Brewer level....post count increase,,,,,,,,ahahahahahaha make me exist!

Sure
-
you
-
should!

Do

as

not

Post counts, and titles based on them, are stupid in my opinion. Just because you type a lot or have a lot of excess time on your hands, doesn't make you a better brewer.
-
Who wants to be a better brewer when "Coolness" is involved... :o
...and 4 minutes is NOT an excess amount of time... :P
Meh... I would mention the full moon but that was Wednesday or Thursday, high-strung
comes to mind, but what ever.

Oh yes it does...try it...you'll see. ;)
-
Yeah, I'll get somewhere even if It ain't right....lol
-
Just 29 more and you'll be a BrewMASTER!

Yes it does. Look at Denny! ;D

Denny had over 300 batches brewed and his own yeast strain before this forum even went active. He is a prolific poster BECAUSE he is a better brewer and has the experience to back it up. Let's just be thankful that he has the time and is willing to share it with the rest of us!
-
It actually doesn't take long to distinguish the "post whores" from the people who know what their taking about. There's a guy on another forum who could probably figure out how to build a spaceship, fly to the moon, and brew in a zero oxygen atmosphere, but has pretty low post count.
Post counts are fun, but don't try to take them too seriously ( well except in Denny's case :) )
-
Hey...only 77 more posts until I become a brew master ;)
-

Unless they raise the Bar ;D
-

SLUT!
-
where would I find the number of posts required for the various levels?
-
Best way is to just spend time onboard and check out the different poster's levels...
Start with Denny and work your way down....I suppose you could pm Drew and get em...
-
Level names, with the number of stars you get and the number of posts it takes....
1st Kit * 0
Cellarman ** 25
Assistant Brewer *** 100
Brewer **** 250
Brewmaster ***** 500
Senior Brewmaster ****** 1000
Brewmaster General ******* 2000
Denny Failed Overposting Rehab ********* 2600
Denny Really Misses the Grateful Dead, Man. * 2700
Denny's Fully Embraced His Dark Posting Side - stay tuned!

Man, we were all waiting to see what you'd get when you hit 2800 and now you gave it away :(
-
Denny hasn't gotten there yet,
it could easily change . . . . . ;D
-
Plus I just edited things to remove the info..... ;)
-
it could easily change . . . . . ;D
If the bar gets any higher, I will have carpal tunnel and will never get to be brew master
I get this sinking feeling about my pending promotion

That would be totally funny to have a moving bar, based on Denny's numbers.
So like Denny - 2500 = 1st kit, Denny - 2000 = noob braumeister .....
Eventually it would take 10K posts to get out of 1st kit ranking. And that's ok because it's all a joke anyway, this would just make it a bigger one. Actually maybe everyone would chill out about their "rank" if we went to this model.

Easy for you to say, you got more stars now than the milky way >:(

Hey...I see you got a lift to 6 stars.
Congrats!

OK I don't get it what are the stars about? I thought they coincided with the other rankings(titles) and just kept increasing on your way to Denny-dom. :)

Oh great! I thought maybe it would be something implying that I don't have a life and spend way too much time on here. But this is GREAT! ::) :o ::)
So thanks everyone for the congrats, the angry smileys, the milky way jokes - I'd like to thank.....

Someone (Vince Lombardi ?) once said "Its not if you win or lose but how you play the game."
The late, great, by god, Paul "Bear" Bryant said: "If winning's not important, then why are they keeping score?"
I don't know if this has anything to do with this topic or not, I just wanted another post. ;D

I just wanted another post. ;D
Beerocd thinks Tubercle's problem is Tubercle is not argumentative enough.
Tasts great.. less filling
You got peanut butter on my chocolate...
Ginger vs Mary Anne
All great examples of arguments that can't be won, and can go on forever. Rocketing you into Denny territory.

Prolly won't be a long wait....

I guess I should stop passing up answering questions that have already been answered.
Keeps my posts down... I usually use concrete to keep my posts down.
Yeah, I went there.:D

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think most of the high count posters have jobs. Either they have understanding management or they're just very sneaky. In either case, I'm glad they aren't my employees. ::)

With quality posts like this one, you should be examining your life sooner rather than later...

A similar institution just banned all personal electronic devices including cell phones. Into the locker with you foul devices! >:( I knew it would come to this. I'm sure the suits still get to keep their facebook.
In either case, I'm glad they aren't my employees. ::)
Well I hate to reveal this little nugget about one's current employees- if they have cell phones then they're most likely "using them". 8)

Well, I am self employed. And I worked 13 hours straight yesterday without posting. Also, I check the "users browsing the forum" everytime I log on and 9 times out of 10 "MikeyBrew" appears there. Just sayin'. ;)

Hmmm....awful presumptuous mikeyboy.

Sorry mods, just offering up my opinion. If high posts counts and forum titles mean that much to you, who am I to contradict.
Bye.
-
Well as the OP, I gotta say that I just started this thread as a fun thing...and
it has carried farther than I ever dreamed it would go...lots of reads,follow up posts and
some good humor came of it. Mikey, fwiw I see your point. I never intended it
to get anyone upset. So just continue to have fun with this post if you desire and
keep increasing your counts..... ;)

It's been a fun thread and I was having a lot of fun, however some others may have taken my comments personally. ;D ;D ;D

Why in the world would anyone care about post counts? I mean, as a joke or purely for fun - sure. But I'm sure no one here really gives a flip in the grand scheme of things. I know I don't.

I'm still pondering that sour cherry rochefort brett in oak. I'd love to try some of that. ;)

WTF??? Killing this thread is the last thing I want to happen. Where did that come from?
People sure overreact on here. :-\

Page 5 is pretty much a bummer of a page though.

How's that? If you offer an opposing opinion to the regulars here, you're overreacting???
Please explain.
I hate it when people don't do what they say they're going to and I'm now guilty of it.
This time I'm really gone from this thread.
Sorry that it turned out to be this silly, 1vertical. It really was a good thread. Cheers to all.

No you're not, you'll reply to this post. You can't help it. You're wired funny or something. There's no way you can't reply to this. You won't be able to sleep, when you get up in the middle of the night to pee, you'll be thinking about this thread, more specifically this post. You have a comeback, it wants out, let it go, you must reply. :P

The way I see it if you are under 500 posts you are not a good brewer at all. Not only that you are not even a human being. More closer to the apes. Philistine so to speak. Unclean.
I think I speak for everyone except for major when I say, get your post count up or get out.
Maybe it would make the bottom feeders feel a little better if they changed the top titles to Postmaster. Then denny could be the Postmaster General.

Hooray! Now people can pick on you for not having a life and too many stars and not doing your work while you're at work. ;)
-
I have almost as many posts as beerocd and he was unemployed for like three years. Workin 12 hours a day nowhere near a computer and I could still get off 6 or 8 posts in a 20 min. session.
Now THAT means I need a life. Or more money.

I don't think anyone is forcing you to sit in front of your computer and converse with us. The AHA forum and homebrewing, or culinary arts in your case, is a way of life and here we sit and type...
This is my life. ;)

It's like a virtual bar, we sit around drinking our own swill, discussing, joking, making fun of things.
So it's sorta social, demented and sad, but social. Right?

Haha I can do BOTH and get complemented on how well I do my work! But seriously, I don't let work distract me from the AHA.

You can't set the record because there are people who sign up and never post.
Additionally, if we saw you trying to do something like that, there would be a flurry of posts directed at you that you would have to answer - thus blowing your plan out of the water.
-
The real question is, does it really matter?
-
The real question is, does it really matter?
Absolutely - we live for this s***! We take it totally seriously, it's a career choice - and we shun those who think otherwise. Actually, I wasn't even unemployed - I took a leave of absence just so I could up my post count and be the first guy with 6 stars.

Everyone has to have goals in life. It sounds like you have yours in place. :D
