I'm as guilty as anyone else doing +1 etc...  But what does a higher post count prove to us?  Does it say we are real active here, does it say we are more trusted, more respected?
We celebrate when we hit new milestones  10k, 15k, 20k etc...  I'm just rambling here so really, is your post count that big of a deal to you?


In before all the +1, and post count bumps.

If we had a counter for every time I started to reply but decided not to I'd have double the amount of posts.

If that guy says 'jump' the only thing we should be asking is 'how high?'

Post count gives you the ability to look into the shallow mind of our fellow mouth breathers.

Does it matter to me? No. Does how long you have been here matters? No. All of us are prone to moments of idiocy, and in some rare instances, lucidity.

If someone has been here a few years and has 10K post count there is a good chance they live with their parents.

I don't even look at my post count number or other peoples post count. It doesn't matter to me.

Doesn't matter to me, and is certainly not an indicator of quality.

Contrary to Lenin,  or whomever said "Quantity has a quality of it's own", that creedo only applies to stuff like nukes, planes, bombs, and tanks.

Not so much post count or history as opposed to quality and current posts mean FAR more to me than how long you have been here or how long your Arfdick is.

Same thing with real life. You can sense disingenuousness.

My post count isn't remotely connected to the hours I spend here..

This is where I come first to get my news

It's a metric like join date that is objective.

Somewhat like school attendance, generally good but not of absolute value.

It never occurs to me to pay attention to someone's post count, until someone points it out.

Typically it's a new sign up, trolling, and they receive the whole "join date....post count" treatment.

According to anti-gunners we all have small penises, so this is our substitute for a dick measuring contest.

It's a mixed bag. Some high post count members are extremely knowledgeable. While others are mouth breathing morons. Sadly, the mouth breathers are held in high regard here.

I'm another one that deletes quite a few posts, especially in tech threads where I'm just going to give the same answer as the last 10 guys. 

ETA: Post count doesn't really matter. There are a few posters here and in the tech forums I frequent that know what they're talking about, and quite a few that are frequently wrong. Those ones stick out to me and I know whether or not to listen to their advice.
