Post counts

[DMNTD:Me]

Based on the above, you could belong to any forum and only post in its Rant and Rave section. Why'd you pick KB if you know nothing about bikes and can't contribute (i.e. add value) to the conversation?

Yeah...what the hell did we do wrong?!

Why are so many of you convinced that this will drastically change the site, and the way people post?

Little will change.

R & R will still be exactly the same.

Interesting. I will wait and see.

I am wondering about the "Jokes & humour" section being affected. That does add a bit of spice to the place.

So why would it be affected? Why would the "spice" be gone?

From what I have read in this thread, it seems quite a few people have just been posting to get their post count up.... to me, that alone shows that this decision was the right one, surely its about what you contribute to KB?

Anyway.... quality not quantity is something a few on here dont seem to get.

at least now, post counts give some vague idea of how much a user actually contributes to the motorcycle world of KB as a motorcyclist about motorbikes.

vague tho'

vague tho'

But in the right direction though.... this is Kiwi BIKER.

I personally don't see what the problem is...I post for the awesome conversations I have on line with people I really like.

Some people may consider that drivel, and fair enough too, but I enjoy it. Now wether that goes into the post count or not, I don't give a hoot, I'll still have the same banter!

But it has highlighted to me that I need to make a bit more of an effort to look at more directly bike related threads and contribute somehow.

I got to admit that generally in these threads, I will do more reading than posting, as I am a self confessed ignoramus when it comes to mechanics, and am not stupid enough to post on something I know nothing about!

Me, i'm just here for the Tits'n'arse thread

[deanohit]

Meh, so what!

I do feel sorry for the people who were or almost were senior members though.

Hmm, and that seems to go hand in hand with beer as part of being a male biker.... gross generalisation here, but you get my drift.

Interesting conclusion. It is very different to the conclusion I came to.

I also don't know much about bikes, so I also do a lot more reading than posting. This change doesn't tell me that I should post more often in bike-related posts. I will still continue to read and learn. But it does mean that my post count more accurately reflects my lack of knowledge about bikes. I'm fine with that.
