title as "senior" cuz hell - I'm computer savvy but I'm no secuirty expert like some of the people I see around here. We've all been saying for a loooong time that post count and antipoints have absolutely nothing to do with the amount of knowledge or skill a particular member has. No amount of suggestions or rantings will change that. The only way to change how we recognize members that know wtf they're talking about just from looking at their profile information or whatever would be to add a whole 'nother level to our caste system - based completely on perceived knowhow. I personally don't think it's needed. There are several members that pop in like once a month (maybe) that know more than all but a few of the members that frequent this site and they may or may not be "senior" members but they're sure as hell respected.

    No I just dont make it my life mission to please everyone, If they dont like what I have to say then they Neg me If they do and they dont give me greenies then my greenies stay low. Thats been the whole story here. only 2 greenies because people dont take the time to pass them to me or the ones I do get dont count if you are a Noobie, but thats not why im here and people please dont give me greenies just because of this post give them to me if I contribute to the better of this site. most posts I repy to are noobie questions and thats who gives me credit for my help. I really didn't mean to get a flame started here and yes chsh I did give a suggestion so I think I posted this in the right spot.


    One more thing to add: Copywrite you are exactly the person I'm talking about been here since Aug 2004 and already addit. If you have been band twice from this site doesnt that tell you something like "We dont want you here"!
