    All your other posts have been deleted because of post padding.

    Wow, 180 posts were junk. Was this a cleanup operation?

    Kudos to DP mods.

    Looking are your deleted posts, they definitely had no value.

    I'm curious though... there was a game that you found fascinating. Can you even remember what game it was or why it fascinated you so much? :)

    hmmm.... i certainly saw many people here who commented without any value, that is reproducing what they read in the preceding posts to the topic... but the same had posts like 600 and 700 sure they din got deleted... how do they survive here???????

    that's incorrect, many comments were thought before they were posted here, like the one posted on making icecream with breast milk, which i posted was like "treating women like an animal or a commercial product, selling each and every bit of her" was this junk..??? but there are wider things at play here when u own a bus u can deny anyone a trip.... Some werent of value but they were all like the preceding posts..!!!

    You see, this is post paddling! You could have edited your previous post, instead of post another one. What's the big deal of having such a big post count? Paid to post, eh? :D

    I'm guess they "survived" because you forgot to report them?

    So the mods weren't thinking when they removed your posts? :rolleyes:

    And they totaled up to 180+ posts. Those were 'some' of your posts without any value. ;)

    Mystic - I think the point is that adding posts @ a rate as fast as 2 per minute is a fair indicator you're just posting for count and have not even read anything but the thread title. If you don't take the time to read and respond to the thread, why should anyone give a rats petoot what you post? Forums are here for discussion, not your personal fluff campaign to boost your sig value.

    Be glad you did it here where all they did was remove them... most forums would've banned you on the spot.

    Put on your big girl britches, learn the lesson, move on.

    Actually I looked before they were removed, they were junk by every standard. Your friend is what's known as a spammer, and they get kicked out of forums every day of the week. I'm shocked that you weren't, so take it as a gift and only post when you have something to say in response to the thread, not in response to your need to boost post count.

    That's Forum 101. No charge for the tutoring.

    No, your posts are not being added back. And you don't need to post links to other useless posts, simply use the "Report Post" option and a moderator will take care of them for you.

    Has nothing to do with you or your account. All users are subject to the same rules. Of you don't have something USEFUL to add to the topic, it could be deleted. Why are you sp worried about your post count anyway?
