Just a reminder for everyone ...

[CagneyDog]

I apologize if you feel this should not be posted Karen...just let me know and I'll delete it.

However, I think I reminder needs to be made to a few people in regards to posting: It's quality not quantity.

Posting up to 90 times a day is usually not neccesary and is typically just an attempt to rack up posts. I think it's awesome that these people enjoy Pet Talk, however would it be possible to just tone it down a bit? Posting so many times with less than a sentence is not needed.

And another small thing, Try not to use 6-7 smilies in one post. It just makes it confusing to read.

These people are great contributors to Pet talk, however others are getting fairly frustrated by the accesive posting, so I just figured that this thread could serve as a reminder to those that are doing this.

Posting up to 90 times a day

I totally agree. What really bothers me is when they create 90 new threads all about the same subject. Sheesh....one thread with do with updates added. Maybe this should be in the Pet Peeve thread?

[Sevaede]

I agree. Maybe a PM directly to some of the folks that you are referring to could help curb the problem?

[CagneyDog]

Yes, maybe this should be in the peeve thread. There's one person in mind that has been doing this constantly around the dog section. I've tried pm'ing her and got no answer.

I agree with this. I think constant posting of the same thing, or constant replies that say "yaaahhh" or something is totally stupid. Just my opnion, though. It seems like a waste of space, and only makes you look like your a "post hog".

Then again, this is coming from someone who's been here 2 years with less than 1000 posts. :P If everyone was like me, this wouldn't be a message board. hahaha




PS - Lindsey! Where have you been? You're no longer on AIM, I miss you! *goes to PM you right now*

90 posts a day? Who, I ask you, Who has time to do this?

I hope said person will read this friendly advice.

Or make pointless threads about stuff(not this one but I alsways see them in dog general)
Thank you for someone finallly saying something, I thought it was jsut me that it bothered. And is it just me or does it seem to be random new people who post stupid things then leave PT forever and dont bother to introduce themselves.

I agree I know someone that posts on that dog general that people are talking about also but not gonna say anything about it but some people just want to post a lot just because they want to get the most posts you can post a lot just as if they are at least a sentence or two. Not like 5 smilies, or yuuuup coool. Thanks for bringing this up.

[animal_rescue]

I definitely agree with this. It can get annoying to see people post will little or few words and like a thousand smilies as well.

^ Agreed to everything above said. I do post alot, (I have no life... Well, just alot of spare time.) but if I can't think of anything to say I normally don't post.

[Flatcoatluver]

I think one of the biggest peeves on this topic is people just posting " I agree" but that's all they type. I don't care if you agree, I want to know what you think, you can quote them and say I agree BUT TYPE MORE THEN THAT. It's a pet peeve scrolling threw all the I agrees.

But there's a difference. You're not posting pointlessly.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Exactly. That's what I was trying to say above.

[CagneyDog]

But there's a difference. You're not posting pointlessly.

Exactly. I'm mainly talking about the posts that have absolutely no point (and sometimes no relavence either).

That's another one of my peeves too Flatcoatluvr. It's just a small thing, but it really makes a difference when I'm reading a thread that just has two word (I agree) replies!
