Speaking of pretty pictures, you haven't posted in my P&M blog in a while

Also, I just got to 1.5k a minute ago. Nasty Nob!

**Asherian Command**

Yep. Sorry about that.

It makes nearly as much sense as people demanding that their advice be followed due to their alleged W/L/D stats in their signature.

Put them in there if you want, that's fine, but don't appeal to them as though they make you an authority figure.

I suppose I could do what Alpharius does but frankly it would bore me after awhile.

You got that right!

Besides, I'm almost at the end of... that... anyway!

Don't forget the Mod and DCM tags, as they imply massive amounts of authority in addition to post count and win/loss/draw ratio.

**Alpharius**

As already noted - post counts are irrelevant.

Some of our best posters have long 'lengths of service' and low post costs indeed.

As long as you're contributing something, and as long as you're having fun - that's what matters.

**Samus_aran115**

I honestly didn't even know about that page either

I only look at my post count..Maybe once a month or so...

I feel like 95% of my posts are either constructive or supportive, so I have no regrets or anything. I think most of my posts are compliments

**VikingScott**

Do posts really matter?
I know I post *A lot* compared to how long I've been a member but I do know only 1 post has ever had to be edited which would imply that I can't be that bad.

I do my best to give good advice but I know advice is situtational.

**BrookM**

Oh gak, I'm on the first page and yet I'm a nobody.

Oh god thats the truth. Ive had a few people in the tactics forums tell me that my advice is basically the most terrible thing I could give, and then they brag about winning 47 times with the same build. Thats fine if you really have won 47 games with BW spam. Congrats. Ive played with every unit in the Ork codex more thena few times, so yea, Id think my advice would be a little more then just one sided. That annoys me. Its gotta be THIS ARMY BUILD OR YOU SUCK!!!

**Asherian Command**

bah whos a nobody? Bah. no one is a nobody. Because you have a body!

I will have to agree with you about The Tactics Forum, good God, if you don't believe a certain model is bad, you must be a bad player. Couldn't just be that you are wired differently in the brain and make an effort to try new things.

This topic too, is becoming rather tiresome.
