View Full Version : Question

I got a question what does leader of the leaderboard mean :confused:
You rack up points for every rank you get on a game. A 1st place on a game will give you ten points. So, with 6 1st place finishes, you'll have 60 points. Points are awarded different values from 1st place to 10th place.
And ness4k, please, PLEASE try to post a little more substance in your messages. This one was good, but quite a few of us are getting tired of you saying "that was a good one" to every single joke just to boost up your post count so you can play games.
If you keep up with these repetitive "that was a good one" posts every single day to every single joke, we will take action. You will not be able to use the arcade. The arcade is an award system rewarding those who actively take part on our forums. It is not meant to reward those who abuse the system with their on-going one-liners.
You don't have to write a book, but at least take part in discussion with a little more than "that was a good one".

Feel free to create your own account...to me that would be better. Then your husband would need to participate also. The more the merrier.

It's not a serious problem, just something that's annoyed a few of us. Nothing that can't be fixed. :)

Yes it has, and it's kind of taken the fun out of the arcade some too. I did find it amusing ness that I would get on in the early morning to check messages, various times through out the day, and then before going to bed, and 99% of the time, your account would be logged in and playing games. Just seems like over kill, even for me, just to get high scores in the arcade to try and prove some point. But I figure screw it, you can have em. I didn't get any extra money in my bank account from having the high scores anyways. :)

You didn't? Dang. The arcade pays out $100 every time a high score is beat. hmmm... :ohmy:

well most of the time early in the morning im up because i got a 4 month old daughter up and just because im logged on don't mean im always playing games and im never on late at night the lastest i've been on was 9pm but im not playing games on here 24/7 and it not all just for the high scores its mainly because i have nothing to do all day except clean house and wait to hear back to see if i got my job or not and also take care of my daughter so once i do get my job then you will be seeing less of me.

Eh, have fun ness. I am a rehabber now, so the high scores are all yours. Prefer to meet my "hommies" in SL now instead of wasting my time in arcade anyways. :)

WOW i never new that you had to post quite a bit. i just thought posting so random stuff would be ok. Just reading from the conversations above made me appreciate this site alot more. And personally the only time i am on here is during work.

Well, its been 6-10 days since he has played any games.....you managed to collect & keep your high score trophy's only since he quit playin- so I would say he was pretty decent competition.
As for no one sayin anything to him, you are incorrect. He was harassed on multiple threads about it.....he could just take the razzing.

Maybe he could pass that trait on or at least share it with another member here, who obviously thinks differently.:eek::D

well it don't bother me that people say anything about the high scores that i have and i never read any threds to where he was harrassed because of his high scores and since you know that he was harrassed were you the one saying something i mean there is a point to joking around because of the high scores but he got pissed just because i was online in the morning and at night i mean what is the big deal with me being online whenever i want. Uchinamuku you said to share the trait with another member who thinks differently what do you think about it

If someone wants to spend all day playing the arcade then fine by me. It's fun, but seems kinda pointless and I think it would get old fast. But i do like to play bejeweled for a few hours!

One reason I dislike people joining just for the games, is that it pads the member numbers. If the forum shows 200 members, I would like it if 140-170 of them would post regularly (weekly). It is kinda sad that we have 200 members, but only 20 or so post.

well it was like i said before the only reason that im online early in the morning is because i have a 4 month old daughter who is up at that time but not all the time when im online am i playing games i just keep my browser up but yet not even be around the computer but yes it does get broing after a while that why it may say im online but yet half the time im not even playing games and now that i know about having to post more then on liner in all of my post i will be doing my post weekly so im not really here just for the games i also am here to look in the meet and greet post alot trying to see if there is anyone there that i can make friends with.
I hope you find some good friends on the forums ness4k :)

HA! Believe me I wasn't pissed...Annoyed that you were on-line all the time but couldn't bother to post anymore then 5 one liners a day to play yes, but not pissed. If I were pissed, you would know!
I too hope you can find some friends, maybe get you out of the house a little!

well see it was also like i said when my husband made this account all he said was that i had to make post 5 times a day he didn't tell me that i had to do more then oneliners so if i would have known back when i started posting then i would have never done the one liners and like i also said even though it may say im online doesn't mean i am always playing games yea i do need to get out of the house but without a car now i can't even go off base anymore since my car broke down on me today so i will be suck in the house alot more now which sucks

That stinks ness, tell the husband he needs to get out there and fix it! And while he's at it, maybe give it a good wash and wax as well. :)

dk, myself, doctorP are ones off the top of my head that have given him slack about it.
DoctorP even put in his signature calling Boost a game whore.
But Boost took it in stride.
I don't think he was pissed that you were ON. (Which if you wanna be on 24hrs a day, whose business is that?!?!?)
I think it was that you were showing as online in the arcade (possible glitch that you weren't actively playing and system said you were) all the time, yet never posted IN the forum more than a 1 line/3 word remark. You didn't contribute, you know.
Honestly, I will admit, I looked at your post history one time and like 50 of the remarks were almost identical.....
We want you on here contributing, getting involved, letting us get to know you.
Which you are doing now!
I wouldn't sweat whatever he said. Times have changed and you are on & posting, REAL posts!!! YEAH!!!
You have made all the forum regulars very happy, my friend!
Yes, we really are that lame and really want people actually getting on here and talkin :)
