Or maybe it's less about the actual number of posts you have and more about the number of posts you post a day?

You're a Generalite when you think you are. Don't get caught up in the post count thing, man.

When you make more posts in General than anywhere else, by far, you're a Generalite.

When you're not even sure what people do in most the other forums, you're a generalite.

When you stop yourself just short of asking for a source in a verbal conversation, you're a generalite.

When you find yourself looking a thread starters name and already saying, "Not this shit again..." you're a generalite.

etc.

...you are considered a generalite?

Just wondering.:cool:Since when is there a minimum post count requirement for being called that? o_O

It's just a descriptive term for the forum you're posting in, it's not some badge of hono(u)r.


Apart from that, this applies:

Here's a two-part question for those with more time and posts here than I have: would you consider any troll a Generalite? Are there "legendary" trolls like Jesussaves or Means To An End who get the Generalite label simply because of their ubiquity?

No, seriously, since when has "Generalite" become anything but a descriptive term for all the people posting in the forum we're all posting in?

Someone elighten me, quick, please.

My post count snuck up on me one day. For the longest time I had no idea I was over 3000. It was at that point that I realized that I didn't really give a shit.

What makes you a Generalite, or at least a good one, is relevant posts, or digressions that are at least tangentially related, or complete threadjacks that are at least amusing.

I'd say it's not post count, but time spent here. I'd say it'd take about 3-7 weeks to get the hang of the place, and from then on it's just getting to know people more and bitching about the timewarps, trolls, and the same threads coming up again and again.

Man, I've been here since twenty-aught-three, and I'm still somewhat of an outsider. I think part of the problem may be that my name is almost impossible to pronounce or spell correctly - if I had a snappier name I'd probably be more memorable.

I recently just piqued over 2000, which pleased me. I didn't celebrate the big two-oh-oh-oh, but I did spot my 1999th post (and I partied approprately, Prince fans ;)!).

Besides, I don't think post-count is the contributing factor. I've lost count of the number of times I've seen newbs leapfrog me into forum royalty almost overnight.

You're a generalite when you say you are.
UNIverseVERSE
15-03-2007, 21:30
I'd say it's not about postcount, or really when you think your a generalite, but rather it's when the other generalites call you a generalite. You can wear the label once another generalite has used the term to refer to you. Basically, the people who are, know it; for the others, it doesn't matter what your postcount is, it ain't happening.
I V Stalin
15-03-2007, 21:42
You don't need a certain number of posts or anything like that. I know I'm a Generalite, because out of my 9000+ posts, I'd say about 9000 of them have been in this forum.

If you know you're a Generalite, you're a Generalite. If you consider yourself a Generalite, you're probably a Generalite. If this thread is the first time you've heard the term...then run! Run before we catch you too!!!
Big Jim P
15-03-2007, 21:54
It's not about post-count, It's about recognition. I am a Generlite, because I am recognized as such by the others. In my case, it is because I have been here almost four years now, and in that time I have posted almost exclusively here in General. My postcount only amounts to 10K. Then again, some are immediatley considered Generalites (Pancake comes to mind). It all just comes back to recognition.

1000 posts and you are a generalite. less than that and you might disappear at any time.

once you hit 1000 you are definitely hooked enough that we can begin to remember things about you.

10k and you can be considered a regular.

When you are recognized as someone of a slight importance than that is all that you need to be a Generalite. In my opinion at least.

You're not an outsider Dobbs! You're in the Canadian Chapter.

And as for what it takes to be a generalite... I think it's just a matter of posting often enough to be noticed. Some folks'll be noticed right away for their excellent debate, or humour, or excellent debate humour and be 'recognized'. Others will post sporadically and may never be noticed by the few who come and go over three month periods.

(And yes, I said "folks'll". Just for fun.)

That top 100 poster list needs to be updated.

-snip the others who said the same thing-

yeah, czardas used to do it, and i'm not sure how. i guess he just went through the memberslist but i would think there'd be more to it than that (as that includes non-NS posters as well)

Nearly all of the non-NS posters have avatars or a customised name instead of eg. Muppet Owner. I guess that'd be one way of working it out.

Of course, if you're asking how many posts one needs before being generally known/appreciated/considered memorable/etc. by other members of the forum, I can't really tell you that, save to say that it's probably a larger number than 2,185. :p

As pathetic as it may seem, I know others do this as well - we look up to the guys with higher postcounts, and hope that, to them and others, we're more than just another noob saying the same stuff that's surely been said before over and over again.

LG and DCD are the two that most immediately come to mind. I remember DCD once quoted me in his post in a non-negative way and it actually made my day.
I don't have this in regards to people with high post counts, more in regards to specific people I deem "to cool for me". Although over time, turns out, most of those are really nowhere as cool as I once thought. :p

You know all of us with what may be considered high post counts just hope that the n00bs would follow our examples. Makes us feel real special to know we influence the future NSers. :)

plus its just good to know my e-wang is bigger than most other people's on here ;)

You are only a generalite as long as you can fight off the dark forces of RL, be strong, and may Mod be with you. :p

I'd say it's not post count, but time spent here. I'd say it'd take about 3-7 weeks to get the hang of the place, and from then on it's just getting to know people more and bitching about the timewarps, trolls, and the same threads coming up again and again.

I guess I'm not a generalite then... cause i dunno whats the point to them... but they seem funny.

They're apparently caused by the fact that jolt has three different servers the clocks of which are out of sync. So depending on which server you use to post, the timestamp of your post will be varying degrees ahead or behind actual time and the post will be sorted into the thread accordingly.

Now why nobody has managed to adjust the damn clocks in the last couple months is anyone's guess. :rolleyes:

My g/f pretty much consumes all my time now. I post on occasion and lurk a bit. I've seen a few randoms on the street that remind me of people. Saw a girl who looked like Rameria and a guy who looked like PM today (must be a sign of missing NSG):cool:

Not just the posts, but the time. People like you know what goes on here, you've pretty much posted so many times it's worn off that fake shield a lot of posters have, and you're left with everytime you post you're basically showing your true self - with whatever you guys say, it's like showing the world your soul. I respect that.

Combine that idea with the fact that most of you guys are just awesome incarnate, and can be talked to about anything, it can be argued that you guys become what can be considered the gods of the forum. Mods might have the power, and granted they're probably up there with you, but just having mod status is nothing compared to what you guys are.

I know I consider myself a generalite. Especially as I lead the generalite rebellion against the generalite royalty back in... I can't remember, but it was way before the move to Jolt. We're talking 'once a upon a time...' territory here.

Though I think I might have done that under a puppet or something. All I really remember about it is my co-instigator had a picture of Napoleon on a horse as his avatar.

Anyway, what I really want to know is how much of a generalite others consider me to be. Considering I'm going through a lurking period.

Which brings me to another point. Did anyone ever post a thread about the rioting lawyers in Pakistan?

So very true. You can never post enough. Yeah, if you're fingers aren't sore from typing and you don't have matchsticks keeping the eyelids open at 4am, then you're not a generalite.

I guess I am not a generalite, if I was I would probably be posting in my thread more.

No no...hit and run is a total Generalite move.


Still say that if this is your preferred forum then you're a Generalite. It's not so much a distinction as a curse...

I usually just use "Generalite" to mean "person who posts in the General forum," in which case the answer would logically be 1.

Of course, if you're asking how many posts one needs before being generally known/appreciated/considered memorable/etc. by other members of the forum, I can't really tell you that, save to say that it's probably a larger number than 2,185. :p

I dunno, I've been listed as a Generalite before, and I'm only on about 600. YMMV

You're a Generalite when you think you are. Don't get caught up in the post count thing, man.

When you make more posts in General than anywhere else, by far, you're a Generalite.

When you're not even sure what people do in most the other forums, you're a generalite.

When you stop yourself just short of asking for a source in a verbal conversation, you're a generalite.

When you find yourself looking a thread starters name and already saying, "Not this shit again..." you're a generalite.

etc.
I agree with you.
But also being a Generalite is about presence.
Simple people in II or NS have over 10K posts does that make them Generalites?
Hell no.

Besides post counts are a sign of godliness or lameness not oones status as a Generalite.

The young and their lack of knowing. tsk tsk

Are you suggesting i have some high status as a Generalite because of my post count, or what ever you are suggesting what does that thread have to do with anything?
It doesn't differ to what i said, in fact that link is highly irrelevant.

Posi your conclusion may well be valid but your means of working out is poor, you only get half marks this time.

I imagine I'm a generalite, but I'd rather not be.
