RAC climbing still Andy. Could it be sustainable?


It's still hanging in there. Never got the additional PC today, so still room for improvement.

518 and climbing.

Will the post number match Andy's RAC before the outrage, then?

You could get there by a judicious extra thick helping of spam posting ... like this!

But it then becomes a real competitiom, too unfriendly and bumping each other ... not to mention the additional load on the servers, which has been shown to be significant about 18 months ago

No, not cheating but blocking

If you keep posting the same message at 3-4 second intervals you can send so many through the thread is swamped and other posters will not get their one on the boards.

And purple is demonstrating she knows how to play the spamalong game!

How do you think I got so many posts notched up?

I wouldn't want to mess things up for other people anyway. The forum is here for all to have fun, so if we break things, we bugger it up for everyone.

That is the reason we agreed to limit this competition thread to about 1,000 before starting a new thread.

The very first one got so competitive that some 1,500 posts were posted within 10 munutes. The thread was eventually locked by Eric when about 43,000 posts had been logged.

It was not the number of posts that got it frozen, but the competitive element of the participants to gain podium time during the Outrage.

Hello there Purple. Nice to see you!
