There have been jokes made about where I post and how I post before and my lack of Tolkieny-ness and my lack of serious-ness and my lack of whatever or my over-attracted-ness to Religion and Politics threads. . .so I did extensive research. . .and this is where I've posted. . .I was actually surprised:

As I said, I surprised myself. I've posted in Lord of the Rings more than any other forum. I really thought I'd done more in Politics and Religion, as well as Stuff and Bother. . .
I just thought this was interesting. . .
HLG, I think you made a mistake with Stuff and Bother. I think you ment to count posts rather than number of threads posted in?If so, your S&B posts are 1594.
I did mine, but not as thoroughly as HLG did hers... I put all the Archives into one for example...
Small text is Number of threads... came and added this in after seeing Beleg's stats. Like him, I only do the non-Guild Tolkien forums.

Stats of special interest: I have posted in 19% of the HoME/UT threads, though only joined in April of 2002. And have posted in (hehehehe I love this) 34%... yes over 1/3 of the threads in The Silmarilliom forum... even though I didn't start posting there until 7/02.
12% of posts with *Noldo* are mine. About 7 [ercent of posts with this belong to Inderjit.
Furthermore 7.7% of all my posts have *Noldo*... which would be 'Noldo' or 'Noldor' Or 'Noldolante' and so on... you get the astrisk idea ;)
22% of posts with Finrod are mine.
33% of posts with Gildor are mine. :o
10% of posts with Finarfin are mine.
17% of posts with the word tournament belong to Aule. :p
Percentages rounded.

Just wondering how exactly do you measure your no. of posts etc.?
By counting them one by one....how else could we do it? ;)

7,5 % of all posts with the word 'Galadriel' are mine. Considering how much she is mentioned in the book sections, and in the movie sections where I don't post, this is a very high percentage.

I find it extremely ironic that you would classify the Periaur as a guild, and in the same breath put the Outcasts under 'fluff'.

Remember this only counts the posts that haven't been deleted. For example, I have 732 posts, but I know for a fact that 6 months to 1 year ago, before all this big clean up happened, I had well over 1000 posts.

Woops. I classified that section as 'Fluff' before I noticed that the GoO had been moved there. :o

HLG, I think you made a mistake with Stuff and Bother. I think you ment to count posts rather than number of threads posted in?If so, your S&B posts are 1594.
I was wondering about that. I later realized that on some of the searches I was searching with "show results as threads" and in some "show results as posts" so whenever I did "as threads" I got the thread number and when I did "as posts" I got the post number. Now I'm totally unsure of how accurate what I posted was.
Just for the record- over 26.4% of Elgee's posts are in S&B
Stuff and Bother--807 (23.1%)
Only 3.5 percent below yours. ;)
It took forever to do that.

Ok, I thought I'd do a percentage of posts with the word "" in them thing. . .but I hate math and have lost my calculator.
So, out of 718 posts with the word Cat in them I have 117.
Out of 582 posts with the word Cats in them I have 143.
Out of 78 posts with the word Kitten in them I have 21.
Kittens: Forum-78 Me-10
Kitty: Forum-112 Me-34
Kitties: Forum-33 Me-16
Perhaps I should've picked a more Tolkieny term.
And to show how I spread my evil nets over the board. . .
Elgee is officially mentioned in 2091 posts. . .Only 797 are mine!

Oh, come on snaga, admit it - you wanna know too. Ever since you glimpsed at the title of this thread from the corner of your eye, the thought of wanting to know just how many posts you have in which area, and especially the excitement of how many percents each number represents, has been gnawing on you, slowly but surely.
Am I right or am I right? :D

I dunno....a fair percentage of them would be referring to the Elgee vacuum cleaner ;)
And why would you want to address yourself anyway?

No idea. But I'd like to know, too. Or maybe it's so obvious that they are all wondering how we might not know that?:D:D:D

True :)
To find out how many posts you have in each section do this:
Go to the search page.
Enter your name in the field in the upper right.
In the lower left of the page there will be a drop down menu from which you select which area of the forum to search. Just below this is an option to 'show results as Posts' or 'show results as threads'... by default it shows threads, so you must select to view them as posts.
