Do you think that the people who post 10 or more times per day on the Warrior forum are marvelous?

54 replies
I don't know where they find the time or how they get stuff done but I see some Warriors post in excess of 10 times per day almost EVERY day.

I watch them in awe and with a hint of jealousy while I look down at my massive 'to-do' list while they seem to have all of the time in the world and make numerous posts throughout the day.

I need to review my schedule.

How many people are like me and how many people are like these superbreed of Warriors who have oodles and oodles of free time?

Must dash....got another 42 things to do today before lunchtime

    Hi Gary,

    You shouldn't be jealous of people who post a lot. You should be jealous of those who seriously focus on their goals and use their time wisely.

    Just my 2 cents.

    I suspect it's because many people are like me - I sort of surface for air every hour or so and need something different to think about. Like, I've just designed a site for someone. Now I need a break before my brain re-engages. So here I am!

    I would hazard a guess that you could split these Warriors into different categories:-

    - Those who would like to create as much exposure to their signatures as possible. i.e. they are promoting an IM related product, WSO, or additional traffic for their sites and lists

    - Those who actually only spend an hour here a day, but think and write (and possibly organize their time) far better than you or I could ever hope for.

    - Those who believe that hanging out on a forum and upping their post count is considered part of their research and working day (although they may never actually take any action) - I believe the saying is "all mouth and no trousers"!

    - In addition to the first point, those who actually make a full-time income solely from this forum (WSO, Warriors for Hire and offer IM related services). If they are not on hand to speak to their potential clients throughout the day, they may risk losing business.

    Do I think their marvellous?

    Some yes...some not so much!

    Anyway what does my opinion matter, I haven't even managed to average a post a day over the last 20 months!

    Cheers

    I think because they have focused in internet marketing.
    You know, forum like this can be very good for earn money. By building good reputation on lot of forums, you can do internet marketing easier.
    If you can't post a lot, maybe it's because you have to do something else which more important.
    For them who make lot of posts, they think it is more important than another.

    Some of the posters may have products on sale and want to monitor to answer any questions that may arise.

    Personally, I am like rosetrees and visit throughout the day for a break between tasks.

      I jump in and out during the day in between tasks or when I'm tired or bored. Can answer questions or make a comment quickly - but I seldom start a thread.

      Sometimes I have a signature- sometimes not. I don't count being here as "time worked" but I do often find it entertaining.

    Steven - you crack me up.

    What's great about you is that you don't just talk the talk (over 14,000 times), you also walk the walk.

    What bothers me is when someone who has been a member for a very short time posts some massive diatribe about how to do this or that but is waaay off base. Sometimes there is a case of the blind leading the blind, but never with Wagenheim I'm glad to say - the forum could do with more posters like him...

      All kidding aside, and if you really think about this, it makes sense.

      If you are REALLY running an efficient business, you don't REALLY need to
      spend a lot of time on it. I work maybe 4 hours a week now and spend most
      of my time in the recording studio. I made 4 CDs of original music this year
      alone.

      Now, let's see how long it would take to make 10 posts even if they were
      only as long as the one I'm making now. It's probably somewhere between
      2 and 3 minutes per post.

      So if you make 10 posts in a day, you're really only spending 20 to 30
      minutes out of your day posting.

      It takes me longer to eat my lunch (Yes, I'm a slow eater)

      People make a big deal about post count, but really, if you're organized
      and have a system, it doesn't take that much out of your day.

      The ones who DO have trouble with posting, meaning they don't get
      anything else done, are the ones who aren't organized and probably
      shouldn't be here posting at all.

      It all comes down to priorities and how well you can manage your time.

      I don't have a problem with that and right now I am averaging 11.64
      posts per day.

      It really isn't all that much when you think about it.

        Quite an assumption you're making there, don'tcha think?

        Depends on the size, nature and needs of a business.

        Sure..

        I could run a small six figure business easily, but going beyond that and the "free time" you get becomes much more difficult to achieve. Depending on the nature of your business..

        Also

        An expanding business will need more active involvement to grow, than a stagnant business would.

        It all comes down to priorities and how well you can manage your time.
        This we can agree on

        Peace

          Touche. Though not sure why James gets a thanks for his assumption
          and I get a lecture. Whatever.

          But you're right. The larger the business, the less free time you have.

          I don't want to run a large business. I worked hard for my free time and
          don't want to give it up. I make enough to keep me happy.

          If I do decide to put more time into something (like a side project I am
          working on now outside of the IM niche) it will be because I want to and
          NOT because I have to.

          In fact, this little project may be the most fun I've had in a long time.

          No, I don't look at it as work because it's something I really want to do.

          But I guess that's another thing that we can debate, whether something
          is work or not.

          Another time maybe.

        Agreed. I get my work done, and then I check out the Warrior forum. It's pretty easy to get sidetracked in here with all the threads going, but if you're efficient with your work, it shouldn't be a problem.

    I post when I am having a break from building my business as I work on my own mostly so it is a welcome break sometimes to pop here rather than watching TV or gazing out of the window!

    Also it's useful for gaining information or helping other people if you see a post where a warrior is having a problem and you have the knowledge to fix it.

    dont you keep a couple ofwindows or tabs open?

    So, as another poster related, when done with one TO DO, a break maybe the WF.

    And if you are "tracking" certain posts or people, or if you are involved in a thread, it would not be uncommon to post several times a day.

    I do think it has to do with, as S. Wags says, organization of your business model and time.

    I really don't notice what other people are doing here. I look for PEOPLE and/or intersting threads.

    Now, I've got go go post 9 more times today. Bye.

    It must take up some of your time keeping track of how many posts people are making. I never gave it a thought. Probably why I have more time to post.

    I work at home ... by myself (with 2 dogs), so it's nice to take breaks and see what's going on and make some posts and connect with a few people. Really doesn't take much time.

      I think it takes a lot of time to count how many posts each people make everyday, track that people to see if they're posting daily or weekly... I prefer to use that time to make some comments if I find the thread interesting.

      I work at home ... by myself (with 2 dogs), so it's nice to take breaks and see what's going on and make some posts and connect with a few people. Really doesn't take much time.
      Work at home too and yes, sometimes just feel good to come here for a 30 minutes break and see what's going around... and sometimes I post in some threads.

    i dont thinsk that anyone that can post 10X a day if they did it consitantly for over a year or more could not make money .... ther reason i say this is because every post had a therad reading becaus ethey read the thread they hope fully learned something small taht could be 10 small things learned a day .... but I doubt anyone who posts just for their post count not to add value or get value will be able to sustain it for too long....

      You need to be very careful and not just judge someone based on post count.

      Some of us are just yapolicious, and have way too many opinions. (just made up a new word hee hee)

      I also wouldn't assume someone is successful or knows what they are talking about just because they have a lot of posts.

      I have seen plenty with post counts higher than mine (when I first joined) who were still wandering the halls aimlessly.

        Very true Jill. Post count means nothing, other than maybe what I pointed

        Im sorry if someone has spend 3000 posts doing nothing but posting and not made money In away i still respect their tenacity ; and maybe they are not great doers but that much time spent on here i am sure they know the theory behind every thing IM so i would still respect them for that .... I think for that it would be very sad to know one has spent so much time on a money making forum with so much valuable information and not used it for your own good.

        As a very new warrior (using my husbands old account ) i have been doing it for maybe 2 weeks ... what is the first thing i noticed when i saw a Steven W, post was that post count... so yes that should not be the only judge of a persons knowledge but i have posted maybe 40 times in 2 weeks myself and i have learned ALOT!!! imagine afte 1000,,,3000,,,15000 posts.

        P.S i hope i get to read the 15000th post from Mr Wagenheim ,

          Why does it matter how many times someone post?

          I don't know about you but 3000 posts from me on other forums equals lots of traffic and sales.

            I find it truly fascinating that anybody even cares how many posts
            somebody has or how much time they spend on this or any other forum.

            There is absolutely NO correlation between post count and success.

            Some people who hardly post here at all are very successful, just like
            some who hardly post here at all hardly make any money at all.

            Same thing with the people who post a lot. Some make a lot of money and
            some make nothing.

            Look at the quality of the posts that the person makes.

            THAT is what you should go by and NOTHING else.

    Most of the posts will be complete or partly:

    "BS,BASHING other people thinking that they're expert,rants,solutions for problems and other stuff that will either disrupt the unity of this forum, irritate others or will be pretty useful for members in this forum..."

    To be frank with you,very few WARRIORS have impressed me in this forum ever since I started to visit this site 3 years ago (I became a member after a few months in 2008)

    If people like STEVEN Wagenhaim,Allen Graves,Kevin Riley,Jared Alberghrini, Jeremy Kalsal,Eric Louviere and a few others make 10 posts here,I'll definitely will read and listen to their point as I think they're "marvelous"..Even if one of them make 1 post, I can still find gold in their threads..

    Here's why:

    Steven,Allen and Jeremy have frequently contributed their expertise related to ARTICLE MARKETING many times. Every time you mention the word ARTICLE MARKETING, these are the people that'll come to my mind

    As for Eric Louviere,I like his inspirational posts where he'll motivate others or failing marketers with plenty of hints to start thinking positively and succeed.

    Here's one of my fav posts from him:

    I like Jared due to his technical expertise and every time he posts something here,I'll try to benefit from it somehow.

    Here's why:

    And lastly I like Kevin Riley for his humorous nature and straightforward approach in selling his products. Just check out his videos and you'll know why..

    I've been fans of these people in this forum for a long time here and I always look forward for their posts. Whether it's 1 or 10 posts from any one of them,I still think they're "marvelous"

    PS:I didn't purposely write about those people to impress them but to just point out how much I value their presence in this forum.

