We need an Intervention for ProMinx!

[colossus]

Help! This has been an emergency. Can't you see he's throwing his life away. He won't even admit it's a problem. He says he's doing it to stay away from studies when in fact he will be posting all summer when he has no school!

I say we approach him as friends and stop this thing right now! He would do the same for us! Maybe we should start a support group?

------------------
Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it...

[ProMinx]

hey, i posted in the "you know you're an ApexAddict if..." thread (go figure), so at least i know that i have a problem. Heh heh. Actually, this page loads to slowly on my 56k modem at home, so i'll probably either lay off for a while...or i'll sign up for freedsl or something like that...
ProMinx
ps - oh yeah, i forgot to mention that i actually thought of paying for a cable modem connection (i live in a sparsely populated area, so my bandwidth would be pretty unshared) just to support my...err...i meant Apex addiction.

Just look at the post times... less than 15 min before a response from ProMinx... that's just scary

[Sjarred]

I don't know man, some of you other guys are pretty high up there with ProMinx.....right hapoo??? We might have more victims then we think.

[hapoo]

hehehe

Hang on here....why my name? I haven't posted as much this last week. I haven't had the time like I wish I did. Hapoo you are still the man...no matter how many posts Prominx gets

[hapoo]

[revil]

Oh, great. Now your just giving hapoo a big head.

[hapoo]

hehe

[Gh0st-In-The-Machine]

I still think I hold the most posts in one day record..well..actually,one night about 5 hours.I had about 170 posts in one night.

[Speedfreak]

heh... pretty soon there is going to be a page added to Got Apex? for # of posts by users or a top ten.

[hapoo]

they should add that!!!

[ProMinx]

i'm all over that suggested post place. he heh...eat my dust. Speaking of dust, no one cares about the coke/crack addiction? Oh well. I guess there is a larger anti-post than anti-drug sentiment here; oh wait...we're mostly students; that explains that.
ProMinx
ps - intervene this!

People know that GotApex posting and deals are much more addictive than the coke/crack addiction.

There better be no crack bashing here.

[ProMinx]

respectfully withdrawn

[colossus]

I wouldn't mind seeing some crack deals. Those whores on the corner are just getting too expensive with the labor market getting tight

Plus I need the crack to stay awake in med school. How do you think we can pull 36 hour shifts

------------------
Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it...

[Sjarred]

Wasn't it one or two days ago that ProMinx reached 500 posts?? Dang, he's now at 565!!!!! I'm only managing 10-15 a day.

[This message has been edited by Sjarred (edited 05-24-2000).]

[ShawnLee]

Only 10-15,
wow. Thanks to school and the Army, I'll belucky to post 10-15 this wohle summer. I'm getting my kicks in right now before I leave. When do you guys study? Or is this not in your philosophy.

[ShawnLee]

I just thought of something,
we should run some study on the people addicted to posting, I could monitor my brother, and one of the psychology grad students could set up shop at UCLA for all our Bruin buddies here.

The research question could be something like number of hours spent in real relationships vs. number of posts per month.

[Sjarred]

My philosophy of studying is that if I can't remember something in the first 3mins. I just won't be able to remember it. So why bother....
O'well, I would like to make some more post but I have to write my paper. See, I'm not addicted to this place.......then again, maybe I should make one or two more post before I start my paper...

[MadCool]

Study? What's study? I want that crown symbol too!!! Only a few more hundred to go!

The Race is On....hehe.

[ProMinx]

hey, i dn't care about the crwon symbol anymore...now i want the light blue eagle... . I'm not just at 565 now...i'm over 600, and i'm not showing any signs of stopping, although with my recent blizzard fascination (diablo ii and starcraft), i have noticed a dramatic slowdown. I'm actually going at a slower rate than some other people, for the first time since i started posting. Oh well.
I haven't anything important to say recently...and i'm trying to have some fun now that i'm thoroughly dick-slapping my classes . You gotta love unexpected good grades (econ is raping me (unexpectedly) though...). My econ midterm was a biotch. Oh well. In case you guys didn't figure it out, i'm condensing like...5 posts into 1 here. I'm tired...oh well...i'm dragging way way way way on...maybe you should intervene and force me to go to bed. I stay up so late recently...but i don't have to wake up for class tomorrow...

[ProMinx]

oh yeah, what kindof crack deals are you looking for? do you want price matches, coupon stacking, gift certificates, "find-the-****ing-rabbit" contests, or just straight out staples-style typographical errors? I'll see what i can find.

[colossus]

All the signs were there. Why did I not see it coming. I could have saved Hapoo and NiceMann from this....this...this life of POSTING MADNESS!!! (*lets loose a cry heard around the world*)

Why, God, why. If only I had acted....if only I had known!

Leon, I think we have to drug Hapoo. In fact, I think NiceMann is actually Hapoo and he's simply responding to his own posts.

Wait, I've made 30 posts in the last 3 hours regarding Hapoo and Nicemann...no, it can't be happening! I'm infected!

Quick, save yourselves! Don't look at the post reply button. Run while can! Run! Save yourselves..........

------------------
Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it...

[tongyang]

hahahahaha.....

Oh wait. I just posted a reply RUNNNNN!!!
