Are You a True GMATClubber? Yes or No? [#permalink] New post   22 Mar 2009, 18:06
Are you a true Gclubber?


1) You spend majority of your time procrastinating in GMATClub chatroom during the workday, every week. (20 points)

2) You posted at least 100 posts in the GMAT forum, discussing, replying, and solving verbal/quant questions. (10 points)

3) Your status in the forum is at least "Major Shareholder" (10 points)

4) You have at least 10 GMATclub members in your Facebook or Google Chat friends list (5 points)

5) You can name at least 10 GMATClub member's employer, undergrad institution, city of residence, ethnicity, and their bschool application list from the top of your head. (5 points)

6) My screen name font color is green, blue or red. (10 points)

7) You have been temporarily banned in the forum, or banned in the chat room or kicked out in the chatroom at least once. (15 points)

8) You have been a registered member of this forum since or before 2006. (5 points)

9) You have more than 50 kudos in total (10 points)

10) You know the old screen name that rhyme used before he requested to change it to his current screen name (10 points)

11) When you go to work every morning, your routine is: Turn on your PC, check work email, and then visit GMATClub.com to see what other posted while you were logged off. (10 points)

12) You visit this site so many times a day that you can guarantee you are responsible for 5% of total site traffic every month. (10 points)

13) When you are in a company meeting and somebody has a good idea you actually say "PLUS ONE!" (5 points)

14) You had a fight with your significant other or family member about spending more time on GMATClub.com than with them. (5 points)

15) You have seen it say 1 user in chat, including 0 guest(s) and 1 registered [nink] for hours at a time (5 points)

OR

You had a early morning (2 AM to 5 AM) flirtation with just gcbot and bot in the chatroom without anyone else present.... (also 5 points)


If you add up all the points and score 65 points or higher, you are a true GClubber... :lol:

Lets make this an even 20......

13) When you are in a company meeting and somebody has a good idea you actually say "PLUS ONE!"

14) When you are having dinner with friends/family you mention "GC" and they have no clue what you are talking about

15) When you are IMing/Facebook chatting with a GMATClubber you still call them by their GC username (even though their true identity has been revealed)

16) At church-synagogue-temple-mosque you spend part of the time worshipping msday

17) Whenever you hear/read those Chuck Norris or Jack Bauer facts you have the urge to replace their names with Praetorian's

18) In the past 6 months your work has spent more money on you using GC than on your actual work

19) You think Business Week:Gmat Club as Canada:USA

20) You have seen it say 1 user in chat, including 0 guest(s) and 1 registered [nink] for hours at a time

So I thought I could claim I wasn't a "true" member because I'm doing more productive things with my time, but I just spent an hour watching Rock of Love bus. Maybe it's not a good thing after all.

Same here. At least you didn't watch the show twice, like some others. So you can claim somewhat productive ;).

While I don't post that much, I spend a lot of time here and I do appreciate the information/knowledge/entertainment from the "true GClubbers".

I am afraid my boss will catch me on here one day. I quickly cover the gmatclub browser with my email inbox at least 5 times a day.
