forum members you miss / wish would post more

It's funny that I've been here longer than 90 percent of the posters I see, but I'm still pretty much unknown (not the poster). I don't post much, I mostly lurk, so I guess I've never really added anything to the forums. I'm kind of amazed I've come here almost every day for four years now :lol:

I remember you mate! You've got taste, we need more people with genuinely good taste, post more often. ;)

Lutz was cool, haven't seen him for years.
 
I think this thread makes no sense. The fact that these beloved posters post less than frequently means they consider their posts worthwhile and only post when necessary, rather than trying to boost their post count or looking for meaningless things to talk about.

That said, some quality posters here post less because they limit their time surfing this site, most likely because they have better things to do with their lives. I can imagine many of these, such as Satanstoenail, going on this forum only once a day as part of their routine before or after work. That makes it an activity in and of itself, rather than something to pass the time.

Personally, I use my time here as filler between all the rest of the things I do, which is plenty. I'm a person who keeps a daily routine, so I always have certain times a day, such as before breakfast, after work and after dinner that I come here.

To sum it all up, I see that most of the posters here whom we hold in high regard are that way because they post only when necessary.
 
We need more people from when UM started to 2005 to post. It's mostly 2006, 2007 and 2008 now.

I'm still here

I don't agree with that. I hold people in high regard when they positively contribute to discussion - you, Dodens, etc. It doesn't really matter to me if they post a bunch of filler.
 
I was thinking to myself before that post, "if one person responds saying they remember me it will more likely than not be MalignParadigm" :lol:

I remember you as well. And I'm in the same situation as you. Been lurking for a really long time but barely contributed over the years...so I'm still unknown. Oh well, I prefer my anonimity over the kind of WeAreInFlames and the likes "fame".

I don't see anything wrong with wanting more quality posts from someone who's style you like. Anyone who posts purely to boost their post count has problems. I hear internet behaviour & addiction is getting a lot of attention from researchers and psychologists. It'll be interesting to see all the new disorders they come up with.

I spend more time on here than I probably should. You're pretty much correct though, I usually only come on here once a day, whether it be for half an hour or three hours. And I'm usually looking at a bunch of other stuff at the same time. After work or before bed mostly.

To sum it all up, I see that most of the posters here whom we hold in high regard are that way because they post only when necessary.

Agreed. "When necessary" is pretty blurry though.
 
I just don't know how the hell some of you have so many posts. You have nearly 3 times as many posts as me, and only have only been registered 3 months longer. I don't think there is that much interesting stuff to talk about here to warrant a 20+ a day post count, imo.

That's because you only like American Football and Opeth, so it gets old fast.

Yeah. If you posted more, it wouldn't seem so impossible.

You need to post more about metal, Rick

Yeah well people like you trying to take cheap shots at me for no reason got old a year or more ago. If you can't see that I talk about more than just football and Opeth then get your eyes checked.

Yeah. If you posted more, it wouldn't seem so impossible.

What exactly am I supposed to post more concerning metal? I mean there's only so much you can say. Yeah such and such band is awesome! Yeah well your opinion sucks! dur dur durrdudurur

Sounds pretty boring if you ask me. I don't need to talk about metal. Someone elses opinion isn't going to sway me one way or another on a band because, well, they don't think like me. They aren't going to like exactly what I like. So what's the point?
