Top Posters Often Absent

[Lucky]

With the flurry of milestones reached last week, it is interesting to note that many of our top posters are not often here!

At the very top, as might be expected, are the admins, Tampa Yankee with 4438 posts, and Totally Oz with 3811. Yours truly is at 3006.

But next is BiBottom Boy, who is currently not posting. He has 2472. Another missing poster is next, AdamSmith with 1829. On sick leave is zipperzone with 1419.

Then we have an active poster, MsGuy with 1414. We drop a few hundred to get to the next on the list, Marc Anthony with 1144. Right behind him is FourAces, who just returned after a long absence, yet ranks ninth at 1138.

EXPAT makes the top ten at an even 1000. Right behind him, though, is the long absent Stu Cotts at 931.

So, just an interesting thing to note, our top posters made the list despite taking lots of time off. Should be easy enough for someone to beat that, eh?

The top active posters are TY, Oz, Lucky, MsGuy, FourAces and EXPAT. Honorable mention to lurkerspeaks, who no doubt will soon be in the top ten. Did I miss anyone?

I thought I was the only competitive one here who watched the overall top poster page...I have strived to make it to the top 15, then the top 12.. and soon, the top 10.. and, not to blow my own horn (but no one else has blown anything of mine lately), I joined a year after the start up of the site, where most of the top 10 were posting from the inauguration of the site.

I want to post as much as possible, but at the same time, I don't want to make meaningless, boring posts. I try to interject something worthwhile in a conversation, or start a new one..or at the very least, supply some interesting visuals for all to enjoy..

Lurker-

I have to agree.

Way too much math to keep up with What about my pal lookin? I see him around a fair amount though not so much so recently. Maybe he ran out of clip art

Also I did not know Zipperzone was on medical leave. I hope that he will recover and return.

As EXPAT so eloquently put it in the "what type of porn do you like" thread: "I prefer the real thing." That kind of explains any sporadic behavior you might find in my posting habits.

My absences tend to be shorter and frequent and mainly due to being on the road and otherwise occupied.

I love this site and try my best to keep up with sharing of information and such... but even my modus operandi of finding companion(s) has changed, such that usually now I find them in clubs and via friends of friends on facebook, etc etc. And actually have a "steady" for the last year or so who really makes me happy. So I have done very little hiring or strip club hopping (maybe one hire this entire year and one visit to a strip club all year...) so no longer have as much to contribute in terms of information in those areas.

But ... it's a place I cherish and try to visit whenever I can.

[Lucky]

Not much math as the numbers are all available at the bottom of the page. I do wonder how zipperzone is doing. He did post after his illness, and he was still recuperating.

I must say I have to agree with lurkerspeaks that quantity is no match for quality...and there lies the question of where Lookin fits into all of this!

I, for one, always enjoy Lookin's posts. I don't know where he gets all his visual inspirations from, but they always put a smile on my face.

Me too he comes up with some of the funniest off the wall stuff

[Guest FourAces]

I think Marc has put part of this into perspective. Many regulars are old timers now and have moved on whereas other avenues and interactions have taken the place of the forums. I think this is just a natural progression for many.

[Guest hitoallusa]

Where is bibottom? Does anybody know? I hope he is ok.

[lookin]

How nice!

I'm hosting a houseguest for a couple of weeks and am failing to keep up with my homies here at MER. What a pleasure to hear my little offerings have some entertainment value!

Today was the first day in a year that I couldn't at least peek at all the threads, and I worry that Tomcal has posted a series of beer-can twink images somewhere South of the Border. I'm very glad that there are so many posters here who will join me in keeping an eye out for such an event.

[Guest hitoallusa]

You are so sweet to host someone at your house. I think you are a great host. Have fun.

[Guest gcursor]

oh good. another competition everything is so competitve on these boards. how much do you post? how many escorts do you see a year? how many times do you cum a session? how big is your dick? what's the biggest dick you've taken? what's the most number of escorts you've seen at one time? what's the longest time you ever went having sex with an escort?

and that is why typically many of my answers are either absent or very vague. I despise competing in life and I refuse to compete during my playtime as well. But I know how people like to use that to see where everybody "stacks up" when compared to each other. I mean certainly somebody who has taken a 9" dick and posted 500 times beats a person who has seen 2 escorts for an hour and never topped either of them!

you eventually start to understand that none of those questions really matter anyway. the people who say what they're doing only do a 1/10th of what they say but they have to make it look good so the other boys still think of them as an alpha Lion. so yeah..its kind of cool hearing about how many dicks somebody sucked while getting fucked while watching TV and playing the harmonica AND juggling at the same time. tell everybody you know what you did, how much you did it and how many people you did it too

an ambulance worker once talked of a wealthy guy who had been in a severe car accident. he was very badly hurt and there was nothing they could do. the guy talked of his riches, his cars, his family, and everything else in his life. The worker said he could feel him holding his hand tighter and he could see fear in his eyes. Tears came to his face as he started to pass understanding that despite everything you've accomplished...in the end death will take you regardless...and he finally realized in that LAST split-second that competition and his entire life had been wasted chasing after so many things that in the end no longer matter.

I might get more posting done here, but for some reason I keep getting distracted by all those cute boys at the top of the page...

[Lucky]

Gee, cursor, did you read the thread? It was a commentary on how folks can get to the top here without actually being here that much. Not a very tough competition, is it?

As the thread went along, it was pointed out that quantity isn't so important as quality. Again, kind of burns your idea that it is a "another competition."

Hey, that's it. We could have a burning competition...

More for the statistically minded:

The main page holds 27 unpinned threads. 6 of them have 0 responses and 4 have just 1. The thread that is most responded to is the one on why you hired your first escort.

So, about 40% of posted threads get no response to speak of, but personal stories involving sex- well, they are a hit!

So, once upon a time I went out with this statistics major. All night long he kept giving me the odds that we would end up in bed. He figured them for my place,then his place, or, of course, not at all. I remember those stats to this day.

It was 100% all night that we would go back for sex. It was always 100% at his place yet also 100% at my place. We were roommates, after all!

[lookin]

On average, that was, in all probability, one of the least random posts I have read in a long time, despite its Lucky origins.

One is left wondering, though, based on the relatively small sample size, how many standard deviations appeared during the time you were together, and whether or not Chebyshev's inequality came to the fore.

Of course, one mustn't pry or leap to any conclusions if a large number of discrete variables were factored into the analysis.

At first I thought this was going to be similar to the story about the hitchhiking wizard. I was driving along and picked up this good looking hitchhiker. He kept saying, be careful, I am a wizard and after a while, sure enough I turned into a motel. (Short version as likely everyone has heard this.)

Lookin',

You sport an unusually flushed erection of considerable extension for which I have great envy for the size, if not the blush. You also have my sympathy for the massive case of blue balls affliction. I recommend an evening with the stud of your desires to exercise the one and alleviate the other. Best wishes.
