Chance for recognition
Alright, well....
How can I put this...
I need help, a lot of help.
From all of you, or at least those who know me well.
I messaged Bart with the petition for a customized 'status', not because I'm special or anything...but just for the fact that I will
soon reach 3000 posts, and we should celebrate such ocassion.
So..I pretty much pleaded with him, once, and he simply said:
"what did you have in mind? this is not an answer."
To which I said that I couldn't think of anything good enough right now, but that I had a couple of sucky ideas...which I listed. Then he
said...
"not until you think of something better. "
So, Lividnites...I ask for your assistance on this matter.
With your help, I hope to be able to come up with the ULTIMATE status, so that I can once again make a proposal to Bart, and hopefully have my wish
granted.
No one is reaching 3000 anytime soon, so why can't I get my damn status custumized?
After all, there is this --->
Thanks guys
(blows kisses in advance to y'all)
you won't let me down...

Hey, 1000 posts. Never thought that would happen.
Anyway, since I can't think of anything good enough myself, if anyone wants to, on top of thinking of one for Dez, think of a good 1000 post
status, that would be great.

Forum Whore. Haha no...gimme some time, I could have alot of fun with this.
The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she
wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect
woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.

actually Adidas, that's not half bad... it implys so much in just a word, a symbol, a number, a name and a letter. Dez what do you think?

Um... I was told to supply a title, so I'm going to rattle off a bunch which can be fit in wherever they fit (me are word good).
Livideer
Holy Crap! This person may as well be in the band.
Suck shit, I'm at 3k!
I'm new, don't hurt me.
omgzors i r teh l33t postar!!!!!11!!!11! (maybe a 3ker, or possibly beyond)
I live in a giant bucket. (sorry, Rejected moment)
HA, Tremendous may be the Admin, but I have heaps of posts!
Livid Wannabe
And the one which would suit all people's needs...
Set it up so that people can ask for what they want when they hit a particular post count (say 1k). So they just PM Tremendous and he changes the
title to what they agree on. Of course you'd set this up so that you could do it once a year or something like that, so people aren't
changing every day or anything like that.

I like the "i'm new, don't hurt me" for all the new people. That's great. Maybe that should go away after 10 posts, or
so, seeing as most people that make it to 10+ posts tend to stay around for a little while.

i'm up for eliminating post counts completely - they just encourage people to post mind-numbing shit.

Ya.... *refer to 'point system' thread. People should be "encouraged" to make threads that have lots of posts instead of being
encouraged to just plainly post.

I know that post counts, member status's and all the junk is completely meaningless, but I don't see what's wrong with having fun
with it. If someone has 3000 posts of 500 posts and they want to be excited about it, let them.

0-30 = i'm a Lurker, dont look at me.
31-50 = Dez has PM'd me by now.
51-100 = people recognize my avatar, not my posts.
101-500 = i have only 9 spam-free posts by now.
501-750 = i'm starting to put off other things in order to make time to post.
750-1000 = i've posted my picture. i'm ugly.
1001-2000 = "member" is no longer an appropriate term for me.
2001-3000 = please post. i depend on it.
3001-5000 = hundred's of "lol"s and counting.....
50001 + = what does outside look like?
[Edited on 26-3-04 by mr. dobalina]
Amid the chaos of that day, when all I could hear was the thunder of gunshots, and all I could smell was the violence in the air, I look back and am
amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true, that three words went through my mind endlessly, repeating themselves like a broken record:
you're so cool, you're so cool, you're so cool. And sometimes Clarence asks me what I would have done if he had died, if that bullet
had been two inches more to the left. To this, I always smile, as if I'm not going to satisfy him with a response. But I always do. I tell him
of how I would want to die, but that the anguish and the want of death would fade like the stars at dawn, and that things would be much as they are
now. Perhaps. Except maybe I wouldn't have named our son Elvis.
