Well I clocked up about a total of 3000 posts under my first two accounts. Then I racked up about 1500 before OT posts were discounted, and I've added about 500 on-topic posts since.
I don't think I'd be at Deity yet, but I'd be close. Doesn't bug me in the slightest, however. I've long supported ditching them altogether.

I don't think that many more would be. There are only a few people that keep posting alot on here anyway.
I know for a fact that i wouldn't be. I'm only a Cheiftain, and I don't post enough to ever make it anywhere near Diety - I've only just started posting in this forum recently but have been hanging around for a while now. Might head back into the Civ3 ones and the Civ4 planning one. Got a couple of ideas. Pity the Moo3 forum is so dead, I don't actually mind that game.

At least a hundred. There are many many posters here who post almost exclusively in the OT yet manage to have very high post counts. If there more significant (by number) contribution to the site were included also, then there would be a massive number of people who would be deity right now.
But then, punishments for spamming in the OT would be much more harsh.

I wouldn't be a deity, that's for sure.
But then, who wants to be a deity? Too much work, too little fun. You have to listen to people complaining all the time, and asking for help all the time, and offering you strange things and making promises all day. Sure, you can sometimes have fun by exploding volcanoes and flooding some areas, not to mention hurricanes and other assorted things. But it is a boring way of life.

I think I'd be on 11,000 posts now if OT posts still counted.

As I said, there's only one Mao. Provost Harrison tried to pull a Mao a couple of times when posting in the OT still counted, but he suffered large PCRs for both tries.

Don't your OT posts count now because of your exalted Mod status, UR?

Exalted?
Anyway, no. I made contributions to a few other forums as well.

UR was deity before being mod. I remember, being the first one to congratulate him and all.
