No. Hotcopper would have needed to obviously base their formula on past posts/TU to avoid the spam issue you raised and used the 'Opening Date of the Offer - 03 August 2016' as the effective calculation date. And that is hardly even the tip of my point Nodferatu, but of course some posters like yourself would obviously be exempt as you have highlighted.

It would need to be based on either the number of posts, the number of TU or a combination of both. There are also alot of trolls on the Hotcopper website that have a copious amount of posts with absolutely no content and little contribution.........so volume alone wouldn't work.

Anyway, it looks like it is a little too late for this conjecture as the prospectus is already in place, with little to none consideration given to the back-bone of the Hotcopper business model.........the 'posters'. A little more poster inclusion, thought and planning from the architects of the prospectus would have gone a long way to engage the most important part of Hotcopper's structure.........the 'Posters'.........who Hotcopper now have their hands out to asking for money. If Hotcopper at least had the foresight for meaningful Poster inclusion, I would have most likely participated, but given that the owners already have an exit strategy for a business model with low EBIT; it gives me absolutely no confidence at all.

And what you call 'crowd pleasing posts', I call Research and Contribution, that takes alot of time and effort. Instead of throwaway lines like 'flying dildo', you should try the 'Research and Contribution' method some time. Fellow posters afford you a TU if they feel you have added something of value. It's really not that hard to make an appreciated contribution if you try.

Lol.

It's not a pissing contest CMK. But I can see you like to measure how long it is.

I'll try to copy and paste more often
