    A lot of mine are NW forum specific. And BIF signup and H&H threads. But, I am surprised at my silver medal.

    Apparently my intentional usage of poor English bled into my regular writing. There, their, they’re. The English language is not for the feeble minded fucks like myself…

    Starting a thread for the sake of starting a thread is not cool. Start a thread if you are inspired to do so. Launching a bunch of threads without thought or research (i.e., has something similar been discussed in the recent past?) is not useful. It’s easy to do a search and figure out if your thread idea is unique.

    Also, why start this thread when you have launched 10 new threads in the past few days? Are you really looking for feedback?

    Remember @MUTINY? Loved that guy.

    It's 2.8 posts/day since 2015 for me. Seems excessive. Ugh.

    @Todd nailed it a number of years ago already.

    “You can never spend too much time on BA.”

    By that he meant posting, reviewing, trading and make 2000 characters posts about how Pumpkin beers are trash or the meaning of the term craft beer.

    How about a cap on Karma points after a set number of posts? Keep talking just don't get rewarded for it

    As others have said, if you're posting without substance, absolutely, yes. If you've got worthwhile things to say, by all means... Many of us come here seeking the beer-themed community and thats pretty hard to have without folks posting a lot. However, if you're just trying to hit those post and threads started karma levels a bit sooner...:rolling_eyes:

    If that's the desire, then here's my advice: If you've been here for almost a decade but suddenly post 14 new threads in less than a week, I can easily imagine a burnout of your involvement in the near future. You can try to pace yourself - and that's more for your sake than ours. Having said that, an active forum is WAY better than a dead one... and heavy posting is a positive for everyone in that regard.

    I been here for almost a decade? WOW that is shocking. Time sure flies!
    I have been a lurker. Hope my involvement doesn't die anytime, thanks for the advice.
