Go hither to see a complete list of members. I see many names that I do not recognize at all.

Even more interesting, I see many names which I have not seen for a very long time. For instance: do any of you auld-timers remember WigDaddy?

Lurkers: It is a brand new day for Barbelith. Help us to welcome it: Say hello, will you not?

But do not use apostrophes.

No..if a picture is worth a thousand words and trees fall in the forest while mimes sleep with the fishes the I believe many of them are no-shot-wonders who signed up and moved on...like the incredible hulk or the littlest hobbo.

I see at least one person who will never post as long as Im here
 
 
The Apple-Picker
17:14 / 27.03.02
If you're referring to whom I think you are, she just hasn't posted here for a looooooooooooooooooooong long time.

I only lurk because I feel too dumb to comment normally. And when I try to post new threads, it all gets fucked up (ie, the transgendered voices one over in Headshop)...

Wherefore art thou, Adrian Reynolds?

(Insert obligatory "Rocky" joke here)

Speaking of which, I read somewhere they're working on Rocky 6. Isn't that the 3rd seal or something?

Anyways, back to speculating about who Bitchiekittie & theapplepicker are talking about.....

Hmmm, i notice that 1) a lot of folks still have multiple suits, and 2) at least one of the suits that seems to belong to a certain chap who shouldn't still be registered seems to have slipped through the cracks.

I like being able to see all the names, it's like reading a really cool phonebook, and thinking, "damn, I wish I'd thought of that," every other listing, like, in my case, for Ace of All Your Base.

Jack - wasn't that \/\/igdaddy? [edited to say that the "\ / \ /" doesn't look the same in this new font - grr!]

I miss Adrian. And Iao Adonai. And Frances, although s/he posts about as much as I do...

I did a little number crunching. If the figures are correct and I didn't screw up my addition then:

Top 10 posters = 20% of posts
Top 20 posters = 30% of posts
Top 40 posters = 47% of posts
Top 60 posters = 58% of posts
Top 80 posters = 66% of posts

So, less than two percent of posters account for close to a third of posts.

Two thirds of posts are by 8% of the members. That leaves the remaining third to the other 92% percent.

Eh, I didn't have anything better to do.

Wow, I'm in the top 2%. I feel like I'm wasting everyone's time.

Which is nice.

I was going to mention Frances in the hope that the mojo that got Mirror back (albeit fleetingly) might still be effective.

I only lurk because I feel too dumb to comment normally.

Post and be damned Smile, if you get flamed just rework that idea and jump back in. This place is only doing what it should when people fight their corner.
And arse to feeling dumb.
