Post count
 

Before the introduction of all the smut games, reaching milestones of posts meant that a significant contribution to forum was made by the poster.

It was a real achievement and quite noteworthy to get 1000 posts.

To an avid player of smut games, 1000 posts can be quickly achieved whereas a poster who starts threads and joins in discussions will take forever to amass such a tally.

The person playing smut games is having fun and that is great to see.

It does seem that reaching a land mark figure of 1000, 2000 or so on posts is not as noteworthy in some cases as others.

i know it is not a matter of any importance and it is good that people enjoy pixies in any way they wish but I believe that the real achievements are made in quality rather than quantity.

These are just my thoughts after seeing a rash of milestones reached recently asnd thinking to myself, is this really a noteworthy achievement.

I do not intend to cause offence to anyone by pondering over this but was just making a personal observation

LOL...quality is very subjective, as is rudeness. Glad you feel comfortable expressing yourself. Hopefully everyone else still feels as comfortable.

I belong to a few boards where the off topic posts are not counted specifically for the reasons that Grumble elluded to in his post. Of course, in those cases there were actually people there that went out of their way to elevate their status solely through random posting. As if your post count meant you were better than someone else. Fortunately at Pixies the post counts do not seem to matter as much as the content of the material posted by the individuals. It is pretty obvious from reading just a few posts those that are truly part of the community and those that are not.

Just my $0.000002

If someone finds enjoyment from reaching a milestone with posts... good. That means Pixies is a positive thing for them and in that we should be glad. Let the individual decide how much their achievements are worth. Even in smut games people learn about one another and form relationships, so who gets to judge who has posts that are worthy and who does not.

Well, my thoughts are this....

People come here to have fun and if that involves posting celebratory threads, then so be it....no skin off my ass. :spin:

BIBI are you trying to turn me on with this sexy talk of skinned ass?:spank:

I saw a lady in a convertible the other day with plates that said BIBI...I checked to see if it was you :p

:( Oh sure pick a day when the new girl post her count.

*Slinks back now to her smut game corner*

Tess, I'm proud of us no matter what anyone else thinks. I post where and when I want, smut games or a thread of general chat/advice/pictures. Like a "famous" pixie member said.."this is a community and everyone is different."

(((Tess))) no slinking off. Smutt games were moved to their own area almost 2 years ago. Makes it much easier to keep the chat and sex topics from being constantly covered by those who love to flirt and play with eachother through the games. There are forums that I do not use as much as others but that does not mean the posts there are not important and valuable to the community I belong to.

I have to admit, I've thought the same thing as Grumble from time to time. But, after considering a few things. I decided that all milestones are important. Each post is important. Because each post is someone getting involved and having fun. And they should all be celebrated. I do not think that those with higher post counts should be considered "better" than those with lower. As long as that's not going on...I see no reason why we should throw a lil party thread when someone feels acomplished. And as for smut games...I know there's a lot of controversary about them. Me..I don't play there much. But...I met one of my closest friends on Pixies playing there....so they can't be all that bad. :)

Because I am new I didn't know that there was a controversary about the smut games. I didn't know it was a big deal to make a thread on my count. I was not tooting my horn in as much as I thought it was funny. I had after all seen many threads on the same thing.

No big deal, I am not upset. I just think it sucks that it is on a day that I made a big deal out of something silly. I know that there are many important threads going on in General Chat. Maybe we could start a game for this sort of thing? :jester:

Just rest assure I will not be making a thead when I hit the 4000 mark. :)

Well it should be!! :mad:





ROFLMAO :D

I'll give you two post credits for each game post you put in quarantine. Or how about each REAL post gets a flair gun so I can find them when Sharni opens the floodgates? LOL ;)

As with all of life, the significance of things evolves as others are added. I’m just grateful for the contributions from people like TinglingTess and TinTennessee, regardless where they are posted. :) The importance and pleasure of Pixies to me is not connected to any numbers or dates. I enjoy and become close to the people I come to know and like. Just as I don’t bother with the ones I don’t. This is a real place and like real life to me. I don’t want it to be different.

Call me when I can cash in posts for cash and prizes. I may change my tune then. ;)



LOL :D

Prizes, what kind of prizes? This could work to my advantage! lol
