I'm talking about if you register a new username account, not change the name of an existing account. If I change my username for the ID #240 I will not lose my posts. (You can find the poster ID# by hovering over the "See profile" link)

People create DLs quite often, and occasionally they prefer to keep the DL - ID #24,543 (HershOstropoler) and no longer use ID #2,279 (Roland). The latter ID has a post count of 5,503 and is now restricted (doesn't appear in the members list), the former has no post count. As the ID has changed and no post count transferred from the old login to the new one, HershOstropoler appears lowly on the members list - i.e. not making the top 100. What DC has done is included Roland as he would have been on the list if it were not for the change.

Make sense?

hey Darkcloud if you are around. See my above post 2 pages earlier about my previous logins. That would definately move me high on the list. I originally came here in April or May of 1999. This login registered in Feb 2000.

DISSIDENT-

quote:
Actually I have many more posts than what you have there. I am in a demo game, and fully support civ3 for all it's faults and post and play that game.

Sorry, but I can't give you credit for posts that the forum says you don't have... if I did that- all the hundreds of people who had PCR's would be
banging at my door... If someone has received a PCR, consider not being on the list as part of your official punishment handed out by mark and dan
and if you spam to return to those levels, you'll just receive more punishemnts and fall even farther

quote:
And what do you mean by Auxiliary poster


The Aux. Posters are posters who belong on this list; but either changed their name/zeroed their own post count:
Roland, EVC, MichaeltheGreat... Or who just disappeared (Ecthelion) ... who I assume was on the list... but who I could not find because I am assuming that he was banned at the time.

quote:
If I give you the post counts of my other screen names I used before this one will you add them in?

I don't know... I might. It depends. If a lot of people start petitioning me, then no. But if you are the only one who has had them; then I will agree.
So... in the meantime... I'll add them. (there can't be more than 10 or so people in the top 120 anyway, who have done that which you have done.)
And lets see if this is the whole list of your old names... Black Bart, Dissident Agressor... were there any others? Just wondering?

BIG CRUNCH-
quote:
Must be old, a quick look at your post history show ~450 (including OT) posts since the beginning of December.

I've had more than 60 posts in the past two months though.


DC, can you shed some light on your source?

My source... HTower's early January list. Although I put my updated numbers in since I could easily check it (please don't scream... It's not as if I moved up any positions with the additions)... and I updated #120-110 with recent data.

quote:
He's probably just been working on it for a while.

True.

CHRIS 62-

quote:
Dark Cloud, do the list with OT count added, the "losers" include many people that only post OT.


Sorry, I can't, this is based on the real data.
And anyways, even if I were to search the OT posts- I wouldn't have real numbers as the OT posters have lost some to deletions... not many since we upgraded to vbboard, but some.

SKANKY-

quote:
Add a disclaimer at the top of your list:

I probably should... but as I said... this was taken from several points in time during the spam continuum.

But it was from 6/1/03... just so you know...

quote:

Also, I think some people had lost posts restored.

????? What do you mean by this? I am unclear

HTOWER-
quote:
if you check my title i'm sure you'll realize how far off that number is now

HTower- how many beeping posts can you get in a month- you posted that list about a month ago and now you have 400 more posts!
GACK!
Do you have an Area 25 up your sleeve?
The last poster who did something like that was Provost- and he had about 2000 or so in 3 months!

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Although Dissident... the more I think about it, I don't think I should do that- as Roland did much the same thing- and I put him on an auxiliary list... I'll probably be insulted whatever I chose in the end... sigh... I don't really care... but the nice thing would be to count yours- but the precedented thing would be to not count yours.

I'll have to think on it...

Puaxant Tuvip and Krushala were my actual posting names. I had Black Bart as well, but I think that is with the same account Dissident Aggressor/Dissident is on. This was back when we could change our names easily. I tried a search on Black Bart and got nothing. So I'm sure it is the same account as Dissident.

The main reason I wanted to include Krushala is that is because that is my name I first use when I came here. And I still may be on the Hall of Fame for Thinker level for SMAC. I'd have to check. I just ran up the score, but I grew bored of doing that, then I sent it in.

Any other screen names I had were just DL's and I got a PCR for them. . Like Barfasm and Fistful of Steel. Let's not forget Ass Clown.

edit: yep I'm still on the hall of fame. 660% for Krushala. Of course that's a lot easier to do on Thinker level than Transcend. But I did fairly well on Transcend level as well.
