Getting my 50 to reply

[Patriot86]

Many newcomers fret about the 50 post thing, and I find most of them to fall in one of two categories:

1. The new/inexperienced social media user who is not comfortable with online communication; or

2. The user who thinks that the rules are stupid and don’t/shouldn’t apply to them.

I get the vibe that you @Patriot86 fall into the first category. Most of us have been around since this place was created and have seen a lot of people come and go. We’ve seen some newcomers go off on tirades, we’ve seen some go on posting runs to try to get to their 50 in an hour just so they can buy their shiny object, and we’ve seen some take a few years to get to their 50 because they are not big talkers but lurk and read EVERYTHING.

The key to it is just to be yourself and reply to conversations that genuinely interest you, with real replies that you would say in person. Nothing any more difficult than that.

Welcome aboard!

Yeah im not to much of the social media type I might be in my middle age now but very old school. But I'll also do what it takes to be able to be apart of something especially if I like it. I appreciate the feed back , and thank you

Is it hard to get to the 50 messages to be able to reply to folks I just want to buy few rifles for hunting.. indiana has different rules for public land than I'm use to don't know anyone out here yet with private to use what I have so just seeing how I can get this done to be able to respond to yall

Look at my post count. How hard can it be? I, like the guy in the movie, am not the smartest man. But it just isn't that hard to go through a bunch of threads, give your thoughts, respond and have a conversation with people.

Ask about "wallet" "boating accident" or claim you like burger king... or glock is better than 1911s.

That will also get you 50 posts

The Golden Key to 50, is pineapple on pizza.

Anything related to bacon!

Bacon will win some points, but add it to pineapple... on a pizza.
That not only receives the Golden Key, but makes one unbannable.

In highschool I worked at Donatos mainly on the make line. Pinapple was common. The only topping I refuse to have on any pizza I am eating is anchovies. I'll take pineapple and mushroom and be good - compared to anchovies.

When did it switch to "word of the day"?
All this time I've been angling to find "the phrase that pays"!
No wonder I can't bump to 50.

I think you mean “woid of the day”.
