Were there really not that many people posting during early OT years? I have to do some investigation on that…

I took from the denizen list, the denizen requirement were low so I expect abraker calculations to hold up, also, I dqed a lot of people that were once considered denizen because they did not meet in standard

What would you know, I did an independent (lesson learned, never trust the government) research and found names that are missing. Some are more preeminent, others are more mysterious. Perhaps, some names were simply erased as time went by or it could be an intentional cover-up… Whichever it is, we must find the truth together.

should meet the post count requirement for 2007-08, if you consider Other subforums to count.

An observation: a lot of people seem to only be active starting in the second half of 2009. Is there some reason for that? I'll continue on my journey through dusty archives later, for now I'll try to lay low for a bit. I think someone is tailing me, but rest assured I'll get back to you saf

I dislike this in the sense that postcount doesn't reflect impact.
There have been some individuals that were memorable if only for the fact that their ratio of quality posts was wildly exceeding that of other denizens while still showing a modicum of activity to be considered part of the landscape.
As an example of that I would like to call out schism.
Although few in posts and partially lost to the currents of time as their expressive image usage can no longer be witnessed due to dead links, he's one of the posters of my "era" I will never forget.
Every single time I saw a new thread by them I was immediately excited because there was no doubt it was going to be good before even clicking on it. In that sense, schism is much more memorable to me than many shitposters from "my time" and due to their strong and consistent roleplaying my impression of them is much more clear than that of some other posters of my time.

While I won't bother to argue against acceptance through quantity to cater to those uninspired and lacking in creativity, this should never lead to quality posters not being recognized.
None should ever feel forced to vomit a load of garbage into this subforum to gain some accolade of questionable value and be accepted by those rolling around in the mud and racking up their postcount with head-keyboard-smashes. Get good.

What this system does achieve better is recording and preserving a historical landscape of OT, you get a better grasp of people who were posting in the past, you can see people fading away or suddenly popping and disappearing. The overlap of users is especially good, because once you get the denizenship, that's it, you get tied to a specific generation even if you were active for entire generations.

Ultimately, just be aware that that denizen list never followed any criteria but was basically just a subjective "people that were memorable part of the landscape" impression by abraker. None cared at the time and it was just a funny thing in hindsight. faiswusuf didn't have nearly enough posts to qualify according to your new criteria originally but they became a central part of subforum culture in a flash, overshadowing poor plotter.

Also due to the changes to the denizen system over the years, it's really nto even useful to see impact either, the only way ot really have a pure impact of influence would be to remake it again with that intention all over again

Patatitta, do you have a list of denizens who did not make it? I just had an idea that they could qualify if we take into account wastelanded threads. Might not work for everyone, but some really fringe cases could be resolved with this.

The new osu web layout would make more sense due to the old forum website being nonexistent right now

But it's going away soon, should archive profiles ASAP. I would say pre-2018 eras should have old-style userpages.

Not many names this time. I don't think my methodology is wrong, it's just that… there wasn't a lot of people posting at a constant rate in 2013-2015, everyone was mostly isolated in ITT2. If you ever think current threads are bad, look into 2014-2015 threads and be amazed how good you have it.

some things never change

SHOULD BE FIXED: there is Vext and Vext_old in both 2011 and 2012, my bad.

In photoshop or any other image editor you can have a few layers with the right colors and everything, and then you paste their avatars along with the name and optionally the flag+title.

Bump, i'm starting to work on making this thread pretty, I have thought of a compact way to include images for all users, however, i'm afraid that the uneven position may trigger some people, as I don't know how to make the exact same crop each time and opening photoshop for EVERY image would take forever



Do anyone know how to make it even each time?, or another way I could do it?

I've also tried using the portraits, however, this is also uneven, so you cant really make rows that would look great, would take too much space going down

Patatitta wrote:

found an easier way to do it by searching the username in the user search, taking a screenshot of my monitor. Repeat that for all the names, put it all into photoshop, mass select all layers, crop them all, and export them all individually, then mass drop and upload into catbox




now time to repeat for everyone
