First Annual USMB A-Lister Posters Poll

[xotoxi]

xox tries too hard....

Most of my posts are generally responses to other posts in already existing threads. I do my best to respond to every single post that is written, but sometimes I miss a few.

As for starting thread, I generally only start threads for very important topics, such as a poll to see if people like or dislike polls.

I don't think starting high participation threads is a necessary requirement to be an A-list poster. Quality contributions to my threads should count too.

Oh, and one more thing Pondo... welcome to the dark side!

[G.T.]

I'd like to humbley nominate G.T. as the best poster that ever lived. When there are campfires in the desert, in the whispering winds the legend shall be told of this poster. He will be immortalized with the Gods of posting, and shall anyone speak of him ye best not speak in vain.

 

[bodecea]

Add DiveCon to the list.

if nominated, i will not run
if elected, i will not serve

There is no running or serving.

There is only pointing and laughing.

Plus the winner gets a three tiered trophy with a large bowl at the top.

And he or she has to skate around on ice, benchpressing and kissing it.

I left my last board for this very reason: They created an Us and Them mentality. There were posting "cliques" dominated by members who had been there since the boards inception. There was even one member whose posts was considered above reproach. They were the "Us". New members either fell in line with a "clique" fast or they were either ignored or ridiculed and negged into the red pretty quick. It was like fcukin' High School all over.

It is my opinion that making lists of "Good" posters will unduly influence the new members to not challenge them for their posts. If it were up to me, no one would have a join date or post count or rep points. That would force people to read the post rather than just look at the poster and make a judgement that way. I think a thread was started on that very subject a few weeks ago.

It's enough to divide USMB posters into Left and Right mentalities, let's not extend it to include a hierarchy.

And no, I'm not just whining because I wasn't on the list.

It's about quality moreso than quantity.

No offense, but the Puny Man's threads kinda suck.

You have yet to acheive A-List status Sunni.

Rumors abound of your anti-Semitic bigotry...

Any evidence you wish to provide to dispute said rumors will be accepted and reviewed in a timely manner...