    PPS: I also like Sean Donahoe's stuff due to his revolutionary IM products that really impressed and made money for me

      I don't post 10 times a day - but I am marvelous, thank you very much:p

      It's not posts per day - but long term, consistent participation that I admire. There are some who post frequently when they are promoting something - and that's fine. There are those who post like crazy with the mindset of getting enough posts to be seen as "credible" and maybe that works for them.

      And some have been posting for years without worrying about what their post count is or what others think about it. I have less than 6 posts a day - but that adds up after a few years, doesn't it

      I've been around the block a time or two. I've had accounts at all sorts of marketing forums, from Wicked Fire to Digital Point to (forgive me for saying this) Black Hat World, and now here at Warrior Forum. The one thing that I noticed about these forums were that, the people who have the highest post counts are not always the most contributing.

      Take a forum I am a part of, for example. It's called Cheating Network (cheatingnetwork.net). This place is a pool of 14 to 18 year old kids (generally) who make their time buying and selling ipods and Xbox games, and trying to find ways to trick GPT sites. I like a lot of the community there, so I made an account, helped out, and stuck around.

      But like a lot of forums, reputation (and/or thanks) is a good way of telling the quality of the member as related to the post count. There is a member on that forum who has over 7,800 posts. He's been a member there for well over two and a half years, and is a frequent subscriber. The thing is, his reputation there is 298, less than 5% of his post count.

      However my account, Rodite, has 250 posts, and a rep of almost 500. I've been there for close to six months, and my presence has shocked that community to the core, started some turmoil, and helped mature the community to the point where several of them, under my guidance, have jumped off of the GPT bandwagon and started into true web creation and marketing.

      Basically, what I'm trying to say here is that it's not the number of times per day that you post (although it appears that regardless of post count, a lot of members here make it a point to make their posts detailed and elaborate), but the quality of the information that is posted.

      Would you rather have 20 posts, one line each, that make no sense and offer nothing to the community, or one post that makes the difference on hundreds of dollars for several members of the community? I believe the question answers itself.

      It's great to finally be a member here, and I look forward to contributing as much as I can to the Warrior Forum community, as well as networking with as many of you as I possibly can.

      Jay, Rodite Web Solutions CEO

      Jay, welcome to the forum. Judging by your first post here, I think you're
      going to become a valuable contributor.

        10 posts isn't a lot =/... I am awake 16-18 hours a days, I spend 6-10 of that working, 8-10 hours of free time . Could I work longer, sure but I don't want to :p.

    No, I do not think so. I am a fan of diff. IM forums, but I do not post a lot. I do not get that much instead. So, there is nothing great in it. If you have time then it is good to help others by posting your stuff.

    Different work styles.

    Most of the time, I post on the WaFo when I'm thinking about something. Right now, I'm working through the next segment of a video I'm recording, and while I work out what goes here and how it leads into the next bit... I'm here reading and writing posts. It doesn't actually interrupt what I'm doing.

    I generally have the good old-fashioned pen-and-paper in my lap when I'm on the forum. Technology aside, there's no better way to make quick notes and sketches.

    There are still extended periods of time that I need to focus completely on what I'm doing (like when I'm actually recording and editing the video), and I won't be posting during those times. In fact, I'll usually have my browser closed altogether.

    I really don't get too hung up on how many times a person has posted here at WF. What I do admire is the people who consistently post great content on this forum.

    Forums are a great way to brand yourself, there is no denying that. However, I myself try to contribute valuable content when asked. Very rarely do I post one-liners saying "yeah I agree with that."

    It just does not add any value to the forum. Just remember: Don't be impressed by a person's post count, but instead monitor the quality of their posts to see if they are really contributing to the forum.

    Steven Wagenheim and Tim Gorman are two of the guys who consistently contribute valuable contents and insights to this forum.

    Yes, I'll come clean - whenever I feel too lazy to work - I hop in here and see what other are up to.

    At first I restricted my forum posting to Sunday evenings
    Then I got busy and didn't post for 3 months (an all time new record)
    Then the addiction set in again and now I'm posting every evening from 10 - 12

    Any "warrior forum" rehab centres you can recommend anyone?

    Please help me!!!!!:confused:

    Yeh, I envy those people who can control this addiction that is the WarriorForum.

    I've started to post more frequently lately, but my post frequency greatly fluctuates. I might post 20 in one day and not post for 2-3 weeks, or I might post a few times.

    I might take the opportunity to help or to have a laugh, to challenge or to simply agree and show my thanks.

    Dunno, guess it just depends on whether the forum is open in the background and I refresh the main index page. Because if that happens - I'm gonna post something! So many interesting discussions going on.

    Being on this forum is a silent hobby for me. I enjoy reading some of these topics, but otherwise my life does not revolve around the forum.

    Real life and work commitments far outweigh this site.
