State of the forum 2025

[Samu Cuenca]

Reactions were only added to the forum a few years ago - the ratio of reactions to posts reflects this. Maybe it was just before you became a member?

If you want to rank members you can't use reactions as many members were here before reactions started.

There is also the points system which recognizes longevity - e.g. "Ancient"

A power ranking based upon recent history would work though.

I'm well aware of that, which was also why I've suggested I shouldn't do it, as I was visited the forum occasionally in the years before I joined.

It's actually not that surprising that some (newer) members might have higher reaction-score than posts.
If a completely new member makes a post that quickly has two people reacting, then that new poster has twice as many reactions as posts.

I believe scientists have named it the "Sandisfan Effect".

It is simple math. If two posters have similar post counts, then the poster who joined after reactions started will have the most reactions and the higher ratio of reactions to posts. As someone who first posted in 2010, I am surprised you didn't mention this? How many of your 39,000+ posts were made before reactions were added to this forum?

But I am also wondering why this discussion is occurring in the Clinic?

Some people might be using shady methods to increase their scores.

Would bans/suspensions be a knock on a poster?

It should be a requirement.

Vwipe caught doing too many words per minute again.

@gregrowlerson has admitted to being in "a high state". Though, I don't know if he has smoked something, or is stuck in a tree, and can't get down.

Maybe he‘s in Colorado.

He's probably high on either love or tea.

Maybe he's in Colorado, smoked too much of the "funny stuff" - perfectly legal - climbed a tree, and is now stuck.

Getting stuck in a tree sounds more like the kind of thing that would happen to topcat.

That John Denver's full of *** man.

That‘s why he‘s called topcat, he‘s stuck in tree tops.

You have to stay in practice or else you might get killed by the Rogla/Remco Mountain High during the Vuelta.

It's probably the Belgian Ilmaestro.

 

[Rob5091]

If a US President can pardon himself, then why can n't a poster be able to "like" his own posts (asking for a friend).

 

[Ilmaestro99]

It's probably the Belgian Ilmaestro.

That's a very disturbing thought .

I made an account on there to spread my knowledge of the sport. So many people there are annoying cheerleaders for Belgian pozzato

 

[Andy schleck]

The popularity of @Ilmaestro99 is unbeliavable 😂 "Belgian pozzato", the Belgian spilak" 😂

The only question is if we’re the main or side piece.

The road racing forum is the wife, the clinic is the mistress, whereas the Roglic and Remco threads are hookers and coke.
