    Who is king of the long posts?
    Who is, or was, the most long winded poster here at AR.com? Who is, or was, it who could type and type for so long that their posts seem to never end? There have been a few to choose from over the years. Some are still around while others have slipped away.

    RGA is the first to come to my mind. Some of his posts were like reading War and Piece. I couldn't get through most of them without stopping for lunch. It seemed like he was typing at 100+wpm. He could throw up a post in 20 minutes that would take me most of the day to read.
    To me, RGA was and is the king of typing.

    Florian did a lot of debating with RGA. I don't think that his posts even came close to the length of RGA's. But what they lacked in length were made up in pure dedication.
    This poll would not be complete without Flo on it.

    Wooch was and still is a lengthy poster. He jams a books worth of information in his, well, books.
    Wooch's posts are surpassed by none.

    Sir T is another major poster here. Like Wooch, he packs a ton of information in only a few thousand words.
    Sir T is poster of the year. If he can't post it, nobody can.

    Pixlethis is a relative newcomer, but he has had his share of long posts too. His posts can be filled with facts. He often uses those facts randomly to come to conclusions that most disagree with. But he stirs up a lot of talk, and this place needs his confrontational style to keep things interesting.
    Pixy is the new king and master.

    OzzieAudiophile is very new but is coming on strong. Sorry dude. I think you are too new to win this poll, but keep up the great work. Maybe next season.
    OzzieAudiophile is the next RGA.

    Let's not forget Resident Looser. Not only could he type forever, he could put a spin on the English language that made most people say. "Huh? WTF did he say?"
    RL was my favorite long winded poster.

    Who is is there that I've left off? Write in votes are encouraged.
    Other is better than you think. He/she is poster of the decade.

    Oh, you had to throw RL in there didn't ya? :mad2: Can I vote twice?

    Even though I don't want my vote to reflect that pix "is the new king and master"of ANYTHING, I voted for him nonetheless. Simply because he has to return fire from soooo many different positions on the battlefield.

    If he could just get the hang of the quote tags thing, it would be easier to see what I'm talking about.

    Now, if you had said who's the most creative blowhard... :D

    I vote RGA...the man was long winded.
    Most of Sir T and Pixelthis' lengths come from the numerous quotes, subtract that and RGA has'em licked.

    I wonder if there's a program that will overlay an entire discussion forum and count words based on username?:idea:

    Wait, I don't think that would help my cause anyway. Too much unrecognizable text. :nonod:

    Jeez, I take a few weeks off to study, and its like I was never here. I've had my go arounds with most of the aforementioned greats, but I don't even garner a spot on the poll.

    And considering I generally only post on XBOX/PS3 I suppose that might have hobbled me a bit.

    Man, this poll sucks.

    PS was suspended for general jackassery involving multiple IDs and other such baiting and foolishness.

    Sir T., though a battering ram, often is more a counterpuncher using quotes which may make his novels seem even longer.

    For raw data Wooch gets the award in terms April to April output.

    Ozzie's gotta get a rookie trophy of some sort...definite MVP material in the making.

    I'm purely a soundbite guy.

    Is it quality along with quantity, or just simply quantity that counts?

    That could make a signiificant difference.

    Yeah, a lot of length. Too bad we couldn't get a stat on "words per post."
    RGA would be king of WPP.

    It was a temporary thing. But I guess he decided that he didn't like us anymore.
