We need more spam. Lets start a 5 ,6 and 7 word topics or how about "name this song" members post song lyrics and other members try to guess the song.
All the new members working on post count, they can go around posting smilies faces in topics.
Well I guess a Single  would be a lot better that what you Post here on the Forums.

So to add to the pointless threads on this forum, you decided to create this one xD?
There's only so many questions one can ask or answer.

... and although you have people coming to get their 100 posts, it could also mean an influx of new people into your forums, with much the same interests as you. So you can be elitist about "Dude they are invading my forums", or you could say "Hey! How are you doing?" and make new friends. Just saying. :)
You my friend must hold the title for ultimate lurker :) Join date of 2004?!! You have been a member longer than many MANY of us. but a post count of 100? About 7-8 posts a year? Welcome BACK to the forums :) I prefer to welcome new folks like you said. Hell, you should be welcoming ME though with that join date :P

I never said Pointless Threads.  Had to look this up being old school. What is the meaning of xD? x-D or xD or X-D or XD means Laughing, big grin, laugh with glasses. If you'll tilt your head to left and imagine that D is mouth then you can clearly see that somebody is laughing with his eyes closed.

sometimes its nice to just read nonsense, its good for a chuckle but as long as its in the general forum and every contest time you get a influx of names that are just here to try and win a prize, they usually go away after a few days though.
as for the membership thing, they made it so easy to qualify that it kills the point of having it, instead of it requiring just one of the listed things it should have been two or three and minimum set amount of time from the join date.

Posting should be logical, fun, and add to the forums in a good way. If anyone is making a lot of two or three word posts in order to make the 100 posts required for elite membership please let one of the mods know and we'll investigate.

It helps if you're almost never in this subforum, then what you don't know don't bother you.

Guess it depends on the post. Sometimes a short post can be useful and move a conversation forward. Other times though it's clear someone is just trying to get to the 100 posts which really isn't that hard. Just taking the time to post three things a day and you will be at 100 in no time while also taking the time to read posts and learn some new stuff. Really the information is what I get out of a forum in general. I really enjoy helping others but learn so much from them along the way.

Too deep to ponder. That's up there with. Why we park on the driveway and drive on the parkway. Why they sell round pizza in a square box with pieces that are triangles.

Not a single person on these forums can say every single post they have posted has been information or useful. At the end of the day this isn't some super serious tech forum, Just deal with the fact that its happening, if the number was higher you would simply see even more troll posts.

No, but the signal to noise ratio has decreased significantly since the 100 post qualification was implemented.
