i'm as surprised as you are.

i'd like to thank unemployment.

and jesus of course.

Ned is in the lead by 1673 ahead of second place. How much do you want to bet that he will reply to this thread?

― A Nairn (moretap), Saturday, 19 October 2002 18:27 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll bet anyone $100,000 that I reply to it. Any takers?

last time i checked i was 40 something. now I'm at 28. there should be at leats 500 more posts since i did post for a while on my toronto email addy. I demand a recount!!!

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 19 October 2002 18:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Is this after the whole two years?!?!?

On one of the boards I post to, someone has accumulated 26,000 posts in a matter of months. And having 10,000+ is not uncommon.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Saturday, 19 October 2002 20:30 (twenty-three years ago)

we need a damn good spanking then. we really do.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 19 October 2002 20:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Pay attention to Melissa, Ned - you aren't posting enough.

I note that I am not in the top 50! I must try much harder. I am very acting on ILE, but don't get around these parts so much. I should get some credit for insanely long lists whenever anyone starts a C90: Songs About Rain thread or the like.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 19 October 2002 21:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Not even in the top 50. Awesome.

― hstencil, Saturday, 19 October 2002 21:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Pay attention to Melissa, Ned - you aren't posting enough.

I like to step outside every so often. And once or twice I even sleep!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 19 October 2002 21:52 (twenty-three years ago)

Hmm, I never made it. Does this mean I have a life?

― Marinaorgan (Marina Organ), Sunday, 20 October 2002 01:18 (twenty-three years ago)

I predict that the way things are going, I will be bumped back to 13 by Custos, very very soon.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Sunday, 20 October 2002 01:29 (twenty-three years ago)

One of these days I dream of being in the top 50. Sigh, maybe if I practise harder.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Sunday, 20 October 2002 01:46 (twenty-three years ago)

sean, but then you'll be in an accursed position. Post more for luck!

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 20 October 2002 01:47 (twenty-three years ago)

ooh sorry... I unintentionally lowercased you there.

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 20 October 2002 01:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Actually, 13 is my lucky number, so it won't be so bad. I may pass the pinefox soonish, anyhow, because I tend to blather way more than I should.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Sunday, 20 October 2002 02:12 (twenty-three years ago)

Shut up Sean!

How do I find out my stats?

― Keith McD (Keith McD), Sunday, 20 October 2002 03:02 (twenty-three years ago)

You can see the stats for the most active posters if you click on the "Users" link at the bottom of the page.

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 20 October 2002 05:11 (twenty-three years ago)

Keith, you can do a search of your name or email via the "search" link. It will give you your personal ILM biography, I am not sure if Graham has already added the option to see more than 100 results though...

― kate, Thursday, 3 April 2003 07:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha, if Steve and Julio carry on at this rate they'll be sniffing Raggett's perch atop the statscock in no time! That's amazing going for people who've been posting for a year at most.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 3 April 2003 07:40 (twenty-three years ago)

No wonder that I get about 20 spam mails per day if you post my email address here in public, Mark. Could you at least log out before you post the next stats, please? Thanks. :-(

― alex in mainhattan (alex63), Thursday, 3 April 2003 07:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Is therer a way for non top-50 people to find out their history?

''Haha, if Steve and Julio carry on at this rate they'll be sniffing Raggett's perch atop the statscock in no time! That's amazing going for people who've been posting for a year at most.''

and the thing is i reckon i should have at least 500 more posts added bcz I posted to ILX for three months on a canadian email account (I went there to do some research for a while).

I have actually been posting for two years now. but i think i should be on 4000 posts but never mind.

Nah, that's OK. You can leave it the way that it is. I'm not really that bothered about the statscock any more. And I honestly feel that I was a different person then than I am now, so it's probably better to leave the past in the past. But thanks for the offer.

― kate, Thursday, 3 April 2003 08:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Actually, it already does combine your addresses kate, but because you don't have an account it's showing your older address.

OK, the only way I would ever get an account is if someone else tried posting as KATE, when they know that I AM THE ONLY KATE!!! and if any other Kates try to post, they will have to use their surname, mwah hah hah hah, because I am the ONE KATE TO RULE THEM ALL!!!

Alex (& whoever else) – I’m really sorry about posting your email address here, I was just cutting & pasting from the search output & I had no idea it generated information not already available on every web page (I thought people used false email addresses in the database if they wanted anonymity, etc.) Maybe a moderator can fix my screw-up?

