Subscriptions count vs Post count (RoFL warning)

Wanna' bitta' fun?

This will be my 400th post. I just asked HeX to "watch a thread" for me, and it said I had 200 subscriptions. (I just posted elsewhere, so I'm now 201.)

So my "threads to posts ratio" is (exactly) 1:2, suggesting that on average, I've made 2 posts per thread subscribed.

The question is: who has the lowest thread to post rating?
[Min post count is 10 - see JK Ferret, below.]

So you thought you were cool by getting your "post count" up (something I've recently been rightly accused of) by posting on Feisty, didn't you? This thread will bring you crashing back down to earth with a thud - I don't think 1:2 can be beaten...

(Technical note: A "lower" thread to post rating is considered (by me) to be better, because it implies you have a broader range of "Hexus.interests".)

201:400 is NOT exactly 1:2 ;)

I don't do subs though, no way to check easily without going through and counting every last thread I've posted in. (There's quite a lot, y'see)

1:2 CAN be beaten, how about a new user who has posted once in the welcome forum? They now have a 1:0 ratio ;)

Could probably cancel it but really cba

D'oh. (Twice.) [Edit: I hope nobody else has a thread like this :-s I didn't check. Sorry Agent :ill: (I see you looking.)]

I came here expecting RoFl's.

I feel betrayed.

You're just annoyed because your post count's too high. Your fault. :)

Quality, not quantity chap.


Agent merely has them both.

Well I don't actually subscribe to threads, so I guess I lose big time? :D

Green = Social people who have attended multiple HEXUS meets (check out the forum at the top :))
Red = Mods
Orange = Admins
Blue = Staff

No more important than everyone else, including the members that make these forums :)

Blue (like yours) - normal user
Green - Social member
Red - Mod
Orange - Admin
Light Blue - Staff

Edit: Damn

Don't forget the Care people all have variations too.

That was below the belt...
Edit1: Thanks for the explanations.
Edit2: I am going to stop posting now - it's sending S : P way down. (Goodnight.)

Perhaps you could be brown (green + red)?

7796:11729

390:1326 = a ratio of 1 : 3.4, so I appear to be a dogged poster.

5019:11592 .. errr, some kind of number then :)

But surely you earned Social Secretary colours with your tireless efforts? Can the honour be stripped from you, like Jeffrey Archer's knighthood will probably be?


Ooops, it appears that I accidentally killed the "Well dodgy joke thread".

That's seriously impressive. Who'd'a thought that Hexus had that many threads? ;)

Well, you learn something new each day. Actually, even some of the sub-forums have >8k posts. (HEXUS.hardware has 30,487... That's a big number.)

I'm a simple sort of guy - anything over 30,000 is big to me. (Edit: I should say that I used to only be able to do up to 20,000, but I've since done a maths degree ;).)

Come on, don't be mean. How'd you do it? I quote you, and it doesn't show that you're using special PHP tags.

Okay, you're all part of an elite circle that knows how to write backwards - an elite circle that doesn't like spammers.

Edit: I beg your pardon, "spanner". (Does that mean I'm a tool? (Don't answer that.))

1066/710 = 1.501408450704225352112676056338 (according to run\calc).
It also might be the 710th person to fall in the Battle of Hastings.

Edit: Sorry, you posted your post count after I'd started spamming replying.
