Y'all wanna see some real post whoring? Check out the absurd action at http://www.gasbuddy.com/ or http://atlantagasprices.com.
In this thread I participated in, I noticed that one dude has 29,675 posts. Yes, 29,675. I don't see a way on that site to check ranks by posts, but they do have points rankings for posting prices, answering polls, and making posts. In the Atlanta sub-forum alone, there seem to be a number of threads just so folks can post-whore, and when folks "discuss" one of the poll questions, they apparently just post single-word answers or repeat the choice they made in the poll.
Believe it nor not, those folks actually have "Gas Buddy" get-togethers. Now that has to be exciting!

Shawn_D wrote:Methinks thou doth protest too much! In this thread alone, you've posted twice each day since the 2nd day of this thread, making separate posts for your Atlanta and National rankings. You could post both rankings in a single message, but posting separately doubles your count for the same amount of information conveyed. You know what you're doing, as does everyone else who is using the same technique.Sorry for mentioning the elephant in the room!

So I figure it's gonna cost you at least one beer for me not to go back over there and point them to this group ... 
Yeah, I'm sure you'd love to have those guys here yourself!C.R. Krieger wrote:Irony thick enough to cut with a dull knife.
I doubt the jollies you'd get would not offset the long-term grief.-
