Poll: Post Count: Do you take notice?

[SlyReaper]

I voted pancakes.

 

[HAz]

It gives me respect mon..

 

[No1newts]

I will certainly notice it but it rarely/if ever effects my opinion of what someone has posted

I enjoy getting a new avatar.

Post counts don't bother me. Just shows I have more of a life.

I voted pancakes.

You should have total spent at OcUK...I'd be very happy with that.

Postcount generally helps identify who is talking nonsense and who has some knowledge to share.

Not so much port count but length of time.

Once it's passed 500 posts or so (in more than 6 months) I don't really look. It's just a way to see if someones new or not, or if someone is likely just a spammer.

Couldnt care less. Ive donated thousands and would happilly give away what I have now, its meaningless.

I'm option 4 according to the poll, I do sometimes look at post counts but it doesn't affect the way I perceive people or at least it doesn't change how I would react to them. I do sometimes look to see if there is any correllation between the number of posts that someone has and the things they post but so far I've not found anything to suggest there is which makes me think it's an utterly worthless point to base a view on.

I don't think removing the post count serves any useful purpose though.

I think people generally disregard posts by people with only single/double-figures, subconsciously or not.

Agree with this.

I'd like Post Counts to be kept though.

 

[Vonhelmet]

I look at them, but mainly because I'm generally quite impressed if someone makes it to 10k or 15k without having been permabanned! I must be due any day...

 

[Dark_Angel]

Somewhat off topic - how did this whole pancake thing in votes start?

 

[Mark A]

Keep them IMO. The people who don't like them don't have to look at them . I just find it interesting seeing how many times I've posted over the years. Its not like i spam or anything, only got 4.1 posts a day.

 

[FatBoyObese]

Om nom nom nom.....pancakes......





@ Sidewinder.....145313 posts....blimey

 

[meghatronic]

I look only if someone posts an insightful, or utterly retarded, comment.

 

[Psypher5]

if some berk with a few hundred posts comes in shouting the odds, it makes me raise an eyebrow and think "go away"

 

[craptakular]

I am not posting in the poll.

The only interest I have in post count is when I'm using MM.

I tend to only buy expensive things from people with over a 2-3k of posts. In my mind it's a sort of insurance policy that they are unlikely to be scammers or con artists.

EDIT: one of OCUK competitors has an MM but as far as I can tell they have no access requirements and anyone can post in it :/
