Nah, because you can't write a program that can judge quality, only quantity. Sometimes (not often, but still), a high content post can be made with just a couple words (usually in direct response to someone, but don't just assume that to be the case), but a program would never be able to tell that.Gustavo S.

Not that the mods scour every single post. I mean, sometimes they'll just see a bad post by themselves, but most of the time, enough people report it that it gets pushed into their moderation queue and they can see for themselves if it's worth a warning.
Heh, I remember when the first person, Indigo Dingo, pushed past 10,000. It was such a huge deal. Of course, you don't see him around anymore because around that time, he sorta became a huge troll. It happens.SirBryghtside said:
Yeah, I remember that. Christ, feels so long ago. Good to know someone else remembers.SirBryghtside said:
Ah, shit, I'd forgotten about Mobius and Empyrean. Sad situation with those two. Not their bans, the other thing.SirBryghtside said:
And I genuinely did not know about the Warcry situation, I never paid them much mind. Was it because of that badge on here for posting on there? I remember they complained about it, then I just stopped hearing them, but I never really noticed.
I still consider myself fairly new here, even though I've been here over a year (seriously, thats nothing compared to some of you guys)
But I got to Gone Gonzo (1000) title pretty quickly I think and reached 2000 the other day.
Not been posting much recently though.

I wrote a one word answer to a question and in my defense it was all that was necessary to answer said question. Wish i knew that before.MercurySteam said:
That's what I thought. I just don't remember it happening personally, I guess.SirBryghtside said:Avatar Roku said:Not written by me, but I guess I'll respect his privacy.It all started with the Forum Vagabond badge. Tons of people came here to farm for badges by necroing old threads and posting low content non sensical posts.SirBryghtside said:I'm trying to brush up on some history, the scholar that I am
Anyway, how exactly did WarCry die?
Several senior members of War Cry spoke out against this, and John Funk came here to try and sort it out.
A notable member was banned for making a thread about why The Escapist was making War Cry such a bad place. Which sparked a massive outrage. Funk further aggro'd people by locking any thread that spoke out against him.
When the WarCry corner was set up most people on here thought it was patronising and demeaning to them and now they all left.

Oh, I remember Indigo_Dingo. The #1 Sony fanboy of the site 'till he got banned, then I had to take the helm for a bit. I remember there was a huge thread, literally dedicated to celebrating his ban. The mods did not quite appreciate that, I tell you.SirBryghtside said:
