Jaguar Tue, 6th Sep '05, 11:21pm Dude. Get a hobby. :shake:
It is kind of impressive though.
Felinoid Tue, 6th Sep '05, 11:31pm I'll continue to update it as the RBPs end and begin. I had been hoping that noone would notice this for a full day so I could put my notes right below the times, but I wasn't really expecting it. So here goes:
Longest lasting RBP ever: the original "Doh" post by Slappy lasted 80 days, 11 hours, and 10 minutes (despite the handicap of a 300-post limit as compared to our 500-post limit today).
Shortest lasting RBP ever (so far): RBP #54 lasted only 6 days, 13 hours, and 4 minutes!
Most posts in an RBP: 581 in RBP #53 (BTA was not happy...)
Most edits to a single post: 5 distinct edits by Ara on page 10 of the Non-spam Spam Post
Most posts on a single page: 12 by Jaguar on page 22 of RBP #19 (13 is the theoretical max!)
Total posts (as of the end of RBP#93): 50,620

The Magpie Tue, 6th Sep '05, 11:33pm I think SP is Fel's hobby...
Still, it's an impressively well-organised and researched list. You're not dodging coursework, are you Fel? I know I'd do anything to avoid work, but jeez... Have you been through the housework stage yet? :shake: ;)
Felinoid Tue, 6th Sep '05, 11:46pm Hey, I started putting this together more than a month ago in my spare time, and I'm still not done with it. I had expected to be by the time the last RBP (#43) closed, but there seems to be an alarming increase in the speed of posting. ( :hmm: I wonder if that could have anything to do with me? ... Nah. :shake: )
Harbourboy Wed, 7th Sep '05, 12:09am There's nothing better than meaningless SP statistics! :thumb:
kuemper Wed, 7th Sep '05, 12:15am Well, I'm doing my best to catch up with Felinoid. I'm about half of his total postings thus far.
Arabwel Wed, 7th Sep '05, 11:02am I believe it is missing the original "the official "duh! Nothing new's been posted"" post by Slappy....
Good job, Fel :D
Shrikant Wed, 7th Sep '05, 12:41pm How about giving us more such stats Felinoid? For example, who babbled the most in the just concluded RBP? Or in any other.
There, another project to usefully spend your time on :grin:
Ofelix Wed, 7th Sep '05, 1:05pm twelves day? Oh my... People didn't spam as much back in the days...
Well How about the a list of active spammer in those RBPs (those with more than one post) to see who spam the most?
Or the one with the most typo/gramatical error (Ara come to mind :) ) or the one who make the longest post ( Chevalier come to mind :) , seriously someone ought to make resume of his post)
jaded empath Wed, 7th Sep '05, 1:16pm Hmmm, that bears investigating - which RB thread had the most/fewest different posters; which poster was most frequent in any one thread/all threads; mean #of posters/thread; mean #of posts/poster; etc. etc.
If you're taking a stats course, you could maybe even use this little study as an extra-credit assignment or something... :D
Felinoid Wed, 7th Sep '05, 8:24pm Thanks for the info, Ara. :thumb: I'll do some more research when I've got some time.
Lazy Bonzo Wed, 7th Sep '05, 11:22pm RBP #19 the most posts, and whose was the last post? Mine, now I feel like a spammer :( :p
Kitrax Thu, 8th Sep '05, 4:19am For example, who babbled the most in the just concluded RBP? Or in any other. That's a simple answer - Arabwel! :p :p :p
Could you add the actaul RB thread numbers to the rights of the dates? :rolling:
Felinoid Thu, 8th Sep '05, 4:33am The PfRB,PwSS only goes up to six and NsSP never needed numbers. The RBPs are in blocks of ten, so I thought that would be rather easy to figure out. :hmm: I'll try something out; let me know what you think.
On a side note, I think it's interesting to note how the record for shortest RBP was set for over a year after BTA threatened to shut them down permanently when he closed #11.

reepnorp Sun, 11th Sep '05, 9:24pm Wow, the actual Random Babbling Posts have been around for exactly one week more than me! It's hard to believe I've already been here for three years.
Felinoid Sun, 11th Sep '05, 9:44pm I've added three newly found threads to the beginning (thanks again, Ara!) and have some more stats to impart. Looking in the first ten threads (all the pre-RBP ones) for the current top six posters, I found:
Taluntain - 96 posts
Chevalier - not around yet
Harbourboy - not around yet
BTA - 18 (half of which were admonitions to go to the chatroom for simple back and forth)
Arabwel - 116 posts
Ragusa - 61 posts
Skimming through the posts I was tallying, I discovered an astonishing fact; Ragusa used to be fun! :eek: WTF happened?!?
Nakia Mon, 12th Sep '05, 12:44am Maybe Ragusa grew up and became and adult. :rolleyes: Horrors! Adults always take things too seriously.
So back in the early days Ara was Queen of the Random Babble even without Broadband? Now that she has broadband it's no wonder the RBP fills up so fast. :D
Arabwel Mon, 12th Sep '05, 12:50am I blame SP for getting kicked out of 3 schools! I spent all my time here :D
Ofelix Mon, 12th Sep '05, 1:26am I'm sad that I'm in no stats whatsoever. What is the impression I give to other people on SP I wonder?
Arab didn't have Broadband in the days and yet she spammed so much?! That is a feat of (internet) strenght indeed.
Felinoid Mon, 12th Sep '05, 1:49am Well, I didn't go looking for you. If you'd like me to include you on the list, just let me know. BUT FIRST, I'd like to put a minimum 20-gem (1200 posts) limit on anyone who wants to be included. This is to help ensure that I won't just be chasing my tail with some prankster who only posted to the RBP a couple of times.
Harbourboy Mon, 12th Sep '05, 1:57am Be included on what list?
Laiwethel Mon, 12th Sep '05, 2:02am *blinks*
I think most of my post count is in RB, but I am still not at 20 gems....
Felinoid Mon, 12th Sep '05, 2:22am @HB:
:lol: You're already on it. It's the list of who I'm looking for when I skim through the RBPs to tally.
@Lai:
Ummmmmmmmmmm, okay 16 gems (800 posts), but that's my final offer! ;)
Laiwethel Mon, 12th Sep '05, 3:18am :lol: That works.
Ofelix Mon, 12th Sep '05, 3:22am Grear count me in too I'm 22 gems so I'm okay!
Plus I registed in 2002, so I'm from an old generation (or so I think I am ... )
Nakia Mon, 12th Sep '05, 5:36am I don't post that much in RBP so I imagine my statistic would be in the 'fewest' post count. But don't bother Felinoid I hate being a statistic. :hippy:
Harbourboy Mon, 12th Sep '05, 5:45am Is this only the list of posts made in pseudo-RBP before RBP started?
Felinoid Mon, 12th Sep '05, 6:25am @HB:
So far. I'm currently doing RBP #1-10 right now (only three more threads to skim!), and I'll update this post as soon as I'm done.
EDIT: HB's comment below notwithstanding...
counts from just RBPs #1-10:
Taluntain - 88
chevalier - 191 (prolific little ...)
Harbourboy - hasn't noticed it yet
Blackthorne TA - 18 (again)
Arabwel - 352!
Ragusa - 48
Ofelix - 7
Laiwethel - not here yet
When I finally finish through #40, I'll post the totals on the first page.

Harbourboy Mon, 12th Sep '05, 6:38am What!? You're going to count up everybody's posts from every Random Babbling thread?! That's just plain crazy.
Aikanaro Mon, 12th Sep '05, 8:23am *Agrees*
Have you nothing better to do? :p
Well, I probably have plenty of RB posts if you feel like looking...
Ofelix Mon, 12th Sep '05, 2:48pm :nuts: But it's interresting to see how it turn. But hey? My dear cat-man-ish person ever thought of studying Statistic and going for a statistician job? You already have the interrest.
Edit: It's odd, I didn't remember I posted in RBB 1-10, I thought I begun in like #19... :hmm:
Felinoid Mon, 12th Sep '05, 5:14pm @Aikanaro:
Don't worry, I noticed your numerous posts and you're in line for run-through #2 with (Sir) Yerril. 8people is in run-through #3.
@Ofelix:
You started in RBP#7, but you weren't posting very often. (7/~2050)
Note: To still be eligible for the current run-through (#1), you must have registered August '03 or later. Others will be assigned to later run-throughs, which are limited to two members apiece for simplicity. Alternatively, you could just count them up yourself, but I doubt anyone except me has that kind of time. :shake:

Harbourboy Mon, 12th Sep '05, 10:19pm Hmm, I haven't made it on to the table yet. I wonder when I make my first RB appearance.
This is strangely interesting.
Harbourboy Thu, 22nd Sep '05, 9:56pm Where's an update on this then, Felinoid? Now that you've started, we want to see the results!
Jaguar Thu, 22nd Sep '05, 10:06pm Yeah. I want to know when I dazzled SP in RB with my presence.
Morgoroth Thu, 22nd Sep '05, 10:10pm I think my first RBP was to present my new avatar to the public, I don't think I posted anything in there before that. I haven't been posting a lot there anyway since let's face it, the place is mostly for spammers. :p
Felinoid Fri, 23rd Sep '05, 7:32pm Well, Jag, it looks like you made it in under the wire. :grin: I'll add you to the list for the current run-through.
@HB:
Been kind of busy lately with school, but I'll try to get back to it by this weekend.
Felinoid Tue, 27th Sep '05, 5:57am Post counts in RBPs #11-20:
Taluntain - 46
chevalier - 419
Harbourboy - 73
Arabwel - 305
BTA - 13
Ragusa - 6
Jaguar - 89
ofelix - 210
Laiwethel - Hasn't noticed it yet
Jaguar started in the middle of RBP #18, and HB started almost exactly 500 posts later. Spooky. :grin: Jag also made the record books; check the first page (third post).

Harbourboy Tue, 27th Sep '05, 7:10am Ah, good work Felinoid. Glad to see that I am not responsible for a large portion of random babbling. So far.
Felinoid Tue, 27th Sep '05, 7:43am @HB:
Yes you are. :p Keep in mind that your 73 posts covered only one-and-a-half RBPs. That's 73/~760 which is almost 10%. Even the ever-spamming chev only had 8%, and Ara (who disappeared toward the end) only had 6%. Even Jaguar (who had every other post on one page) only had 89/~1270, which is 7.5% IICC.
Arabwel Tue, 27th Sep '05, 10:20am Yeah, I disappear quiote a lot in the middle; I have been forced to spend months at a time away from SP, as you can see from my postcount.... if the average amount of posts/day from the last year of unlinmited (mostly) internet access is applied to the time I've spent here, you see I am about 3K short :p
:angel:
Harbourboy Sun, 2nd Oct '05, 9:12pm When's the next update, Felinoid?
Ofelix Sun, 2nd Oct '05, 9:16pm Post counts in RBPs #11-20:
Taluntain - 46
chevalier - 419
Harbourboy - 73
Arabwel - 305
BTA - 13
Ragusa - 6
Jaguar - 89
ofelix - 210
Laiwethel - Hasn't noticed it yet
Hey I'm the third best poster. Mmm did I had a RL back then? :hmm:
Felinoid Sun, 2nd Oct '05, 10:40pm I suppose I ought to get back to it. Just as soon as I whine about the reason I'm taking a break from BG2 for a while (in the proper forum, of course).
Okay, here are the counts for RBP#21-30:
Taluntain - 54
chevalier - 441
Harbourboy - 198
Arabwel - 370
Blackthorne TA - 9
Ragusa - Seems to have disappeared into the Alleys
Jaguar - 300
Ofelix - 54
Laiwethel - 218

Felinoid Tue, 4th Oct '05, 8:31am Post counts for RBP#31-40:
Taluntain - 70
chevalier - 354
Harbourboy - 185
Arabwel - 625!!! :eek:
Blackthorne TA - 3
Ragusa - 7
Jaguar - 209
Felinoid - 50
Ofelix - 101 dalmations, I mean posts
kuemper - 14
Laiwethel - 134
EDIT: Looking at the totals (now posted just below the records), it's clear that chev and Ara are indeed the king and queen of spam! I've decided to drop Yerril from run-through #2 (since he seems to have disappeared) in favor or 8people. So both spots are currently open for #3; get 'em while you can. :D
[ October 04, 2005, 08:53: Message edited by: Felinoid ]
Arabwel Tue, 4th Oct '05, 9:37am Well, damn... never thought it was that much :p
Ofelix Tue, 4th Oct '05, 2:49pm Ofelix - 101 dalmations, I mean posts Yeah I wasn't really in the mood eh? :rolleyes:
Harbourboy Tue, 4th Oct '05, 9:02pm Wow, Arabwel and Chevalier are out in front by miles! Look at what their total post counts would be without RBP.
I'm still surprised that I am 4th, given that I thought I didn't post much in RBP.
Bion Tue, 4th Oct '05, 9:08pm How 'bout retitling this thread to: "The Spammer Hall of Shame" :shake:
Arabwel Tue, 4th Oct '05, 9:25pm Well, I HAVE been posting to the RBPs for 4+ years... :p
Harbourboy Tue, 4th Oct '05, 9:42pm RBP wouldn't be RBP without you.
Shell Tue, 4th Oct '05, 10:44pm surely i've posted more than 14 posts in rbp?
Felinoid Tue, 4th Oct '05, 10:57pm @Shell:
:D Does somebody want in?
Deathmage Wed, 5th Oct '05, 4:31am I'm strangely curious as to how many posts I have in the RBP, as well, considering I generally ONLY post there...
Felinoid Thu, 3rd Nov '05, 9:03pm Totals are up for 8people and Aikanaro now, and I'll be starting into the RBPs past #40 now for everyone. My next update will be when I'm done with #50.
Harbourboy Thu, 3rd Nov '05, 9:11pm Hmm, no surprise that two people have more RBs than the next 5 combined. I expect to see kuemper and Felinoid racing up the chart by the time the next stats come out.
By the way, excellent work, Felinoid.
Felinoid Wed, 16th Nov '05, 3:14am Okay, so I lied. I got bored with the same old same old and decided to do something different for a change of pace. So I checked the total post counts for each of the threads, and now we have a grand total of 28,770 for the first 60 threads (from "Doh" to #50). And all of SP rejoiced, for their words had counted for something (specifically, one). ;)
I still got #47-#50 to parse for individuals, but I'm nearly there. :)
Harbourboy Wed, 16th Nov '05, 4:17am Fascinating. I have now plummetted to 7th on the all-time RBP list. Still means approximately 10% of my posts are worthless spam in RBP which still seems a bit high but never mind.
Rotku Wed, 16th Nov '05, 9:03am Yeah HB, you're nothing but a worthless spammer :p
I think only 10% is pretty low. Look how high percentage some of these people will be on! I mean, look at Felinoid! He's been here 5 months and already has more posts than me ;)
Felinoid Sun, 20th Nov '05, 8:06pm And so it came to pass that Felinoid finished his tallying of the first 60 threads. Even though more RBPs lurked on the horizon, waiting to be both created and counted, he knew that the most difficult task had been accomplished. The future of the babbling community was bright indeed. :roll:
Harbourboy Sun, 20th Nov '05, 8:27pm Hmm, I'm now down to 8th on the all time RBP list. Nice work, Felinoid. This has been very interesting. Now, go get a life.
Arabwel Sun, 20th Nov '05, 8:40pm so this makes it official - Hail to the Queen! :D
:banana:
Barmy Army Sun, 20th Nov '05, 8:41pm pml :lol:
Uytuun Sun, 20th Nov '05, 9:29pm Hmm? Numbers everywhere. Strange cat you are, Felinoid. :p
kuemper Sun, 20th Nov '05, 10:58pm Yay, I'm on the list.
Ofelix Sun, 20th Nov '05, 11:02pm Mmmm I'm interested to see the further details sir Kitty. have you other SP statistic?
Felinoid Mon, 21st Nov '05, 1:30am Now, go get a life No. :p
@Ara: What's also official is that you would still have a glittering beljuril if not for RB. :shake:
@Barmy: :confused: What's "pml"?
@Uytuun: You know, if you want on the list, that can be arranged. Now that I've gotten completely caught up, I can do another run-through to add to the list.
@kuemper: Of course you're on the list, dearie, I wouldn't dream of excluding you. (Besides, if you ever overtake me, I'll have something to point at for "you're only ahead because you're a bigger spammer than me". :grin: )
@ofelix: Like what?
Disciple of The Watch Mon, 21st Nov '05, 1:41am Impressive, Big Cat. I just discovered I was on the list :eek:
Barmy Army Fri, 25th Nov '05, 11:54pm Fel, 'pml' = pissing myself laughing. It's a British 'lol' :p .
Shrikant Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 7:44pm Now that I have restarted spamming the RBP, care to tell me my stats cat?
I promise a spool of thread with a tail sticking out :p
Saber Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 7:58pm Hmm, Fel, what is the minimum limit that you need to be posted here? I mean, before you said the person needs at least 800 posts to be counted as regular, but, I mean, I'm here almost everyday, and I only have 500 posts. Of course, I've not posted nearly as many RBPs as any of the rest of you, but in the last 4 or 5, I most certainly have a few. Anyways, I didn't mean to sound angry, I was just wondering the reason behind the "800 post minimum"...
BTW, if it isnt too much trouble, could you please send me my stats? I think I have quite a few, but I'm not sure...
Felinoid Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 8:08pm Okay, you two can be in my next run-through (#4, I believe). :) Shrikant's got enough posts, and I've been thinking about adding Saber due to his recent posty-ness, so that's not a problem; getting it started sooner could even make less work for me in the future. (I'll finish up Deathmage's measly count while I'm at it. :grr: )
Anybody else want to sign up after them? Run-throughs 5 and up still have all spots open! :D
Disciple of The Watch Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 9:05pm 11 more posts and I take Tal's place in the post totals :p
Undertaker Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 9:14pm Keep up the good work :thumb:
Uytuun Sat, 3rd Dec '05, 9:57pm Sure, put me in. :)
Harbourboy Sun, 4th Dec '05, 11:03pm Keep up the good work, Felinoid. These stats do make interesting reading. Maybe you add a column for "% of total post count" or something as well.
Kitrax Mon, 5th Dec '05, 11:29am Hmmm...I'm not saying that I don't spam, but I'd say that my RB post count is probably around 50-100. I'm actually kind of curious as to the exact number, but I'm waaaaaay too lazy to actually scroll though all those threads and pages to count them all.
Maybe you could help me out Fel... :thumb: :rolling:
Felinoid Mon, 5th Dec '05, 7:35pm That's all right Kitrax, I think I can squeeze you in run-through 5 with Uytuun and Darkstrider (he signed up via PM). Any takers for run-through 6? :)
Undertaker Mon, 5th Dec '05, 7:59pm Me of course :p
kuemper Mon, 5th Dec '05, 8:03pm Me, too. Might as well see how much more spamming I've done.
/jumps on bandwagon
Felinoid Mon, 5th Dec '05, 8:12pm @Undertaker:

You're in 4, the current one.

Thanks for doing it though! :thumb: :rolling:
kuemper Tue, 6th Dec '05, 5:47am You mean I have to look at the first page *again*? :lol: This marilith's lazy. No wonder I have such a fat tail.
Disciple of The Watch Tue, 6th Dec '05, 10:58pm Hey, Math Cat, did I dethroned Tal in the list? According to your stats, I was but a few posts behind...
Felinoid Wed, 7th Dec '05, 2:02am @DotW:
Probably. :shake: But I don't tally an RBP until it's finished, and I'll likely save #53 until I'm done with run-through 4 anyway.
Disciple of The Watch Wed, 7th Dec '05, 3:38am @Big Cat: Great. Keep us informed, Math Cat... :rolling:
Felinoid Sun, 11th Dec '05, 5:58am Saber, Shrikant, and Deathmage's counts are all in, and everything is current through the end of #53, which had a record-breaking number of posts at 581 (580 replies to the first post). Hopefully this will satiate the extra-spammy members on our boards for a little while.
Arabwel Sun, 11th Dec '05, 6:11am Damn, we babble a lot :D
Disciple of The Watch Sun, 11th Dec '05, 6:12am :eek:
I'm 54 posts ahead of Tal!
Hehe... uh-ho. :mommy:
Harbourboy Sun, 11th Dec '05, 9:22am Woo, I'm 8th, soon to become 11th.
Undertaker Sun, 11th Dec '05, 11:13am I wonder how much I have spammed, I mean posted!
Kitrax Sat, 24th Dec '05, 8:47am HB, with your post count, I don't understand why you're not #1 already...although, all that spamming in the BG2 forums helped out too... :shake:
Where am I at now? :rolling:
Harbourboy Sat, 24th Dec '05, 9:37am Kitrax, because I don't post that much in RBP. And I don't know why you still think I post a lot on BG2 because that was only for that one run-through I did. I post in IWD2 and NWN more than in BG2.
Felinoid Sat, 24th Dec '05, 4:27pm @Kitrax:
At the bottom of the third post there's a "Counts in Progress" area. I do the RBs five or ten at a time, and update the post whenever I do.
@HB:
You've got more than 6500 posts, dude. Misconception comes with the large number.
Shrikant Mon, 26th Dec '05, 1:10pm Here is to cleaning up a few misconceptions about spammers:

Harbourboy Mon, 26th Dec '05, 3:10pm Interesting stuff, Shrikant. I never knew that there was someone more devoted to RBP than Arabwel!
Shrikant Mon, 26th Dec '05, 3:32pm I was surprised to see both Felinoid and kuemper score such low percentages. Looking at the rate of their posting, one would have believed that they have spent a lot of time in the RBP.
Like the noob spammer Disciple of the Watch :nono: Learn from these two DotW! Creative and versatile spammers the both of them :shake:
Undertaker Mon, 26th Dec '05, 3:36pm Interesting stuff, Shrikant. I never knew that there was someone more devoted to RBP than Arabwel!If you look at the percetage, then yes. But Ara has almost 2500 posts in RBP :D No one can beat her, she's the queen of SPAM :tie:
*whisper* I wonder how do I look on this statistic?
Disciple of The Watch Mon, 26th Dec '05, 7:13pm Noob spammer?!? I've been here since August '05 and I have 1145 posts, that's a lot of spam... and according to my calculations, I have an average count of 229.6 posts per month, and I should reach 2700 posts by august, so if I keep spamming that much, while you, Shrikant, have an average of 68.36 per month, or 820.33 per year, so NYAH! :p
kuemper Mon, 26th Dec '05, 7:20pm Shrikant's table just goes to show that I take the time and effort to post interesting spam and not just chat to other SPers. :tie:
Makes me wonder how the percentages would be reversed comparing and contrasting the other fora with RPB. I'm sure my percetange is quite high in BG2.
DarkStrider Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 1:50pm Hey there big cat I thought I was included in this run-through ?
Felinoid Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 5:43pm @DS:
You are, but I'm only up to #45 and you haven't posted yet. I'm sure you'll spike when I do my next skim, though. :grin:
DarkStrider Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 6:00pm Oh dear I'm beginning to dread this especailly when/if Shrikant adds me to his stats... :mommy:

