It always seems like people have some sort of milestone that they're going for, whether they're long term or short term. And most users seem to have a "favorite" stat that they concentrate the most on increasing. Which one is your favorite? (I'm counting pretty much anything that you can increase the numbers of on Vizzed)

Mine would have to be CP, post exp, and post rating. The number of posts you have don't really matter if you've spammed to get them that high, and I think CP shows how much you've contributed more than anything else (well, your contributions after the system was implemented). I think post exp also says something about how much thought you've put into your posts as well (yes, you could also add a lot of fluff, but articulating your responses also increases your post words). And post rating, while it's definitely not the most objective system by a long stretch, is one of my favorites. It's nice to see that people actually like my posts xp.

Hard to say for me, most I don't. Because normally when I post or if its to do with anything else of my stats I don't really bother to take it into consideration for a reason. Maybe it saves the stress not to worry about something that you shouldn't really about. I just check from time to time to see where I am stat wise but this wouldn't be all the time. And I don't really have any favourite one I just don't. I just post or do what I need to do. '-'

Believe it or not, my Online Time on the Minecraft server.

For one it's important for my quota but I'm like 4th in total time and I'd like to remain in at least the top 5.

Couldn't care less about the other stats (aside from quota) but if I see I'm getting closer to a certain milestone I might push for it just so I have something extra to do.

For me, it would be only CP and Post Exp to be honest. 

This is because I earn CP every time I do my staff job on the site. I'm the one/only Miscellaneous System Manager of the site (ever) and I want to at least be a good one. 

As for post exp, it's pretty much the same reason as ZeroTails mentioned so no need to repeat it. 

I don't care too much about post ratings because it's possible to earn a lot of post ratings from one random joke that doesn't contribute much to the site. But at least you might have gave others a good laugh so definitely nothing wrong with that. I'll admit that I earned many post ratings from stupid jokes before to be fair. Not necessarily a bad thing unless it's spam.

One more thing to mention, all stats are not perfect. Like for instance, you can earn a ton of CP from rating stuff. It's still contributing to the site, but rating stuff alone and doing nothing else isn't much of a contribution. And it's possible for post count to be diluted with random short spammy posts. These are just 2 examples.

Regardless, stats are still a very good thing to represent how much you have contributed to the site, but it's not perfect.

Probably Post Rating. High post rating makes me think I'm a cool and funny guy. Although a low post rating doesn't really have any impact on me, I'd prefer to avoid it. Being a funny guy is fun~

I don't really care about any stat on Vizzed, but if you were going to make me choose, I would pick post rating I guess. Milestones are nice and you feel good when you get to them but it's not THAT important to me. I just like being on Vizzed.

Mine would have to be CP Post EXP. and Post Rating.

I'm really trying to buff my CP count to show how much I have (and will) contribute to the site. It gives me a great sense of pride knowing my efforts are recognized, if only by a number in my profile.

The Post EXP like you said shows how much I've actually contributed to the forum. I really try to add as much as I can to each post / discussion, and I'd like my Post EXP to show that.

And Post Rating, though entirely based on other's opinion, makes me feel like my posts are well done, or at least something others can agree with or relate to.

The points that I put the most emphasis on happen to be posts, post exp, and CP. For posts, I have made a ton, im closing in on 25K posts now which would be a pretty big deal and I hope to pass 23K posts in under 3 years. Im a huge fan of words too and hope to pass 2 million eventually, maybe next year, and my biggest strength has to be CP, where I hope to cross 100K over the next 2 to 3 months if I can do enough stuff, and if I can keep up a good pace I might be able to pass David some time this year or next year.

Between CP and Post Experience, I think I'll go with the latter.

Hailing from a country where English isn't a main language, it's important for me to post as many words as I can to maintain my proficiency and sometimes to expand my vocabulary. The words per post average also shows how much thought I put into all my posts, and I feel keeping it a high value says a lot about a user.

I brag about being a CP hunter, not only because of my staff roles since this comes from even before I was made staff. It's a "competition" where you can compete on nearly equal grounds with everybody, as some people is strong in certain areas I rarely use and vice versa. And well, it's the best proof of the great dedication I put into this site, so I want to get it as high as possible.

I think the two stats that are more important to me are post rating and average works per posts. A high post rating says that you make valid points and observations that a lot of people recognize as such, not having a low post rating says that you're not rude or inflammatory and having a balanced words per post average says that you're to the point and don't write a book every time you post, and that you also don't make very short, vague or spammy posts.

Eniitan : I don't generally worry about my stats (unless it's like I only have 1,500 posts and I've been active for 5 years). It just gives me something to make me feel good about myself I suppose. It's also nice to see how you've changed by looking at how rapidly you stats have increased. For me, it's surprising me that I'm actually posting a decent amount nowadays compared to when I was staff. Where I could never bring myself to post 100 times, let alone 25 times in a day (which I've been able to do today).

Furret : At least you'd be remembered for being on minecraft all the time if anything else xp.

mohammedroxx3 : I never said all stats were perfect :p. It's just that some are more based on contribution and quality than others (which is why CP is one of my favorite stats :3). I do think that post count is the most likely to be diluted with spammy and useless posts/contributions.

yoshirulez! : I will say that I do find some of your posts amusing, if not funny at times xp.

