Originally posted by BrowneIssue View PostTwo tables.
One is pure "who posted most to TPD".
The drivel% table was in response to those people who criticise TPDers who do not post much elsewhere. There was lots of bitterness from people in General who get hung up about post counts rather than seeing them as personal matters. They particularly targeted people who drivel lots but do not 'contribute' elsewhere.
I knocked up a spreadsheet and was amazed to discover who the worst offender was.
But then, given that 'contribute elsewhere' consists mostly of "No. Next." and "Find out for yourself, newbie", a low drivel% isn't necessarily a sign of grown up behaviour either.
Based on non-TPD posts, I am ranked at least 160th. Above unknowns such as:
Nixon Williams
Captain Jack
Wilmslow
RandyW
Bumfluff
Darren@UptonAccountants
ferret
simonsjdaccountancy
Nicky G
Peoplesoft bloke
I still think that the counting thread posts are better than 50% of posts on cuk.Comment

Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

The tables I produce are bigger than the 10K posting limit so I have to delete entries manually. The way I do it is purely based on whether i can remember that person having posted lately. Hence the bottom few entries are actually lower in the table than some I will have deleted.
I do that to encourage newbies.Comment

A very inebriated man walks into a nightclub and, after staring for some time at the only woman seated at the bar, walks over to her, places his hand up her skirt and begins fondling her. Instantly, she jumps up and slaps him silly.
"I'm sorry," the drunk stammers. "I thought you were my wife. You look exactly like her."
"Why you drunken, worthless, insufferable asshole," screams the woman.
"That's funny," he mutters back. "You sound like her, too."Comment

I was highlighting how you and Driver are unimportant, yet have both overtaken me in the past 4 days. I.e., alluding to my envy.
I had snipped the other entries to achieve other aims.
1. Xenophon clearly wants attention in TPD so I gave it.
2. Andygarbs wants a mention in stats, so highlighted him.
3. Katie is a busy newbie so ditto.
