Hey everyone. I am new here and was told by my other half that there are certain posts that you do that mean something.....I have tried looking around to find the much needed thread so I can see which posts those are, but alas, I cannot find it
Can ya'll help me please!!! |
| Something like where you can't post "this" or something silly on certain numbered posts. I don't remember all the numbers he said, but I think it starts off with 49, and there is a 559 and a 1776. I honestly don't know what he is talking about. I am just hoping to find out if he is for real or if he is just pulling my chain. |
I'm totally confused
He *might* mean that certain post #'s mean something: as you post, your post count goes higher. You start with post #1, then post again and have post #2, the post something else and your count is at post #3, etc. So when you make post # 223, it is 'significant' (I guess) because it is a caliber: .223 Or # 556 is a caliber: 5.56 |

There's also this thread. Quoting someone and typing This or +1 underneath is a way of saying that you agree and would have said the same thing. Post count # with matching pic |

I do believe that is what he was talking about. Thank you!! |

Welcome, new poster! And a tip: it's socially acceptable to celebrate a given post milestone (such as 1911) with photos of said item, or post similarly interesting photos of related subjects such as bacon FTW. Thanks for the welcome! I am slowly learning the "good manners" around here. Now I just need to learn all the milestones! I missed the first one though :( |

My guy would send me links daily through IM that he found of interest and after about 6 months of looking and laughing, I decided I would join so I could be part of the festivities. I have only been a team member for 4 days, and I am HOOKED! The GD is the best or worst (can't decide) place to be..... |

Welcome. Don't feel bad; I've never paid attention to my post count or intentionally posted anything 'special' for a certain post number. Same here. Am I'm the resident female post whore. ![]() PMM, are you staking your claim? She has only been here for 4 days and has already racked up 33 or so post. I think the new gal is going for your title. But has she posted a picture? I know that you have a few of those up. Max |

And yes, I have posted my pic in the "Lady's of Arfcom" thread. I am the hot chick holding a rifle...lol. Good luck picking me out of the haystack! |

No, I think what he means that there is reports of gangs that follow you home if yours is the 49th post or 559th post, etc. It's part of a gang initiation thing, pretty common. |
