Ever since I was falsely accused by Griffin of being Derek (whom I don't know), I have kept my posting rate at 35 posts per day or less on the margin, so as to less annoy people. I ask you people, how much should a true freedom fighter post on this site per day?

As many as you want, as long as you aren't outright spamming

No more than 10, anything else suggests too much time on your hands.

I'm tempted to say 15 because it's my average, but then again it's only my averaged because I take long breaks.

Personally, I have no real opinion on this matter.

I don't necessarily post every day, some days more often than others.

I will frequently spend 3-4  hours on a particular post when it comes to extremely detailed analysis of precinct and Census related data to crunch numbers, in order to not only analyze and dissect data, but additionally as an attempt to contribute to the overall body of knowledge. Atlas is after all, first and foremost, not just a political debating Forum, but perhaps more importantly a place of knowledge and learning hosted from an environment where academia frequently pulls data from as a bit of crowd-sourcing initiative..... the political debates, spats, and side-drama, is really just a means to both draw people in, let us regulars blow off some steam, while meanwhile the collective brilliance of Atlas Forum is being harnessed by the exploited "brain-workers" of academia to help provide some creative fuel for Masters and PhD theses..... Smiley

Ok---- so a little tongue in my cheek, but I don't think I drew blood yet in my own mouth.

Seriously, brevity on this Forum is not always a virtue, as it is frequently associated with excessively high post counts and an attempt to climb towards a rapidly advancing position on the leaderboard, which will naturally be met by extreme resistance by the challengers of whatever "bracket" one happens to exist in.... Wink

K---- Maybe that wasn't so serious.... Smiley

IDK....You do seem to post a heck of a lot, to the point where apparently a lot of people on the Forum seem to view you negatively from a wide variety of political persuasions, that has little to do with the quality of your posts, which IMHO seems to generally well reasoned and thought-out (Regardless if I agree or disagree)....

Maybe an alternative strategy would be to consider fewer posts, but longer posts, since it seems that there are many that think you are "sucking the oxygen out of the room", with the constant replies and reposts in many of the threads you are in?

Again, Eharding this is not in any way shape or form a personal critique from my perspective, but MAN you seemed to have really annoyed some people to the point that this is even a topic.... Smiley

In your particular case zero would be the most desirable number.

Seems like anything more than 10/day is a bit excessive for an average.  <goes to check my own number....worryingly.....whew>  Yeah, 10 a day seems like a good number for a "normal" high side.

No more than 15-20. Also, it doesn't matter how many posts one makes in a day, it matters the content of those posts.

Less than 20 for sure. Even less than 10 would be good, but then I'm a hypocrite

The rate actually levels off if, as many do, including me, take an extended period of time away from the Atlas.  I was MIA for over a year, which probably helped keep my post per day count down.  Smiley

Yeah, posting as Svensson before 2016 helped me keep my count down under 4. Smiley

Yeah I'd say this. Although I have no problem with people posting as much as they want if they're good, but it seems to be that most people can only say about 15-20 post-worthy things a day (yes I am 100% projecting here, I am totally aware of that Tongue).

My number is eleven. During the DNC fiasco when the Bernie supporters were booing every speaker, I made over a hundred posts in four hours.
