I was bored, so I whipped up a quick spider to find the top 50 posters. Enjoy!

#3 used to be Bob IIRC... wonder how he ended all the way to #14.

I thought the list was missing X-G, so I checked, and sure enough X-G is #3. Not sure why it didn't find him. Weird.

[edit]
It was a problem with one of my regexes, it thought his username was XG and not X-G. I've fixed the regex to include dashes now.

The proper name of this is the Steve Terry List. You aren't 1337 like him until you can compile this manually. :)

Spellcaster's still up there ... why does Korval have a 1 on his name?

I could have compiled it manually, but I wanted it to be 100% accurate, not trial and error and hopefully getting everyone. ;)

But for the record, it spit it out all unordered (I was too lazy to sort it programatically), so I had to sort that list by hand.

It's showing the "real" name, not user name. I keep forgetting I actually signed up with my actual name.

Oh, actually it is Korval. But some usernames had some artifacts from the console (I printed the status then a \r, then when it found a Top-50 it printed it to that line, so that 1 was part of the numbers I was printing to monitor the status), and I missed that 1 when I cleaned it up. Oops.

Haha your spider code is still flawed then. Just curious how long it took you to compile the list? BTW how are your balls feeling? ;D ML may still castrate you.

Well, it took less than 2 hours. I started the spider, then watched a movie, and 2 hours later it was done.

And I checked with a few people as far as how much to limit the requests, and the 2-3 requests per second my spider did was deemed to be fine. When I was crawling, I checked the online users list and Yahoo Slurp! was hitting it WAY heavier than my spider, so I'm hoping what I did was fine.

[edit]
Hell, Yahoo Slurp is hitting the site pretty good right now. Check out Online Users. :P

Wow, I suck. All those years and I can't even make top 50 :).

[edit] Well, at least I'm in the top 100 now :P.

Just keep telling yourself "quality, not quantity."

Do both. Ah, another quality post!

I was 49 the other day. Michael must be barely ahead...

Wait, holy crap, I'm 50? I need to get a life. :P

Matthew thanks you, BAF :P I can't believe I am still 5, I have been posting around 5-10 posts per day only.

I just took the name from the URL a.cc redirected me to when I got their forum stats (/members/blah/forums).

Can you attach the whole list?

Edit: Whoa, I'm in the top 200. That's a surprise in itself. I didn't think I posted much.

I didn't generate one past 50. I could generate a list ranking every forum user, but ML would be more likely to castrate me from running my spider yet again. :P

If you really want one, I'll generate it though.

I was #1, man! And then, work happened. Ah well, such is life.

Also, I need to fix my avatar. It's still showing xmas-Bob.

Great minds think alike. Either that, or beta 2 of Allegro 5 has working mind control.

I used to be in the top 50, but my posting dropped to like less than once a day on average...

So does this list represent how strong we are in the cyber-world?

Maybe it's like Mortal Kombat and the challengers have to fight Onewing first, all the way up to the impossible 23yrold3yrold. ???
