What's a "life"? Like a 1-UP in videogames, right?

More like a loss of a videogame life, I'd say.

Silly of me to think aging was a continuous sort of thing.

Well, I now feel that ACS is needless. We don't need anything that may cause people to do postcount++. ;P

Am I the only one that doesn't view postcount++ as necessarily bad?

I don´t think it´s that bad if you´ve fun while posting. But I guess it depends on the content of the post too.

Posting is fun for me, but I also like seeing numbers increase for some reason. The most important thing though is that we're a community and have discussions and conversation on the board. I just get pissed off at people who are like "POST COUNT SUCKS LET'S ABOLISH IT" just because they themselves don't care about it.

Then again, threads that are only to increase post count are pretty boring. Like word associations and such.

I think I'm going to have to agree there, I only care about post count milestones myself, and not post count in general.

So it's only the large accumulations of postcount++ that matter?

Yes, that is correct.

I don't care about post count that much, I just like to throw in a random word wherever I go.

For me it depends on the content.

If you do nothing but treat a thread as an IM conversation (back and forth one-line posts, see also most of Brain Teasers with rapidfire one-person-guessing-all-the-time)... that's bad.

If you use your posts to help a thread, that's good.


Under these rules, even short posts are fine:


Is xxxxxxx some sort of yyyyyyyyy?

Yes, it is.


But even then, this is better:


Is xxxxxxx some sort of yyyyyyyyy?

Yes, it is, although it's occasionally zzzzzzzz too, depending on how you look at it. It's mostly a matter of opinion.

Yes, it is better, although it's occasionally executed horribly too, depending on how--*LATHE'D*

Post count is basically a plus to my rising activity. I went from 0.xx posts per day to 8.xx. I was even amazed at reaching 3.xx posts per day. I'm almost 2/3 of the way to reaching my amount of posts at the last incarnation. What's even more is that I got this far in less than a month, rather than 3+.

If one can help a thread, can one hurt or kill a thread? Is it unethical to harm threads?

Yes, because harming one's thread may harm the individual.

Ahh...But, what kind specifically? Are you punching it? Irradiating it? Setting it ablaze? Pushing it into an oil pool (...Why the fuck is that even there?) and THEN setting it ablaze? Stabbing? S-*Shot*

But, yea.

Some types of damage are null for the shirt, such as Blunt, which just shoves it around. Other types, like Pierce, do some near pernament damage.
Get what I'm saying? Check the damage type first, then check to see how it will affect said object.
