Since the GS rules have become increasingly strict, more and more oldtimers have been banned. They've become an increaslingly rare sight. OT this is the question i pose to you:

Who's left, and what does it take to become one?

Let the fighting commence.

It takes time I guess?

I don't know. Why would you even make a thread like this?

I'm closing in on 5 years here. Does that classify as an old timer? It's crazy though how there are some users that have been here for 6 months and have far surpassed my post count.

The key is to post, but not to bring attention to yourself. Throw in a sarcastic barb when you can, then get the hell out. It's worked for me the past 3-4 years in OT.

Because I'm curious. There used to quite a lot of oldtimers around, but now they're gone. I decided that a question regarding the criteria would be appropriate too. Is that all?

Length of GS membership and post count. Someone whose been here several years, and posted 10k+ times is probably an old-timer.

To become an old timer, you need to watch your step. The concrete floor that is the TOS can crumble beneath you in an instant... I've only been here for two and a half years, but trust me, it seems like much more than that. >_>

Closing in on 5 years, yet my post count is lower than those who have been here a month. I only really post when it's needed, not just on random stuff. At this rate ill make my 10K party thread in 2028. Make sure you come along :P

Old timers would be someone that has been here for at least four years. Post count doesn't matter because people can post in random stuff. But if you have been here for four years and have a high level then you have seen a lot and know what is going on. ~Peace

I wouldn't consider myself an old timer, but I have been a member for what I consider a long time.

The secret is to troll quietly if you absolutely must, and even then it shouldn't be a sensitive topic, and you should never target a particular person. For example, I would make out like I am a bit of a psychopath sometimes because it gives me a lol, but I most likely will not be telling the truth (but that's what makes it funny, because I just might be). Sometimes I give honest opinions, and sometimes I throw a joke out there that may not be an obvious joke. That probably doesn't qualify as trolling, but on my end it is just a cheap laugh.

As long as the topic isn't too serious I doubt anybody will take offence.

Almost 5 years, i guess you could call me an old timer. I dont post that often really, as you can tell from my post count. I used to post in PC hardware a lot, but the same questions over and over get very boring.

Why should i care if someone got banned? They did something, they suffer the consequences.
