Hi, I am Joel. I lurked on this site for a long time, and finally decided to make an account and start posting. My goal is to get to 100 posts today. I was going to do this a few days ago, but I found that you can't make threads as a new member.
I have a few rules for my little mission today.
First rule is to not to get banned. From my research this means I can't make posts that just say "yea" or "I agree". High quality posts will be key.
Second rule is to not make any enemies. My primary reason for doing this is to be friendly with people. At first I thought this rule would be easy to follow. But after thinking about it more, it may be quite difficult. I am going to avoid posting opinions in the general forum, or participating in any sc2 vs bw "discussions" as those seem to be danger zones.
Third rule is to not go unnoticed. So many of TL posts lie on page 5 of 17 and never get read. The third rule mandates that my posts are quoted, or I am referred to by name at least 10 times today. Considering this rule, I am probably going to avoid fan club threads, and other large topics.
If anyone wants to join me, let me know. I would love to hear about it.

100 quality posts in one day would be a welcomed addition to TL. I don't think anyone has come close to doing that yet... but good luck!
|
100 posts per day? isn't 10 be enough? 
|
just post in the LR threads and you could probably do 100 posts in less than one hour
|
Ehh I only need 1 more post to get rid of my probe icon (moving up in the world I suppose) good luck, 100 posts in one day without using fan clubs/general forum will be tough.
Edit: and now I'm done with my goal of 1 post today.
|
In 4+ years I've rarely even posted 100 times in a week. My count is getting pretty high this week due to MLG though I'll probably get there. :D

Unfortonutely im not counting blog posts otherwise I would be finished with rule 3 already.
I just had a TvP build almost written in sc2 strategy, and my browser closed  . I will rewrite it later.

As this guy said. One great post a day is better than 100 shit posts.
Quantity doesn't mean anything. It's just a glorified figure really. It's all about quality

I have a feeling this is going to end badly.. But good luck...

25 posts so far. I am going to take a break.
The webcomics thread I made seems to be fairly successful.

It just stole the last 30 mins of my life, so yeah, pretty successful.

I applaud you on your journey. Godspeed!

so how long u been lurkin?
|
I get maybe 50 posts in 3 hours of LR, that helps.
|
Just go to the mafia forum and join a game. It shouldn't be too hard there ^^
|
I am going to start posting again in a bit.
I am going to use KST time for this, because it gives me a few more hours.

I read the site every so often while I was playing wc3. I started checking daily about a week into the SC2 beta.
I got a PM from some guy saying that some of my posts weren't high quality. I will try to step that up.

Blog posts appear to count as real posts, so I am going to be writing some of my thoughts on game design in my blog, and putting them in a starcraft context. I hope people like them. They take awhile to write though so I may need to rely on comments to get up to 100.

Well done sir.

I didn't make it, and then I got crazy busy for a long time. I finally have time to post again, but im not doing a 100 post thing. I apologize to Divinek. Sorry to let you down .

What are the rest of us? Chopped liver?!?

don't try to ram yourself into the community, let the community wrap around you and suck you in
