So before we (aka "I") unveil the chart probs tomorrow, I will give you the promised interview with 100K posts duke.
The Remmy Interview: A look inside Remmy's posts behavior.
Do you consider yourself a legend in ATRL, or just a post *****?
I'm not a post ***** and I don't post only for this chart, which is basically what Wonderlust was doing. Stop doing too much. I don't think I'm a legend neither.
What? You have 100k posts, what are you talking about, you is a legend?!
I've been on the site for 5 years, obviously posts are going to rack up. I may have done a ton last year and still post plenty but I don't have a job (yet) and I'm out of school (for now) so obviously I have a LOAD of free time. I don't have much else to do other than just staying home and I love ATRL so of course I'd be very active and present.
Okay, but why do you only stick to Random Thoughts?
As of right now, I have 2,046 posts in the current Random Thoughts thread. Compared to the 100k+ posts I have overall and 68k+ I've done since my first appearance on the chart, that's not really a massive fraction.
Well why do I never see you outside of The Lounge/Your Top Ten/Games/Best Of?
Those are my favorite places to be because they bring a different side of the forum. Just because I'm not discussing charts and celebrities, fighting in stan wars and dragging people that don't even know I exist doesn't mean I'm spamming or restricting myself. Plus I still sometimes venture into those places, just not too often. Also, there's plenty of threads in each of those parts of the site so it's not like I'm only in one area in the first place.
Oh well, you still post ***** all the time.
No, I communicate, participate and cooperate. I talk plenty in Random Thoughts with people, I'm in multiple tournaments that have discussions and rounds where involvement is crucial and for the past few weeks I've contributed to "live" events such as the Random Thots nomination ceremony, ATRL Big Brother finale + reunions part 1 and 2, ATRL Family Feud 2 finale, multiple rounds in Let's Spoon and Hot Potato, etc. I also watched a few shows live such as Glee and Celebrity Apprentice where I discussed with members that are also used to watch them.
Whatever! You only post for the charts and you know it!
If I did, then why did I request a 2-3 day ban last August when I was supposed to get #1 that week? I didn't even know I was gonna get the top spot until King Pory said it afterwards, but if I was REALLY that addicted and committed to the chart, I would've never taken such a sacrifice. Plus there were some weeks where I went off the chart near the end of last year, and I wasn't banned (other than the requested one) since March 2014. If I really posted for the charts, I'd be in the top 5 every week, yet just a week back I was at #18 and two weeks ago #04. For six weeks straight last year I was completely off the chart. Even before ATRL's Most Addicted was created I posted a ton, there were about 40k posts on my account before 2014 started and I guarantee they didn't just appear out of thin air. If I went overboard I would've already been banned from this long ago, or at least have a warning - yet neither of those have been issued to me.
Thanks, you da best Adruan! xoxo
