I ran some numbers

[GTCOMA]

fun fact for the day:

Only 10% of us make 85% of the posts on this site

 

[xHOBOPHOBIAx]

sounds about right for most forums.

And if you could put that 10% all together in one place with some bikes and beer, it would probably be one heck of a party. :idea: Gary

what would an average post length be?

I took two pages from two threads each. One from an awesome build thread... Unc :wink: and one from a more informative bike talk, Help on welding. I have the average words for the 4 pages of posts to be 60.2 words. (in the build thread most were under 50 and a lot were under 20, as I expect most build threads to be. Seeing as the average words per second typed for a decent computer user is 33, this means that on average each post would take 1.82 minutes, or 1 minute 49 seconds.

Seeing on how the top poster has 7790 posts, this would be 14177.8 minutes, which is 236.296666667 hours, which is 9.845694444 days.

9 days 20 hours 17 minutes 48 seconds.

If you want me to poll more threads, or maby one thread from each category I will.

I don't know whether to be embarrassed or proud 8) for making the list.
I know a lot of my posts are "welcome" and "looks good". I guess I'm a man of few words.
Been here for over 3 years so I've had a while to work on it.

This topic and one that appeared then vanished a couple of days ago has me wondering something.I look at this site daily . However ,I also frequent two other bicycle sites. The reason I look at different sites is I like other "areas" of bicycling besides ratrods too.I like riding and messing with three speed bikes and others that are not ratrod materials , I guess.I am suprised no one has complained about some of the "off topic" posts that I , and others have put on here . My question is , after reading this post , and the other one ,should I pick one site to use and not clutter up the others? :?:

"The other bikes" :wink:
