Yeah, I remember watching this video, and it's kind of incredible it also applies here, or on any forum.

And of course you have the guy who posts like 3 times more than the 2nd best poster (/me looks at DJ)

TBH, I don't under stand how @DJ Omnimaga is able to formulate a reply to every post, even if the post doesn't have much to do with him :P
Looking down at the "Recent Posts", all I see is green. And DJ's name is green :P

It depends. Sometimes I read posts then mark them as unread until I have time to reply. :P

So it looks like this stuff is happening in ice hockey too, now:
http://www.hockeydb.com/nhl-attendance/att_graph_season.php?lid=QMJHL1970&sid=2016

This is the average attendance (crowds) for Quebec Major Junior Hockey League this season so far O.O

And ironically, Quebec is involved, just like my CodeWalrus and Omnimaga post counts. :P

Woo, I'm #15 on that list. Only thing is, 8675/15=578.333... ...which is 369.333... more than I have.

Time to start spam posting replying meaningfully to every single post on CodeWalrus (-_(//));

Err.. I probably posted that at like 2am because I forgot to put a link with it xD but if you look at most popular boards by activity it adds up to well over 100% and Newsletters are at 100% by themselves :P https://codewalr.us/index.php?action=profile;area=statistics;u=1

If you did that you would have to reply to posts that were posted before you joined and up to now, then you would have over 28000 posts, then you start replying to yourself and well, it would never end O.O

Blame staff for rarely replying to my staff-only posts. :P

As for replying meaningfully, it helps to also post some project updates and focus on replying to other people's projects (non-calc, hardware, calc, art, music) first, then reply to other stuff later. I tend to alternate when I have free time :P
