A new ADer's perspective
Ahem...I have been reluctant to post my opinion because I am new to this forum and I don't know anyone here. But now...what the hell...I am voting against postwhoring.
I agree with Kuifje75, VamPyroX, Freaky and others that postwhoring does more harm than good to this site. When I first read posts, I immediately got this impression that there is a competition for the highest number of posts posted. It got me wondering...why is that important? I found myself scrolling at least 5 posts down before finding a post with a full sentence. It is no fun doing that...especially when there are many threads to read. I remember reading some complaints about many people signed up and didn't post. Maybe that is one of reasons why people lost interests in this site.
Please do not take me wrong...this is a good vox populi (voice of the people) site and I love the fact that the membership is diverse. I can't think of any better site to share my interests with Deaf fellows and friends of the Deaf. The Deaf Militant debate had me engrossed. Penisarium is as entertaining as a Jerry Springer show...hilarious and shocking. I think this site has great potentials, but the postwhoring is getting in the way.
That's my two cents worth.
