i am a member of another site for motorcycles I probably know more about this particular brand of motorcycles than many of the other members on the board with a few exceptions. however my status as a poster is a newbie, because i just joined the group a few weeks ago.
Now i didn't email the administrators and say to them i don't like your ranking system i am an advanced person i have knowledge beyond that of most posters. so you should change my status.
But because i understand as many others should that this is just a feature that comes with the territory. lots of other sites have similar features. As time goes by my ranking on that site will increase in level as i continue to post to threads. And everyone on the site that knows me, knows my character the knowledge i have about motorcycles and what my abilities are concerning motorcycles, and that i am not a newbie at all. The other posters that may not know me will find out in short order who i am.
So just like this site many people know me from my posts i see them praise one another yet i rarely see or read anyone remarks that i am a good predictor. however my prediction statistics speak for themselves. I rarely pay any attention to what numbers people posts in threads except the people who are constantly proving there methods work. Does this have anything to do with their posting level not by a long shot.
A person can join this site today post 3 numbers in their first post that win tonight and it wouldn't mean a thing except they posted some picks that won. By the same token a person whom has been on this site for years could post some picks and win and it wouldn't surprise me in the least.
There status as a poster has nothing to do with their caricature just as you don't judge a book by it's cover. you can't judge a poster by there amount of posts they make but you can by the quality of what they post.
Some people are posting just to post something many times it has nothing to do with the lottery at all. Idle chit chat. And thousands of post by people complaining about someone's abilities to predict numbers or their methods.