LunarDarkness2 : I also like just being on here. But part of the reason I like being on here is because of interacting with people. And that this is the only place where I have stats that make me feel good and not like I'm a total n00b :p.

Mynamescox44 : Awwww, your three favorite stats are the same as my favorites!

zanderlex : You have made a TON of posts, and I wouldn't be surprised if you reached 25K posts in under 4 years :p. You also have a lot of CP as well... I wish I was close to getting to 100K CP, lel.

EX Palen : I also think that having a high word per post generally means that you're a pretty decent user. Heck, some of the users I look up to have a word per post average of over 100 xp.

m0ssb3rg935 : I do think that people can get rather long winded if they just care about post words, which is why I'm okay with making a short post. I just don't like doing to often xp. A high post rating can also just mean that you happen to post a lot of memes xp.

ZeroTails : My original plan was to try my best to reach 25K CP before my 3rd year but things slowed down A LOT. I'm fact, in order to reach 25K during my 3rd year, I only needed to match the number of posts I made in my 2nd year, plus a couple hundred more, so it was doable. I even started my 3rd year with a massive 1200 post month, but since then I've been plagued with a bunch of 200 to 300 posts months which I want to get out of lol. As for CP, I also had plans to reach those milestones sooner but really slacked off. I went from making 7K to 12K a month to 900 a month.

Actually the only stat I really pay any mind is words per post. I try to keep mine as high as possible without of course using a bunch of pointless filler. I think something a lot of people miss is that a ton of words doesn't mean you ramble or pad your posts, it can also mean that you always give a well articulated response in your replies. In fact I don't really have to actively try to get high word counts, as I am naturally very... "Wordy". I find that I have to explain something five or six ways before I feel confident that I've made my point.

Also I only started paying attention to this because as a new member I realized my words per post average was in the upper nineties so I wanted to break the triple digit barrier because why not. And here we are now. The unfortunate thing is that when posts are as long as mine tend to be, most people just skim over them. -__- lol

Eirinn : Sorry, did you say anything else after that first paragraph? I didn't read the 2nd.

I always put a good amount of focus on words per post and try to balance them out. If I know I made a lot of long posts, I know that I have some room to spare so I go and make a few fun short posts in crazy house, but if I have too many short posts in any period of time, then that's when I stay away from the short ones and put all my effort into the long ones, basically letting the sizes go up and down based on how balanced they are.

ZeroTails : I guess when you look at it. That way it is a good feeling. I mean its fine to look at the stats but not every time. It will go to show how obsessed you would get much less to stalk people and try and pass them. But hey everyone is very much different to how they are with their stats and stuff.

I used to be very obsessed with post rating and avg word per post, nowadays I don't really care too much about either. Your word avg could show that you've put a lot of thought in your post but it's also easy to add a lot of filler. Not to mention sometimes I find being able to make a short but concise point to make for a better post with it being easy to just start rambling if making a long post. Now of course because I'm the kind of person who tend to make very wordy and detailed responses it stays naturally high for me so either way not something I'd have to concern myself with lol.

As for post ratings while they're nice to get individually (since in most cases that means someone enjoyed reading your post) I don't really see them as a measure of how good your posts are. Though I used to, now I see them more as a measure of how funny people find your posts or how close to the popular opinion you hold sometimes simply how popular you are on the site in general. Making posts most people already agree with often doesn't make for the most interesting discussions though and doesn't even necessarily mean you made your point well. Sometimes people even given them to you just to let you know they read your post. I guess I'm in the minority when it comes to thinking that though.

What I am primarily trying to raise is actually my Viz funnily enough. Not because I have that much of an active use for it, since most interesting games David sells now I can't really run on a laptop anyway. More because I just like having it so I can look rich on a website for whenever David auctions off something cool like colored usernames. Recently I also want to try and make more threads. Other than that there's also my post count which I mostly just want to get to 5000 without trying to rush it too much, like I'm going for 500k post exp. Also because I'm in a posting race with someone and currently winning. I'm not really obsessed with either stat though, just gives me something more to strive for. I'm more obsessed with trying to contribute to vizzed and its activity each day in some non specific way, whether that be making a lot of posts, writing game articles or doing site staff work.

I used to care A LOT about stats, such as post rating, number of posts etc... Now I don't care much about them. I don't really care how high my post rating (it's nice if I have a good one though), the number of posts, or CP (CP is nice, and it would be even nicer if I enter the 10k CP club :3).

Now I just speak out my mind!

ZeroTails : I like the way you think. I also think that users should care about CP and post experience more than just the number of posts. People can just give short not-well-thought-out posts and actually call it a "post." I believe post experience shows just how good your posts really are, quality wise. And as for post rating...I know it may not be right to think like this but I can't help but think that post rating is a popularity contest, and I'm usually not very good at those on here lol So I could be more or less with post rating too. 

However, to break it down even more, I think I care the most about post experience than I do CP. CP is more for the site staff and the mods and admins in my opinion. You guys are really doing the most important things on this site and in turn receive more CP for doing them ( like guides, reviews, adding screenshots, writing articles, etc ). Here's my opinionated more important to less important list:

- Post Exp
- CP
- Post Rating
- # of posts
