Did I really post that much in the missing period, in order for me to still be just an Oracle? And I soo wanted to be a Powerful Wizard now! :'(
/me urges Yonkey to dig up those missing posts asap, or he'll set the commando cat team on him!
At least I'm in 4th place, passed the Boardnation-user, even before I posted on this new-fangled board. :o
I'm much too far behind. Unfortunately, my posting spress came after these posts, so I only have like, 100 or so of my 800= posts I originally had :(
Maybe it's because the posting spree/race/battle of the post counts was after the last backup of the vBulletin forum, so no one got the credit for the posts they made then :-\
That's exactly what happened. The posting sprees happened somewhere in July IIRC. It started with Storm or bushie racing to become Great Oracle first. ;D
Hey, it wasn't just us. I remember some other people were posting uncontrollably at the time ::)
Yeah! I wasn't even racing either, I was just trying to reply to all the new posts that came up during each of my sessions. ;) After all, someone had to help me have something to reply to! ;D
yeah yeah, now you all act like you dont know what is that all about :P
riight :D

::recalls the UNGODLY amount of post reply notifications she used to recieve, and is relieved she just comes and reads now!::
Yup!!
Love the new icon, Mango :)
Katie, Bushie - thanks! I made it meself cos now I can MAKE ICONS :D
As for the posting thing *cough*... We weren't REALLY racing. I was just replying to people since it's impolite to not answer, lol. I couldn't help if that racked up 50+ posts a day...
Say's a magical genie?! I say... *coughbriberycoughcoughcough*... Heh.
Hahahaha!!! , envyyyyy :D !!!!!!!!!!!
die you jealouz ppl :P !
the only one around here who diserves this tittle as well is storm girl! she has been posting since I can remember this forum ever got to life! :P you go girl!
Oooo! Magical Genie! That's a cool name!
And me still just a royal heir...ah well! :P
If it's replying or playing innocent - that many is still a spree of ridiculcous proportions!! I didn't mind that so much as I hated that I couldnt get it to stop emailing for EVERY ONE OF THEM.
One can only read so much about cats mangoes and bunnies and wahtever else at a time....
Oh yeah, I remember when I used to have the notification thing also, I used to get like over 20 mails per day just from the forum posts :D
btw to see katie's icon reminds me of how much I liked that movie, I so loved C. Jack :)
Not only is Say a Magical Genie, but she's also Supah Say!!! She's so special she gets two statuses! ;D
/me is slightly jealous of Say but loves her anyway. ;D

Thanks Say!! ;D
Did you hear that, Yonkey? ;)
Actually, it's BECAUSE of me that the forums came to life (yeah, as if :P)
Not only that I wasn't racing, I never post anything silly or pointless. ::)
And I didn't post any one-liners till I saw everyone else were doing it :P
I never did a posting spree. I just did a little more effort to reach Great Oracle before Mango and Dragon, because I was closer than they were and I was really close. But apart from that, NEVER. Nevertheless that, there's about half of my current post count gone missing. I should have been a PW.
Now, Say, what can I say, she's a Supah Say, who can stop her?
This is really unfair... LOOK AT ME.... 73? And I was at 700 and Say has 1600? ANd look at the knight? can't we do a witness thing or so so 5 or more witnesses given and you get your old number? :-\ :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
AND WHO ADDED THE SUFFER?
And in the top 15 list there are a bunch of people who don't EVEN post anymore!
Witnesses? :suffer:
Hehehe J/K. ;D All the post counts on here are accurate because I used the exact posting numbers from YaBB cgi, vBulletin and Boardnation.
You'll get your vBulletin post counts when I get access to the actual posts. :)

Sorry, but I don't remember other people's post count. In fact, I don't even remember my own (exactly)! I only know I already was an oracle without the extra posts from boardnation, so I had more than 500 posts. Add to that the 200+ posts from Boardnation and I'd either
be a Wizard or close to it.
So will I get 700 posts? Like how come other people have so many and I don't? DRAGONS ROAR AND FLY TO BURN YONKEY'S HOME.............................UMM..........WHERE'S YONKEYS HOME................ITS NOT FAR...............SOMEWHERE IN OTTAWA.............HMMMMMMMMMM...............SEARCH THE SKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEY LITTLE GREEN DUDE, AVATAR GUY GO KILL YONKEY!!!!!!!!!!
I had around 920 posts on last count, so eventually I'll get 500 posts added back on I hope. :D
Don't go after Yonkey, Dragonslyr, go find his director in Greece! That is the only man on Earth who knows the location of the missing posts...
This just goes to show who DID go on a posting spree, and made most of his posts in the little time after the backup ::)
Posting spree tip #2: Log on to the KQ9 forums 3 times a day or more, and reply to everything you can with something meaningful so it doesn't look like spam. Ignore the serious discussions you have no real response for or Yonkey will get angry. ;)
Better yet, learn how to pull stuff completely out of your butt so you can reply to the serious discussions too without getting Yonkey angry. :suffer:
Peace & Luv, Liz
Posting spree tip #3 Just don't get Yonkey angry. :suffer:
Posting spree tip #5 - Get a rise out of people so you'll get to post a lot in the ensuing argument ::)
Posting spree tip #6 - Post a lot of meaningless tips that a lot of people already know. ;)
omg, what a lot of crap lol :D
#7.- create silly topics like this where you can pretend to be witty
btw gotta admit I liked the #3 ! :D
And btw, I happen to have 1600 because I am older than many ppl around here, the only one that I can recall around MY time its Storm, thats why she is second place! :) !!
I'm actually an oldbie on the team :D!! weeeeee :)
and NO KILLING YONKEY!!! >:( !!!!