There; happy now?! :p
DarkStrider Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 8:17pm Yes thank you :D
Undertaker Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 8:28pm And me? What about me?
Felinoid Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 10:00pm @Undertaker:
Boy, you are impatient, aren't you? :shake: I'm pretty sure I told you before in an RB, but I'll lay it out again here. First, I have to finish the current run-through with Kitrax, Uytuun, and Darkstrider. Then, I'll tally you and Saber up (through RBP #53) in the next run-through. And finally I'll tally up RBPs #54 & #55 (and probably #56 by then) for everybody.
Saber Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 11:04pm Tal do you actually go through in count each thing, or did you write a program to identify the name of each person, and it identifies how many times it has been used as a poster, or something like that?
Harbourboy Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 11:41pm Good work (again), Felinoid.
Saber - why did you call Felinoid "Tal"?
olimikrig Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 11:43pm Saber - why did you call Felinoid "Tal"? :shake:
Kitrax Tue, 3rd Jan '06, 11:51pm Holly crap...I'm already over 300? :eek: I didn't think I spammed that much. :rolleyes:
Oh well...I guess I'll continue the Spam God's work. :bigeyes: :rolling:
Felinoid Wed, 4th Jan '06, 1:55am @Saber:
I personally go through and count them. And to anticipate your next question: yes, I'm completely insane. :shake: But it doesn't take as long as you think, and I can still do other things on the computer at the same time I'm skimming (though at a slower rate than if I weren't skimming).
EDIT:
Okay, run-through 5 is complete, and the counts for Kitrax, Uytuun and DarkStrider (through RBP #53) are all up. Run-through 6 with Undertaker and Saber will be next.
[ January 04, 2006, 02:37: Message edited by: Felinoid ]
Kitrax Wed, 4th Jan '06, 4:56am So...Fel, on your "run throughs" do you update everyone else that you have a count for already? :confused: :rolling:
Felinoid Wed, 4th Jan '06, 5:17am @Kitrax:
No, I keep tallying new RBs separate from tallying new counts. You'll notice that it only says (current through #53) at the moment, which means I haven't counted anyone's posts in 54 or 55 yet. When I've got everyone up to the same spot, then I go through new RBPs and count everyone on the list. When I do a run-through, I'm just getting the new names on the list up to speed with the others.
TBH, I'm not sure which will come first: run-through 6 or catch-up for RBPs #54 & #55. Probably the former on account of Undertaker's chomping at the bit. :shake: Also, it shouldn't take too long since I would only have to go back a year into the RBs instead of all the way back to the beginning. That's 40 threads I won't have to skim. :cool:
Harbourboy Wed, 4th Jan '06, 8:18pm I expect to be overtaken by at least 4 people by the time you next update the list.
Felinoid Wed, 11th Jan '06, 3:17am Undertaker and Susipaisti's counts (through #53) are up now, and I can finally start tallying up the latest RBs. Hopefully I'll have all the counts updated by the weekend.
Harbourboy Wed, 11th Jan '06, 3:18am We can't wait!
Kitrax Wed, 11th Jan '06, 4:52am I'm right where I need to be...right in the middle section. Not too much spam like Ara and Chev, but not too little Like BTA or Deathmage.
So...meh. :rolling:
Arabwel Wed, 11th Jan '06, 6:35am I am pretty sure I need to get back in gear and start contributing more.... been SO lazy about the RBPs lately.
Disciple of The Watch Wed, 11th Jan '06, 6:43am I admit I haven't spammed much those last weeks... but this isn't a competition :p
Undertaker Wed, 11th Jan '06, 7:14am Hm, only 262 RBPs. That doesn't make me a big spammer :p
Felinoid Wed, 11th Jan '06, 7:33am I am pretty sure I need to get back in gear and start contributing more.... been SO lazy about the RBPs lately. I admit I haven't spammed much those last weeks... but this isn't a competition Keep in mind that all the counts are about a month old right now. But I hope to rectify that soon.
Hm, only 262 RBPs. That doesn't make me a big spammer Actually, it does. :p That's out of 7 RBs, making it about 35 per 500-post RB; 7% of the RB is damn near Ara-ness (she's usually around 8%). :grin:
Susipaisti Thu, 12th Jan '06, 12:17am Oh my, 148. Out of my total that's almost 19%. :mommy: I'm getting corrupted by the devilish forces at play in this place.
Undertaker Thu, 12th Jan '06, 7:19am @Fel: but those 262 posts are huge minority compared to my total post count :p
Felinoid Thu, 12th Jan '06, 5:48pm That's because I'm not finished yet. :p Your current number is probably around 400.
Undertaker Thu, 12th Jan '06, 8:25pm That leaves more or less 1000 non spam posts :p

Saber Fri, 13th Jan '06, 1:23am My spamming has declined the last two weeks, but I'm back. Those 148 posts will increase tenfold! (Or something like that)
Harbourboy Fri, 13th Jan '06, 1:28am Ha ha ha, that's quite funny, dmc.
Disciple of The Watch Fri, 13th Jan '06, 1:33am That's what happens when speaking of an interesting subject, nontheless...
Nakia Fri, 13th Jan '06, 1:34am :) @dmc, if we start counting all the non RB spam posts I must admit that even I would have at least a few hundred.
Disciple of The Watch Fri, 13th Jan '06, 7:00am I hate to say it has come to this, Big Cat, but I am the closest one on your tail...
Harbourboy Fri, 13th Jan '06, 9:41pm Kuemper is just about to overtake me and Felinoid is not far behind. What other useful statistics can someone think of analysing?
Ofelix Fri, 13th Jan '06, 9:53pm Meh I'm pretty sure almost all my post are in RBB. Can you verify that dearest Cat? pleeeeeaaaassssse?
Felinoid Fri, 13th Jan '06, 10:10pm @HB:
Actually, you and kuemper were even a month ago (as the latest tally indicates), so no doubt she's overtaken you already, as have I most likely. DotW shouldn't be too far behind right now either. ;)
@Ofelix:
The tally up through #54 puts you at 859 RB posts, as you can see if you check the third post of the thread. Likely by now you've surpassed even Aikanaro and 8people due to their comparatively low rate of posting, putting you in the third spot right behind Ara and chev. You may safely consider yourself the Prince of SPAM. :hahaerr:
I'll see if I can get through #55 this afternoon (before the weekend), but I make no promises and even that would not bring us current, with #56 left to do and #57 likely finishing soon.

No luck on #55; I've gotta get some stuff ready before I leave for the weekend. So long, suckers! :outta:
Disciple of The Watch Sat, 14th Jan '06, 1:34am Ofelix, the Prince of Spam. Heh. Congrats, dude. Does that mean we'll have to assist a Spam Wedding soon? Count on me to bring some vintage alcohol. Count on my father to bring vintage cigars :p
Hey, Big Cat, is every male Spammer on the list entitled to choose a Lady of Spam ? (with the consentement of the said Lady, of course)
kuemper Sat, 14th Jan '06, 3:50am I'm doing my best to get past HB. I think he got a really good ISP and that's why he's posting so much. Either that, or he's hogging up comp time at work like everyone else. :p
EDIT: :yot: I went through Random Metal Babbling to find out how bad Undertaker is there: 74 posts, a good 25.6%. DotW, in comparison, has: 43, 14.8%.

Felinoid Sat, 14th Jan '06, 4:33am @DotW:
Um, no. Really it's the ladies who should be choosing since there's less of them than there are of us. But mostly it has to do with the tallies. Aik and 8 keep their counts so close together that it seems like there's something going on, and kuemp and I have been in cahoots for a while now. And of course Ara and chev are the Queen and King of SPAM by sheer volume. :D But if you can find somebody...whatever.
@kuemper:
*sniff sniff* I do believe I smell a Music Babbling History thread coming on, if you've a mind to make one. :hmm: T'would be much simpler to keep track of it from the get-go than to have to go back years some day. Think about it. :)
Undertaker Sat, 14th Jan '06, 11:57am @Fel: well it would be easy cause there still is ONE Random Metal Babbling :p

Disciple of The Watch Wed, 18th Jan '06, 5:42am Well, now that she's back in black, and if she gives her approval, I choose shadow lurker as my Spam Princess, even though she isn't in the Spammer Hall of Fame.
:banana:
Harbourboy Fri, 20th Jan '06, 6:33am I see that I have fallen to 9th on the RBP list but will soon by down to 11th, you bunch of dirty spammers.
Felinoid Fri, 20th Jan '06, 6:48am Okay, this has gone on long enough. HB, you are one of the worst spammers I have ever seen; worse than even Ara. All this thread counts is posts in the RB, where most of us actually have something to say. But you never do. All you do is respond to other people's posts and then complain that the RB has gotten too chatty.
If we were to count actual SPAM (in all threads, not just the RBs), your number would likely be around 4K by now. ;) But not even I have the kind of time it would require to look at every thread in the archives to find your posts that added absolutely nothing. Meanwhile, most of the rest of us would have our numbers actually decrease since most of our RB posts wouldn't count.
That said (in jest, of course :D ), you're at number 9 and have been there for a while. In fact, you almost made it back up to 8 when you bypassed Lai, but DotW blasted up past both of you. And seeing as you've been posting twice as much as me in the RB lately (and certainly more than Lai), you're not likely to be pushed down to double-digits too soon. :p
Especially seeing as the count is now current! :banana:
Disciple of The Watch Fri, 20th Jan '06, 7:56am :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
I really spam *THAT* much?!?
TAKE THAT, Harbs!
Dave the Magic Turtle Fri, 20th Jan '06, 10:54am Hmmm...interesting, I probably have about 5 posts in RB :D I don't spam much...honest :p
kuemper Fri, 20th Jan '06, 3:11pm Magic turtles are busy doing ...magic... things. :grin: BTW, lemme rub your shell for a second...
Dear Mystra (the goddess, not #sorcerer bartender),
I would like a rocket and a kitten and an ISP outage for DotW. ;)
I'm doing other things that take away from RBP posting.
Saber Fri, 20th Jan '06, 3:13pm I have one third of DotW's spam, and he's been here one third the time I have :lol:
Harbourboy Fri, 20th Jan '06, 8:39pm All this thread counts is posts in the RB, where most of us actually have something to say. But you never do. All you do is respond to other people's posts and then complain that the RB has gotten too chatty. Somebody has to do the responding, so people know that the 'something' they 'actually' have to say, is 'actually' being read by someone.
And I'm not complaining that the RB has got too 'chatty', more that it is full of rubbish that seems to get spewed out at an astonishing rate - which prompted Tal's 'bloody spammers' warning at the start of the last RBP.
Disciple of The Watch Fri, 20th Jan '06, 9:53pm Now, now, kuemp, this isn't a competition. I don't really mind about my position in the Spammer Hall of Fame, to be honest.
But your wish will be granted, as I am switching ISPs next month, and I might be MIA for a while. We'll see what happens.
Saber Sun, 22nd Jan '06, 3:15am I have some free time on my hands, would you guys like me to whip out some Metal Babbling post counts? Or should I wait until the end of the first one? Or does Fel want to do it?
Felinoid Sun, 22nd Jan '06, 3:28am @Saber:
Feel free; I'm certainly not going to do it. :heh: And how you do it is of course your business. It doesn't matter if you do it thread-by-thread, page-by-page, post-by-post, or even every 13 posts or something silly like that. Accuracy is the only thing you have to answer for, so everything else is your choice, including appointing a successor should you be unable or unwilling to continue.
The one piece of advice I will give you is to name it similarly (MBP History), so that anyone looking for the full series can find them all easily. I fully expect to start up an SBP (Sports) History should the original SBP thread ever close. :grin:
Saber Sun, 22nd Jan '06, 3:34am Right, I'll figure something out. RMP doesn't move as quickly, so I'll probably count every 5 or 10 pages. I'll start whipping out some numbers in another thread shortly. Should I open the thread in Sorcerous Sundries, or in the Sensorium?
Felinoid Sun, 22nd Jan '06, 4:00am SS, I'd say. After all, it is meant to record the history of the site and its members, not the bands...right? ;) And didn't you see what I said about MBP? It's hardly random if there's a subject.
DarkStrider Mon, 23rd Jan '06, 10:53pm Thanks Fel it's not as bad as I thought only about 30% spam but 7% per board :mommy:
Kitrax Tue, 24th Jan '06, 5:21am Hmmm...I like the new format of the stats list. Very informative on useless crap. :p Some men have girlfriends/a wife...others have SP/Mystra. :shake: :hahaerr:
Just kidding. :p
Keep up the good work. :thumb: :rolling:
kuemper Tue, 24th Jan '06, 2:29pm I also like the new format for listings.
Felinoid Tue, 24th Jan '06, 7:15pm Well, it's not exactly a 'new format' per se, as much as it is a new feature. I took a quick look through the RBs to see who got first reply to each thread and put that up there. And why was I not surprised that the spammy HB got the most? :shake: The only exception to the rule is Headbanger's "first", which was actually the second reply in that thread, but the first, posted by Mirkwood (since unregistered), was deleted by an angry Tal, so it doesn't count by any measure.
Also, Ofelix has hit exactly 1000 RB posts, solidifying his title of Prince of SPAM. The King and Queen are (as ever) chev and Ara, but by the looks of it, the Crown Prince has designs on the SPAM throne. :heh: I'll get some percentages up post haste.
EDIT:
Okay, the percentages are up, and yes DS, 30% is bad. ;) It puts you at fifth (of 22) right behind the worst: Lai, DotW, Ara, and Ofelix. Interestingly, DotW is now above Ara percentage-wise.

Harbourboy Tue, 24th Jan '06, 8:29pm Nice work, Felinoid. That is some interesting stuff. I don't remember doing 5 first posts but it is an interesting record to hold (for a little while) anyway. Cool to see that I got 3 decimal places in my percentage. Such accuracy!
Keep up the good work!

Harbourboy Wed, 25th Jan '06, 9:14pm We all did, though! :p
The Magpie Thu, 26th Jan '06, 12:10am Wow, DotW: 712 posts (to date) is almost 1.5 extra RBPs all by yourself! That's quite some going in such a short time.
Freakin' spammer. :p :shake:
Saber Thu, 26th Jan '06, 2:41am Ooooh, shiny new format! I like it!
Disciple of The Watch Thu, 26th Jan '06, 3:19am I shall answer that with a famous Starcraft quote, Mag:
Yeah, well, I'm a man of action. What can I say? Bloody spammer I am.
kuemper Thu, 26th Jan '06, 5:00am Opps, I never noticed the percentages before now. :doh: Not a bad bit from me. Healthy spamming. ;)
Felinoid Thu, 26th Jan '06, 5:23am Well, I did just put them up yesterday, so that might explain it. ;)
JiggaJay Thu, 26th Jan '06, 5:29am Where do you guys read these stats at? I wanna know how much i've spammed...
Harbourboy Thu, 26th Jan '06, 5:38am JiggaJay - the numbers are on page one of this thread, but you're not there because you weren't on the list of people who requested that Felinoid painstakingly hand-count their posts.
Felinoid Fri, 3rd Feb '06, 1:44am Up to date again, but the percentages are too much work for almost no gain (don't change much). Therefore, I'm only going to redo them once a month.
Harbourboy Fri, 3rd Feb '06, 1:54am Nice work, Felinoid. The spam is flowing freely I see. Each RBP is lasting less than 10 days at the moment.
Kitrax Sun, 5th Feb '06, 8:38am Geeze, I think that the SS forum has it's own RBP thread! How has this thing added up to 8 pages?!?! :eek:

:o
Disciple of The Watch Tue, 14th Feb '06, 10:12pm Damn, didn't spammed as much as I would have liked to. RBP beware of the day I have internet back!
Felinoid Thu, 9th Mar '06, 4:09am Okay, I've got run-through 7 slated for just after RBP#62 finishes up, since Shell volunteered. Anyone who would like to be included with her should speak up now. :D
kuemper Sat, 18th Mar '06, 10:00pm Ooo, I'm number 4 for posting. Does that make me Princess of Spam? :hmm: Felinoid, remind me to send you some cookies for all your hard work on this.
Felinoid Sun, 19th Mar '06, 12:04am Sorry kuemp, but to qualify for Prince or Princess of SPAM you must get to quadruple digits. You shouldn't be too far away by now, but I'm going to put off tallying #63 until I've got Shell and Dfly's counts up.
Disciple of The Watch Thu, 23rd Mar '06, 6:28am Even with the last two month's at best sporadic spam, I haven't lost my place. Interesting.
Felinoid Mon, 3rd Apr '06, 6:00am Dfly and Shell are in now, and everything is up to date. You can thank my busted laptop for the sudden influx of activity on this. Anyway, we finally have someone who has over 50% of their posts in the RB (up to March 9th, anyway): Dragonfly had 880 posts in the RB out of 1618.
kuemper's probably up to at least 1000 RB posts by the time of this post, making her a true Princess of SPAM, but it doesn't become official until RBP#65 closes and is tallied. And, astonishingly, it looks like Dfly will be another SPAM Princess soon, as she's likely up to at least 950 by now, having appeared on the list right at #5 and bumping just about everybody down a spot. She is truly a dedicated spammer. :shake:
Harbourboy Mon, 3rd Apr '06, 6:44am Fascinating stuff. Good work, Felinoid.
Disciple of The Watch Tue, 18th Apr '06, 6:48pm Ehh, I'm getting pretty high in that list. Since I am just next to Dfly, does that make her my Spam Princess?
Felinoid Tue, 18th Apr '06, 7:01pm Sorry, no. You don't qualify for SPAM Prince just yet. 81 more posts! (Dfly would be a good choice when you get there, though.)
Disciple of The Watch Tue, 18th Apr '06, 7:07pm Right. :heh: Well, I should reach the 81 posts needed to bust the 1000 needed by the next RBP or two. And if she's willing, I'm taking Dfly as Spam Princess.
Ahh, to think that not even a year ago, I was but a humble turquoise, posting every now and then... look what I've become, I'm well on my way to become a Spam Prince. :heh:

Kitrax Wed, 19th Apr '06, 10:29am A Queen and two princesses of spam. Who shall their king and princes be? :p
Since I've only got 16.28% of my total posts in the RBP, does that make me a Spam wanna-be? :rolleyes: :rolling:

Disciple of The Watch Wed, 19th Apr '06, 7:05pm Who shall their king and princes be?Chev is supposed to be Ara's King of Spam, while Dfly is my own Princess of Spam. No need to worry about the Spam Legacy :p
and know further I am SithSPAMLord So am I. What of it?
Felinoid Wed, 19th Apr '06, 8:32pm Oy. People, settle down. It requires at least 1000 posts in the RBP to be royalty, and as the counts go up I may have to revise that for inflation. Ara is the undisputed Queen of SPAM, chev is the current King, Ofelix is the Prince, and kuemper is the Princess. That's ALL for now, but some may be added later.
Now, I have to admit I like the idea of the SPAM Lords and Ladies, but I think that should be determined by the percentages. This one wouldn't need to be adjusted for inflation, so I'm setting a firm one-third rule. The people who qualify are Dragonfly, Arabwel, Laiwethel, Disciple, and Ofelix.
Now, since chev doeesn't qualify I declare the Kingdom of SPAM to be a matriarchy under the rule of Queen Arabwel, who has granted her son Ofelix a lordship of his own. DotW, Lai, and Dfly are the other lord and ladies of the land. Ara, disappointed by her daughter kuemper's lack of interest in the running of the kingdom, is looking to adopt/birth another daughter or two (though she may get sons along the way ;) ). Sound good?

The Magpie Thu, 20th Apr '06, 1:00am Hey Fel, could you do me? I've not got many posts in the RB (compared to some) but I'd be interested to know how much I've spammed. If you need someone else to make it worth bothering, then I'd be more than happy to oblige. Not that I'm actually doing owt, but whatever. :)
Cheers, puddy-tat! :thumb:
Felinoid Thu, 20th Apr '06, 1:24am Okay, we've got Daie (answered in PM), Dalveen, and Magpie in run-through 8. I'll get it started after #67 ends.
I'm also going to be dropping Ragusa from the list if he doesn't post at least once anywhere on the boards in the next month. Keeping the static low stat up there for someone who likely doesn't care anymore (if he ever did in the first place, since I put him on myself) just doesn't make any sense to me.
Ofelix Thu, 20th Apr '06, 4:03am I'm eager to see the results, and I assume that I shall also make the 8th run eh ye old Cat-man?
Felinoid Thu, 20th Apr '06, 4:17am @Ofelix:
*sigh* This is probably the third time I've had to tell you, but I'll say it all again: You are already on the list. You will not magically disappear from the list so long as you remain active. People on the list have their counts updated every time I tally an RBP, which is completely separate from the run-throughs; run-throughs are only to count for people I add to the list, in RBP threads that I've already counted for everyone else. You can check on your status by looking at the third post on the first page. Anything else you need to know?
Disciple of The Watch Thu, 27th Apr '06, 6:12am DAMN! 970! So close!
Next RBP, then.
Daie d'Malkin Fri, 5th May '06, 1:19am Whoa. I wonder how much spam I added in that last one
Felinoid Fri, 5th May '06, 1:26am Won't know for a while, I'm afraid. Tallying RBP #68 (and #69 & any after) will have to wait until I've finished the run-through. That's how it goes, simply because I don't see the point in tallying a thread twice (if I did 68 now, I'd just have to do it again when the run-through got to it).
P.S. FYI, your first appearance in the RBP was in #11.
Disciple of The Watch Fri, 5th May '06, 6:25am Well, Big Cat, am I now truly a Prince of Spam?
Felinoid Fri, 5th May '06, 7:06am Actually, DotW, that's been nixxed. The Lord and Lady thing too. Too much glorification of SPAM. I'll never stop considering Ara the Queen, of course, but the rest of the titles go. If you really must, follow the guidelines I set out before, but I won't support it, and I wouldn't go spouting it too much or you'll likely face ridicule. ;) So has it been written, so shall it be done.
EDIT:
Also see my post above for the reason why I haven't updated your count. You're likely over 1000 by now, but I don't really know for sure. Nor will I for a while.
I'm not really sure why you'd want to be a Prince of SPAM anyway. It sounds like the kind of thing that would come with a plaque. :shake:

Kitrax Tue, 4th Jul '06, 11:00am Hey, Fel...have you stopped doing RBP counts? Back on May 4th, you said that you were currently tallying #68, but at this point in time, we're on RBP #73.
Ive made almost 300 more posts since you last counted my total RBP posts, and if at all possible, I'd like an update. :D
I understand the whole "glorification of SPAM" thing, but does that mean that you're not going to be doing any more counts? :bad: :rolling:
Felinoid Tue, 4th Jul '06, 11:23am I'm still doing the counts, and you're missing a couple things. First, it was #67, not #68. Second, you're missing that I was doing a run-through; which took me a bit more time than usual because I was doing it only occasionally. But right now I've got the counts for Dalveen, Daie, Nakia, and Magpie up to not only #67, but also everyone up to #68.
In short, I'm currently working on getting caught up after the necessary run-through delay, and I'll post when it's up to date. Until then, you can see when I've last worked on it just by looking at the edit date for the third post in the thread.
Disciple of The Watch Tue, 4th Jul '06, 8:47pm Oh? I thought you were abandoning the counts, Big Cat. Well, good to see I'm finally past the thousand now. To think that not even a year ago, I was but a noob spammer... ahh, it brings a tear to my eye.

Disciple of The Watch Mon, 31st Jul '06, 2:54am I have an average count of 229.6 posts per month, and I should reach 2700 posts by august, My first SP anniversary is coming soon...
And I outdid myself - nearly 300 posts more than what I predicted. Ahhh, it brings a tear to my eye. To think that a year ago I was but a noob spammer...
dmc Mon, 31st Jul '06, 7:34am This is not the RBP, so stop with the incessant spamming already!
Felinoid Fri, 1st Sep '06, 5:40pm Everything finally up to date, including the percentages. And on the first of the month, no less.
Harbourboy Sat, 2nd Sep '06, 1:52am Nice work.
Ofelix Thu, 21st Sep '06, 3:01am Real Nice work there Fel.
Felinoid Tue, 17th Oct '06, 9:40pm Counts and percentages updated, and one other thing...
...I now have definitive proof that Harbourboy has absolutely no life at all. As of September 1st, he had 8,072 posts. Since then, in only 46 days, he has posted over 2000 times to raise his count to 10,312. That's an average of ~48.7 posts per day. And I can only imagine the kind of content-light posts they were. :rolleyes:
Harbourboy Sat, 30th Dec '06, 10:26pm Nice work keeping these statistics up to date (even is this is yet another "content-light" post).
Felinoid Mon, 1st Jan '07, 8:43am Updated counts and percentages, and finally remembered to add percentages for the four people in the last run-through. So Daie, Dal, Mags and Nakia can now see what percentage of their posts are in the RBP.
kuemper Mon, 1st Jan '07, 1:40pm Yayness, I've started 5 RBP. Only through dilligence, though, which proves I have No Life. :lol:
Thanks for the stat work this early in the new year. :thumb:
Felinoid Mon, 1st Jan '07, 6:28pm On a bit of a lark, I did a quick search for Uri's posts in Whatnots, having noticed the posts in RBP #83. Turns out those were his first RB posts, so I decided to beat the possible news post numbers to the punch and add him, rather than end up doing it down the line and having to skim back through dozens of RBPs.
Felinoid Thu, 3rd May '07, 6:07am Caught up after a bit of a slump. Percentages updated as well.
And kuemper, you have eight first posts now, so you can stop grabbing them and let some of the others have a chance. :p
The Magister Thu, 10th May '07, 9:48am Do you only keep track of SPS members Felinoid?
kuemper Thu, 10th May '07, 2:32pm And kuemper, you have eight first posts now, so you can stop grabbing them and let some of the others have a chance.:shame: But... but...
;)
Nice job keeping track.
Felinoid Thu, 10th May '07, 10:00pm Do you only keep track of SPS members Felinoid? I only keep track of those who have asked to be kept track of. Well, them and the big dogs, like Tal, BTA, and chev. You want in?
The Magister Fri, 11th May '07, 7:07am Sure. I'd love to be.
Montresor Fri, 11th May '07, 11:11am Please count me in - though I don't think I can ever compare to the real spammeisters. :grin:
