• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

The 750+ Posts Club

Exactly. Forum Games is a place to:

1. Get postcount
2. Be random
3. Something when you're bored

Yes, but points 2 and 3 are irrelivant to the point stated in the arguement.
Turning off post count won't actually affect being random or what you do when you're bored.
Sure it gives an idea of how much you've posted but it doesn't make you any more or less of a good user. In actual fact, turning it off might give a better idea of the "useful" input you give to the forums.
 
ah, I remember when postcount was off in forum games
good times.


but really, what does having a high postcount prove?
look at me - I don't post a lot but I'm still the best user here.
 
But this club isn't saying 'I have a higher postcount, I'm better than you all' it's just a little gathering of the Forum Game and the occasional RP freaks.

Then why not make a club about RP freaks and forum game-players. Not some slightly snobby and exclusive post count based club.

This is like the ribbon syndicate in DP except more useless. :/
 
If it's useless then why are you here. It's only a thread. You can always ignore the ribbon syndicate, you can always ignore this thread.

Same, before I started playing forum games I had 1000+
 
if you promise to not use 'randomness' like that ever again, sure
 
I'm only stating the truth.

Also, I have only about 1,500 posts in forum games, so, taking that from my total post count, still leaves me with quite a few.

Can't you people leave us to our randomness?

Stop. Just stop.

"Random" things are not funny or clever or interesting or entertaining. Saying something that doesn't make sense is the absolute lowest form of humor and entertainment. Good absurdity still takes skill.

Why can't you try to make good posts? Why can't you go learn something and then come make a thread about it and share it with the rest of us? Why can't you try to have a discussion, rather than clamoring for attention/ Why do you have to just hunt for any excuse to post something, just for the sake of having posted something?

Why can't you try to make the forums better, rather than flooding them with utter crap and then defending it?
 
Philly, you use the word "only" yet that's nearly three times my total post count.
That just prooves how much it can consitute.

Also, if I said I was only doing this to increase my total post count, you wouldn't be too pleased, would you?
 
"Randomness is a lack of order, purpose, cause, or predictability. A random process is a repeating process whose outcomes follow no describable deterministic pattern, but follow a probability distribution such that the relative probability of the occurrence of each outcome can be approximated or calculated."

Randomness is not "I'm spewing Invader-Zim-style non-sequiturs and nonsensical, in hopes that people will find it amusing because my peers are programmed to think this kind of thing is funny"

the latter is properly defined as "dumb"
 
Let's see...

... lacking a plan or purpose... no real topic of discussion...

I wonder who can make the connection, kids!

also fuck just read Eevee's post ~_~

edit: Xikaze take your nazi-loving vw-sexing ass outta here for beating me to the dictionary definition approach
 
oh okay.

WHAT wikipedia was written by people that's not a reliable source

but anyways, pseudo-randomness is dumb so you should stop and forum games is the cancer that is killing tcod. k.
