How many forum members does it take to change a lightbulb?
How many online forum group members does it take to change a lightbulb?
These are my observations of many OTHER forums but not this one of course! - 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. - 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. - 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. - 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs. - 53 to flame the spell checkers. - 41 to correct spelling/grammar flames. - 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb"...another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive - 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp". - 15 know-it-alls who claim *they* were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is the industry standard. - 109 to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb group. - 111 to defend the posting to this group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to this group. - 306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique, and what brands are faulty. - 27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs. - 14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's. - 33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too". - 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. - 19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three". - 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ. - 16 to post "F". - 44 to ask what is a "F". - 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" - 143 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs". - 1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.... 😉 Merry Christmas All! 🎄 |
Lol, that's fairly accurate observations!
Merry Christmas Neil; and Merry Christmas to all. |
