do you know what a post whore is?
evidently many people do not.
there are different varieties. they all have one thing in common...they do not recognize themselves.
here's a few classics:
the one who posts page after page of copy and paste with never an original thought of their own.
the one who posts 4, 5 even 6 posts back to back one after another, all usually of no consequence, sometimes just a smiley...when they could have "said" it all in one post.
the one who makes it pretty damn obvious they have not bothered to read any other posts before theirs, in fact, it's apparent they are only there to admire their own posts.
1. A newbie to an online forum who goes into overtime posting many short and usually meaningless posts in an attempt to raise their post count to pass the newbie stage ASAP.
2. A type of trolling or board saboteur where the intent of the person is to invade the forum with an annoying presence.
3. A person who is starving for attention in real life and compensates for their shortcomings in society by living in a forum and inserting their presence across the board everyday and sometimes all day. As soon as their post count breaches the highest recorded for the forum, they often begin to post frequently on the direction the board should take. It is not uncommon to see their avatars change frequently often with a theme of power. Forum members will begin to try to put the member in check but to no avail as the person is feeding off of their imaginary power to which they compensate for their lack of real world activity.
4. A person, who feels their higher post count gives them added credibility in the forum, even over people who have contributed for much longer and as such they go to great lengths to increase their post count.
5. A post whore is a virtual attention whore. The attention whore brings the same attitude into online forums where they assert their “look at me” persona by invading the board with a large presence of posts.
If you know your post count, you are a post whore. I don't even notice that crap, just the avatar. When someone changes their avatar, I'm all fucked up for a day or two...

Or check west gate, or, or ,or. or some places, counties don't even use 74, or a lot of the others either.
location makes a difference.
what was really confusing was the state police used the 12 code and we used the 10 code we had different dispatch centers ,sometimes it was interesting trying to get together on stuff.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
