New nominees to the ORG

One thing I've noticed.....

all these folks getting in are people I've never seen post on here. Anyone else notice that? Name after name and its people that I don't recognize, and I'm on here several times a day and reading into every thread.

I've pretty much figured out that if you post a lot, every now and then you'll make a post that some don't see eye to eye with and that will keep you in the Sun Deck for eternity. Or until the Reds win the series and we all get grandfathered in as part of the celebration.

Totally agree, but I just have been thinking about it for a while. Obviously you care since you; 1) opened the thread and 2) posted in it.

Maybe it's a good sign that quality reigns over quantity.

And snarkyness over civility, apparently. No real need to take a shot there, in my opinion.

Re: New nominees to the ORG

Personally, when I first joined I posted in the Sun Deck as if there were no tomorrow (I think I already had like 800 posts when I joined the ORG) and I got in after about four months. I must have set a record for quickest entry into the ORG or something, and I posted constantly (it was a problem for a while)...

If you have a problem with a post, either report it to a mod (using the "Report Post" button) or take it private with the original poster.

It wasn't meant as a shot. I was just trying to point out that it's possibly a good sign if a person doesn't flood the board with posts in an attempt to make herself/himself more noticeable to voters from tORG. It's not like I named names or anything.
