One that contributes to the conversation. The rules say no short one liners.
Look we have guys that run around posting, 1, 2, 3 and so one. We have had guys that just go around posting, I agree over and over. The idea is to be a contributing member of our community. If you don't want to be that, pay the $20 and live in the classifieds for a year.

So

So the post count threshold isn't automated? It needs to be approved by an admin? A "contributive post" is a very subjective standard.

Let me add, that in some circumstances a one liner could be a quality post. Say someone is asking about an issue he is having with a gun and you diagnose it, or tell him what to check in one line, God Bless, I don't foresee any mod trimming that post.

Yeah, what they said

We don't care.

Your first 50 are kinda watched, not just by the mods but by the established members

A "contributive post" is a very subjective standard.

Common sense goes a long way in helping gauge what qualifies.

 

[churchmouse]

As to a quality post.
It is up to the site pretty much. As mentioned if you just contribute. I have read most of your posts. So far so good. After you 50 pretty much anything goes as you can see from our well established members.

 

[Cameramonkey]

So

RUNNER!!!!! Call the mods!

Yep, the actual count is automated. But folks will spot a runner and report the posts to the mods. Those "runner" posts get deleted pretty quick.

Once you have been here a while and joined the community, you'll see why we are so protective of it. Many of us know each other in the real world. Hell, Churchmouse is my HVAC guy and CHCRandy is my go-to roofer thanks to this place. You get to know folks, end up lining up on the line with them at training and competitions, and occasionally drink beer and break bread with them at meetups. Its a tight nit community.

Hell, Ive cross shipped classified stuff because I know and trust the other guy due to getting to know his character both online here and on the firing line. Due to that relationship, I wasnt worried about getting the money order in the mail. This is a really cool community.

So funny story. I was trying to post a reply earlier from my phone, but got sidetracked after typing "so", and didn't even intentionally post it. i find it ironically hilarious, however.

 

[xxxleafybugxxx1]

Yeah, what they said

I have to agree with these guys. They hit the nail on the head... And stuff

Not really. It’s like porn. You know it when you see it.

 

[femurphy77]

I’m still working at the 50 lol.

Trust me, the hype overrides the reality. Kinda like your first beer and one of your wise ass buddies chose Corona for the occasion.
