I was curious...
Out of 143 people who posted to the list in the first half of June, 116
posted 5 times or less.
On the other hand, only 9 people (and we know who they are ;-) are
responsible for half (462) of the total 923 posts, with Dave easily the
winner...
Must be nice to have so much time to waste...
Oh, tons!
Actually I'm working 100-110hrs/wk now. I just type fast.
Speaking of time to waste, was there a point to this exercise?
A more useful
statistic might be "on topic posts." You managed to write a whopping 15 posts
(out of 100) between 6/1 and 6/15 that could be considered "on topic" for this
list (and I'm being generous.)
Is the point becoming more clear now, or shall I be more blunt?
To be fair,
?off-topic? seems on-topic here with the list being ?General Discussion: On-Topic and
Off-Topic Posts?.
From
http://www.classiccmp.org/cctalk.html:
"The general discussion list is appropriate for discussion of the
following topics:
* classic computer hardware, software, and documentation. We define
"classic" as "at least ten years old, plus or minus cool factor";
* computing in general ten or more years ago; and,
* fringe topics relevant to the pursuit of the hobby, such as
electronics, moving heavy equipment, and cleaning techniques.
...
Overly offensive or junk posts are not welcome. Please read the FAQ
<http://www.classiccmp.org/faq.html> before posting."
