    Well it seem as most of thm are been discussed wht it is said on the video.
    I really hope atleast ppl who won't watch the video will atleast read some of our posts:P:lol:
    BTW why u wanna get on to a rampage of spamming?:eek: Pretty lame!
    As I'm saying EK is a great place to get help but wht I am saying is tht u must have some kind of organized manner whn they r posting those stuff, in th way it can be convinent for the users n also it wud make the forum luks nicer too:D:D

    Ya i know it's lame. . . but the current unmoderated state is asking for it. I can do it for fun. And it's a sockpuppet. I was just wenting out my rage at what's going. Not gonna do for real :)

    Well from the balamu,tnx,nice type comments u can conclude they never read the posts or have a damn idea about where they are. I'm not critizising EK . .It's a nice place and can meet new friends and still the best place to hang around online.

    Ya some threads are like yahoo messenger or WLM as u say. actually those chat programs will be better to start a conversation like those we find here ...it's quite hard to follow what each one is saying coz of the pace of posting. Simply forums and chat progs are made for different tasks.

    Almost all the points in that video directly applies to EK.
    The only thing wrong about that video is the interpretation of Godwin's Law but that's a minor issue.

    Really Good Post Crazer. Thanks for showing it to me Rash87.

    The thing is the ones who "have" to watch it wont;)

    By the way, want to be honest about this:

    I was really mad about the post count sometime back, you would have noticed that when i boosted ma self. Now when i think about it..I feel like i was a total jobless guy:rolleyes: Thanks to god that atleast now i've realised it;)

    Another thing is that i never posted to gain popularity in the forum, it was just the "competition" like, since earlier ive knew this, if not i wont get the same respect here even though i post very rarely in particular threads.

    So even when i was in the so called "competition":P i ve given the best i can to the forum:D so im really happy about it:D

    So just as the video says at the end, be civilized and pleasant in the forum.

    The post count doesnt give u Prestige or wateva...its just the "count"

    So do something useful to the forum and get the appreciation for that without getting the "congrats" for ur "X"k posts.

    wE can Do nOthIn, coz we are just members. Excellency with no proper reaso denawa nam ithin api mak karannada..danno danithi...No hard feelings with the member...he knows that:D

    One thing we should appreciate GT for is that he has not considered the Post Count in choosing the Member of the month. Appreciate it a lot:D

    Well Godwin's law can be applied . .specially to the chat type threads here on EK . . ppl posting on them simply can't keep track of what they are discussing :)

    Prestige can't be earned by spamming... I was not critizising EK but the current state needs some attention. Coz the quality of the forum and the threads depend on the content. :)
    Ya this vid is a nice one and sums up the whole situation. :yes: :yes: :yes:

    LOL that vid sums up it all. :)

    Have to say about the sad state of this forums . . it's just infected by ppl who just want to inrease their post count. but little they realize that prestige doesn't come from postcount but the content and the respect u command among other members.
    Even on this thread the pathetic condition is bare naked for us to see. No constructive comments about the vid but just tnx or balamu.

    IMO a forum is mostly composed of fanbois of a certain idealogy and this leads to flamewars . . but it generates enough drama for others to enjoy. Can see that trend here too but constructive discussions which is the main purpose of a forum is sadly absent :(

    they forgot the sockpuppets and BTW internet is all about e-penis length. ROFL
    Right on ! :)
    nd nyc to c u bak in here :) evn im nt here xD rofl

    Leet speak is just stupid. Same as the SMS shorthand people tend to use in forums and emails.
    It just reeks of noobity and puberty.

    Does it matter!

    Hey crazer great post bro.... :)

    The lurk before posting n post count rules are rules most in EK seem to ignore alot :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately when it comes to post count they dont give a damn despite knowing the worthlessness of increasing the count for no reason :baffled:

    I've turned off signatures as well. Looking at 1 line of reply and 800x600 sig really turns me off any forums board.
