[SOLVED] a question about "post to host" - 903 - 04-26-2011
I just join it yesterday, I wonder if I just reply 10 threads,will it OK?
RE: a question about "post to host" - RichardGv - 04-26-2011
What? You joined yesterday? "Joined: Jun 2010" is on the right side of your username... Unless you mean the hosting service, for which the verb "join" seems quite inappropriate.
Replies and threads count in the same way (as "a post"), and 10 replies would work. But you probably need to ensure that your posts have adequate quality. The total length of some 40 of your posts (that I can see) looks shorter than the length of my longest thread here. Honestly if I'm in charge of the forum, 80% of all your replied would have already been removed. :D
Try read and follow the post quality tutorial, you may: http://www.niftyhost.us/support/thread-1100.html
Don't be (at least a part of) our national shame, please. I just have no idea why most Chinese users I've seen on various forums always post with terribly inferior quality.

Thanks very much.
I think the most likely reason for your last part,is their poor English.
They don't know what‘s your meaning exactly,so just reply very shot post with terribly inferior quality.
For example with me, I have to open the Google Translate to help myself.
So, you can see the p2h plan it's hard for many none English people.
I think maybe there is other way for these people,like donation?
RE: a question about "post to host" - RichardGv - 04-28-2011
- Well, I guess the owner (HK? Or Zack?) would be willing to accept donations. (Most people on the earth does, moreover. :D )
Zack once expressed his will of founding a paid hosting service, but it's still in "NotImplemented" state, as far as I know.
- There would be much less Chinese users that are willing donate than the ones that loves posting posts, I'm afraid. :)
- I always hold the belief that no external deficiency has more impact than the a person's attitude. If one wants to compose high-quality posts, he could find a way to do it (say thank to the infinite power in our brains, which are way beyond any human imagination), even though it may lead to a dramatic decrease of the amount of posts, and could take quite a long period of time. (Most of my posts take more than 20 minutes to compose and refine, while some take hours or days.); and if one just comes for the hosting service all along, the result is destined, too, and that's probably the key problem. Language issue is important, but not really decisive.
- After all, Post2Host is more or less a kind of trade. You devote your time and knowledge, and the service/forum returns a hosting package, and frequently some extra prizes, e.g. more friends, more knowledge, and opportunities to become the richest person in the world. (There are chances, indeed, that you can meet Paul Allen II on NiftyHost forums. :D ) The underlying principle is somehow similar to the one of a gambling game. (Unfortunately devoting the same elements -- time and knowledge -- into a gambling game usually causes one to lose more. :D ) If one cannot afford the cost (e.g. if he totally lacks the ability to speak English, not perfectly, but at least mostly correctly) or is unwilling to, the trade simply isn't suitable for him, and he shall search for the "free hosting" services with usually unsatisfactory quality, a Post2Host service in his primary language, or just a paid hosting service.
- It's a disaster to use Google translator to translate anything from/to Chinese. :) I guess an Oxford or Merriam-Webster dictionary at hand would be much more helpful.
- I hope you have already noticed that I am a Chinese person, by the way.