ADMIT IT!!! you love me :D (yeah right) hahah :P
Posting spree tip #8 - Keep your posts short. If your post is longer than 2 lines - split it.

Say was here befor me, so I have an excuse for being 2nd place. ::)
Back then more of the team members used to post here. What happened to all of them? got busy? :-\
I miss some of the old members - Dragonstar, TakariFreak, Akril and the rest.
I wonder why they don't post here anymore :(
I saw Dragonstar and Takarifreak once or twice on the temp forums I think, but perhaps they got bogged down by school. Perhaps when the winter break comes we'll see them again. ;D
Omg I miss nina, anyone remember her? she was peasant_girl :(, I wonder where she is.
Yeah other team members used to post here a lot, and some of them were my friends thats why I made them come here to post :P, but the problem is that not many of them are still with us, actually I can say we got like a new generation of artists and other team members going on, I so dont know so many of the new members, as well as none of them has a clue we exists.
You mean there are team members who don't know about the forum? :o
Did the team members who stopped posting leave? I assumed they just got too busy with the project :P
some have quit the team, some have just gone busy, the rest which is almost most of the current members, are new staff.
Yeah, we don't want to scare them off with our demands or anything... ;D
...But it would be nice if at least the department heads dropped by every other month to answer some or our questions (or say "suffer") ;)

Well, yonkey and I are around a lot cuz its part of our job and stuff, we are the link from outside the team to inside the team (omg hahaha, poor team :P) but at some lvl, yes we would like them to stop by and stuff, we just dont wanna push :-X
Also there is the part that not everyone likes forums :P, honestly I never used to post in any, I do here cuz Its somewhat what I do, but hahaha to be honest its -not- like Im a forum fan myself :P I LOVE MSN! (even though it suckz, but it rulez... lol whatever) :D
I prefer forums more because a lot of the people I like to talk to are across the world and in completely different time zones. Though I do use AIM to talk to friends on occasion but I hardly use it really.
hahaha well I am being honest! I've never been into forums myself I just love you all and Im here and stuff XD

I'm a big fan of forums, for the same reason oldbushie does. I can post whenever
I feel like it, to IM you both need to feel like it. Furthermore, if I post on a forum, more than one people can read it, not only the person(s) I'd be IM-ing with. Also, one can join into a discussion they did not initially start, and still be able to read all that transpired beforehand.
One-on-one conversations I either do IRL, or via e-mail.
hahaha thats perhaps why I like IM better, cuz most of the times those are your friends in your list or ppl you do happen to know and you get to contact or get contacted when something's going on, even just to drop by and say hi, Im someone who does happens to get attached and get close but with a very VERY close few ones, thats why I do prefer it.
I also enjoy this forum, I do admit I like this one a lot and I miss it, but I've got lost when I cant dedicate to it, but I so cant do that over msn for example, leave without talking with those important few ones I love, that does gets to me.

To 'just drop by and say hi' via IM, you first have to start up your computer, log on to the internet, start up the IM-program (or let it start up if it does that automatically) and only
then can you
just do that. 8)
The same is for forums...
lol!!!, wtf!!, copycat mentally posts here I guess he doesnt starts up the pc and he doesnt gets online!! :D!!!

/me mentally informs you he was merely trying to make a point to the use of the word 'just', not to make a comparison between IM and forums.
:D
/me tells copycat to leave his MSN on 24 hours a day when it's created so he can be harrassed 24 hours a day ::)
/me tells oldbushie he's behind a server, and the server isn't on 24 hours a day, so even if his pc was on 24 hours a day, running M$N (which it is not) you still could not harass him.
:(
copycat hate us :(
No,
/me hates M$.
On my new computer, the only reason why I'll have a M$ Windows version installed is as backup, if for some reason a game won't work under Linux. Why I don't have Linux installed on this pc is simple: storage space.
whatever, be that way
/me injects copycat with a sedative
There we go.... Now just type in http://messenger.msn.com/ .... ;D

Been there already, how do you think I know I could not install the latest version but would have to stick with version 5? :D
Typing in that url doesn't start downloading to. And when I'm being sedated, I can't double-click on the downloaded file to install. :suffer:
