I'm not sure what it means, I haven't really seen Sam around too much the past while. Busy with his forum as well I guess.

Does this mean that I'm denied for the feather ?
He is most likely just busy. If he doesn't respond by the time you reach 100 posts, I'd PM him again and let him know what happened, and ask if you are accepted or denied.
Seems that is a frequent problem with staff here, they move on very quickly, and we are left with Omni. Who is a great admin for the most part, but his time is very divided. Just means us members need to keep on the reports and what-not to help Omni, and Sam when ever he does get on.
I've received a PM. Seems that I'm denied; My posts are not HQ.
I Thought that I was posting pretty HQ.
Nvm.

Personally I thought you were doing well too... Quite honestly, I noticed that you've not been eager to spam for the feather, and your posts are insightful and show initiative. There's no way that you should have been denied from my perspective. LQP has nothing to do with the length of the content you post, which is where
most people are mistaken. It's the value in the post that makes it HQ.
You can post a bunch of junk in a 1000 word post, or you can post good content in a post only 100 chars long, but at the end of the day, that 100 char post is still more useful to the OP in most cases if it answers his/her question and/or helps him/her out in any way.
THAT is the way these posts need to be judged in my opinion.

Yeah, thought that to. I Post the same as I post on HF, and I got my Ub3r there.. But anyway, I came here not for the feather in the first way, but just to be on a fun forum.
But now they say my posts aren't of good quality, it's just weird.
I see this as your user title "Just no - Staff." perhaps that was also used as the basis for why you got denied? Having something in your custom user title previously? If so, then that's not really right to deny you in my opinion.

As much as I agree that you probably should have been accepted, referring to how you are on HF is irrelevant.
The majority of HF members are low quality, whether they're Ub3r or not.

I believe that was just his reference to show that he hasn't changed his style of posting in any way that would indicate that he's trying to spam at all for the feather. There's no motive for him to get anything on HF for posting any better, so if his posts are the same here as they are on HF, then maybe that's just his evidence to say that he's not been trying for anything extra or anything less on SF.

Oww, that's possible. My user title was 'fudged up', I think. That's a pretty lame reason to be denied.
And yeah, A Lot of low quality users on HF. (But enough of HF now)