― Mark (MarkR), Thursday, 3 April 2003 13:05 (twenty-three years ago)

Not to bearate you, but just so you know, if you logout (ie, if you were google, or an address-harvesting spambot), all but the very start of addresses are hidden, on every webpage. Pasting them into message bodies makes doing that completely pointless.

― Graham (graham), Thursday, 3 April 2003 13:09 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah, maybe jess is too reactive, but maybe i'm over-reacting,

yet redo the list by threads started and find out who are starting all these nowhere threads

i don't start many threads because i think it should be something really worth asking, and i consider some of the voluminous recent throw-away threads to be a waste of everyone's time

why don't these recent posters check out the threads that have already happened on similar subjects ? why don't they check out the styles of threads already archived that have been popular, use their imagination and at least try to start threads that might get more than 3 replies ?

what's the big difference between say OPO, OP10, and S/D ? what point is served by such generic unimaginative posings ?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 3 April 2003 15:37 (twenty-three years ago)

hi george. you are otm. there are too many threads. and 95% of all recent threads are rubbish. either asked before, variations or simply useless. and when i start a thread (overall i do start maybe one per week) there is just one answer as my thread gets completely lost in all those other threads (or maybe because nobody is interested?).

btw george. what happened to gun club's "miami"? didn't you want to make me a copy or something?

― alex in mainhattan (alex63), Thursday, 3 April 2003 15:43 (twenty-three years ago)

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 3 April 2003 21:21 (twenty-three years ago)

just relist poster by no. of threads started, and total no. of answers to those threads
or you could do it for each poster & thread, leave it for the poster to view, moderator
etc. etc. endless possibilities

producing these sorts of stats are what computers do best, and variables could be set to kill-file certain subjects or posters, or keep average/week popular threads on screen, uh, in fact whatever users want -- using a computer to optimise the threads somewhat avoids the charges of subjectivity that have been levelled at moderaters recently, whose policies might be less controversially implemented if mediated by individuals preferences

keeping interesting content on screen is the goal, right ? revitalising old threads to suit slightly new angles on essentially the same subjects = community consensus
the search functions are the key to this community, as so much effort has been put into archiving the "collective wisdom" -- endless similar new threads _will_ alienate that collective wisdom

so, that's all i'm going to say, except that i agree with alex, in that there are far too many "vanity" threads

puerility DOES NOT ROCK

prob the first and last time that more than five ppl might agree with anything that george sez.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 4 April 2003 12:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Doesn't mean he isn't right though.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 4 April 2003 12:51 (twenty-three years ago)

oh, he's def right. and hopefully the moderators/programmers can work at implemmenting some of this in some form.

(my comment above was based on several discussions on music i had with gg)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 4 April 2003 13:21 (twenty-three years ago)

could be set to kill-file certain subjects or posters

The kill-file arguement has come up before and with increasing frequency. I think Tom gives the best defence to why they havent been desired by the powers that be but he is on sabatical right now. I know its cruel but until I have time you can find the arguement on the Shout For The Moderator Thread on the other board.

― dave225 (Dave225), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 12:55 (twenty-two years ago)

The "threads started/total posts" ratio is the key. ILM wisdom say beware of those with high post counts who never actually start threads.

― Mark (MarkR), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 14:01 (twenty-two years ago)

What kind of twisted logic is that?

No, just that I keep dropping in standing every time I look. I'm washed up. A relic.

― Mark (MarkR), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Alex, i started a thread on the new David Thomas album recently, it didn't last long. It seems i've heard people say more than once that ILM doesn't talk about the stuff they like/know/care about anymore/whenever, and i guess I don't get why people don't just start threads or revive old ones when they hear something they like or are curious about. I certainly start lots of threads on stuff that not a lot of people have heard or care about but that doesn't stop me. The thread will be there in case someone does check it out or someone new comes along. You won't know if other people are into something unless you solicit opinions. Nothing against you, alex. It just seems fairly simple.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:43 (twenty-one years ago)

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:54 (twenty-one years ago)

scott, i never saw that david thomas thread. i have to check out the new album (surf's up was phantastic). as there are too many other threads on stuff i don't care about which dominate this board. and i don't check ilm every day any more because of that. i must admit that i have been too lazy to create any new threads recently though i have been enthusiastic about a lot of music in the past months (eno/budd/fripp, bark psychosis, kings of convenience, ostinato and more).

xpost: not mean at all. just a good suggestion.

― alex in mainhattan (alex63), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Cool, Alex. Yeah, I love that new David Thomas to death. It's really good.
