Poman Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I believe the average ES poster's career is 3 years....The post count earned by these members is the real issue here. Hopefully, when the lockout is over, there will be new rules in place to help spread the post count more evenly around the community. We need to stop viewing ES in terms of Superstar posters, and realize that many members post far less frequently, and therefore are far less visible to the community. They are the real losers in this situation. (Maybe this just sounded funny in my own head?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say they'll spread the post count, but all there really doing is culling the membership. These additional posts have to come from somewhere. This is why they sent in the Jumbo one. You never survive to the end of that tweet to read the fine print. From 1 post through 18,000, the ESPU stands as one! When diehard returns from the wilderness, this treachery will all be over. Be strong my friend. (But if they send in the mouse, we walk. FAST! This table isn't strong enough for that.). This could be long and messy. They may take our avatars, but they can't take our freedom! (To write what we feel on the beloved B&G.). Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I didn't prepare financially for this lockout....what do I do? See if there are any spots that Eastern Motors (where your job's your credit) is currently filming. Well, assuming you're a local poster, anyway.

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Did you not get the manual about what to do? Man we're slipping up as a union now guys On it. It's this darn new ES server. It see's the word "Dallas" and redirects. God only knows what they'll install if this proposed lockout rolls ..... Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tibbidoe Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Is there any way we can organize a protest outside the ES Corporate HQ? My Grandma is a whiz with her Bedazzler, so we could have some pretty snazzy signs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrifNick21 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I propose we limit the number of posts some people get on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I propose we limit the number of posts some people get on here! Just remember that with a cap comes a floor. Sure, you can limit the number of posts by ND or LKB, but then the Mods would have to allow some people to meet a minimum posting threshold before the banhammer comes out. Do you want to give the rookies that much rope to hang themselves with? Ok maybe, because sometimes the quick flameouts are hilarious to watch.

Hitman21ST Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I dunno guys, posting here on ES is akin to modern-day slavery, you know? I mean, there are people posting at regular message boards who get treated the same way, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 *Notes management are conspicuous by their absence. Either we have them on the run by shear weight of numbers, or their in the commissioner's office selling their souls to the devil. Be on your toes brothers and sisters. If they lock the door later, who knows what we'll come back to. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
