Funny stats....

[JonPurpleHaze]

for these forums have been here since the site transfer...

I've never linked to them because some stuff is kinda screwed up but ignore the top part of the page and get ready to chuckle...

bob is happiest, go-set is punkest!

[tiltjlp]

Great link Jon, I haven't laughed that much in a long time. I've bookmarked it and plan to check it out now and again, whenever I have a really bad day. Thanks for the lift, JPH

That was pretty interesting, I think I am the happiest VP'er I'm even happy when I'm giving someone "hell"

I really try to just have fun, sometimes I may go a little overboard, but there are so many stuffed shirts that hang out in the Pinball forums that it blows my mind. Pinball is supposed to be fun, it is not supposed to be some serious head up your ass game like chess or golf. I like chess, but I would never stick a quarter in a chess table

I'm glad you're back Jon and I'm also glad John is back too.

How did I get 3rd punk, with zero punk posts? Mind you I did have a mohawk once, in my early twenties, those were the days.

[Kinsey]

What's a punk post?

[JonPurpleHaze]

Punk is.....

what Punk does....

None of us can argue with these stats.....

I need to mellow out, I was most excited but strive to get punkier....

[JonPurpleHaze]

I took Punkest People Poster over!

On a sad note, bob is still Happiest People Leader...

[PacDude]

And John once called ME a windbag. Well I'm not the one with the longest post....

I'm only 5 on average post length even.

[tiltjlp]

You still are a windbag Dude. It just so happens I tend to agree with you more than I did in the past, so I don't mind it nearly as much. I know I'm even worse, but then, I always have something of substance to say. :P And with 350 more posts than anyone else, I'm naturally going to lead in a lot of areas.

John

[PacDude]

. Yeah, I never have substance. Besides, I post more at VPF, although the ban there got me behind (but I had the post count lead at VPFF when it was around).

[TheManFromPOST]

that list must be wrong!!!!!! :S
I alwasy felt that Pacdude was the most verbose person on the planet :P

sex bum poo, I am sorry, but I cannot swear with an old fart like Tiltjlp alway being such a nice guy

Of course, "I'm" the happiest!! That doesn't mean I make "others" happy

[TheManFromPOST]

Bob you make me happy


I am happy that you are waaaayyyyy over there :P

[tiltjlp]

Hey Posty, I'm not nearly as nice as I seem, I just use trick mirrors. And just beause I don't swear doesn't mean you can't if you feel a need to, just try to keep it on the mild side. Anything goes at these @#%&%# forms. :P

John

[bob]

Hey, ManFromPostToasties, I'm not way over there. I'm up above and you're down under.

[TheManFromPOST]

after reading this post, I asked at my 'other' favorite forum if they kept such statistics
The only one that they would divulge is 'what browser' were we using

Netscape 4.x 61.12% of all sessions....Mozilla firefox 0.9
Netscape 5.x 18.24% of all sessions....Mozilla firefox 1.0
Unknown 10.47% of all sessions....probably googlebots
MSIE 5.x 4.26% of all sessions
AOL 4.x 2.79% of all sessions
Opera 3.x 1.13% of all sessions
Netscape 3.x 0.94% of all sessions
Lotus-Notes 0.68% of all sessions
MSProxy 2.x 0.19% of all sessions
MSIE 4.x 0.13% of all sessions
Netscape 2.x 0.03% of all sessions
AOL 5.x 0.00% of all sessions
WebTV 2.x 0.00% of all sessions

suprising how many people don't use Internet Explorer

I'm not surprised, this is a hack/mod that was added to the forums and it's highly improbable that they have stats like that...

I also wonder what site and time frame the above stats are based on, they look skewed, I don't like IE but the figure for it should be much higher, unless it's a small site with a few people using Netscape.

[tiltjlp]

I'm amazed that more people don't use Opera. It has IE beat every which way. Too bad Opera's not an OS too.

[PacDude]

Netscape 4.x has nothing to do with Firefox, AFAIK. That's pre-gecko even. 3.x is even harder to believe. 6.x and 7.x are the Gecko versions of Netscape. And isn't MSIE at 6.x now? Maybe that is what is showing up as Netscape 4.x

[TheManFromPOST]

Those stats are from a computer enthusiasts forum
Most users will change anything/everthing about their system

Changing to another browser is so easy, even I can do it :P
Most users there do use Firefox

[bob]

TMFP, those stats don't seem possible... Here is VPF stats

[TheManFromPOST]

I am not argueing, but I do know my fellow forum users, and the do not prefer Internet explorer

Vpf would be a different kettle of fish, very few (statisticaly) visitors would be posters, most are there just for the free downloads
And of the people who do post, umm how can I say this, they are older and a bit set in their ways
