Does your post count matter to you?

Stop pretending you are old school

Is this a cue for all the Oct 2002 posters to start comparing User ID numbers?

if the post count field got removed from the user profile and post info, then I'd not be bothered, although the user groups are normally enough to let you know how long someone has been around.

i want to keep under 5k, i prefer the title "wise guy" tbh =(

I read the forums pretty much every day but rarely contribute to them.

This comment sums me up too.

More of a Lurker than a Poster

 

[ICEx21]

Indeed, I'd think that or Don Status was pretty much what most would be proud of, rather then post count.

What did you get your MoH for? Can't remember that far back.

Dude look how long it took me to get to 170 posts, so to hit 250 is gonna take me like another 2 years!
How about negotiating with Mr Admin to let me get in the members market for 185 posts?

 

[Mattus]

Matters in the MM - generally more likely to trust somebody with a high post count (and a good trust...) Otherwise, not really.

 

["andy"]

nope

infact i dont even know what my real count is. not even a clue

 

[yhack]

Nope, I donated mine a while back and I read more than I post

 

[ThatJoe]

Nope I tend to read more than I post.

I probably post once every 20 threads that i read.

"Join date" is where its at. I rarely even look at peoples post counts.

 

[yaboy]

Hells yeah..

I LUFFS MY POST COUNT! Shows im not a jaffa

 

[Replenish]

Nope not at all to me, especially since Ive been on these forums for 4 years and I dont even have 200 posts!

Best forum I use to go on had no post count at all.

 

[Van Hellseek]

From an admin perspective I like them. You have to give a bit of credit to people who have managed to rack up a large post count without getting banned. It may not sound hard, but so many try and fail...

Although here that obviously doesn't mean squat - it's impossible for most end-users to keep track of who has 'bought' their post count and who has 'earned' it.

*Pats post count*

Was a lurker for like 2 years before I joined though

 

[Psypher5]

pfft,

See far to many people with 2k+ thinking they can talk down to people with 100-500 posts.

Too me it means nothing, I ask questions, help where I can, and gain info. Thats all the forum is for me.

Actually I'm surprised some of the established members like yourself don't date back that far, now you come to mention it.

I have been a member since 2004 and only have 50 posts.
I enjoy reading the views of the forum members and occasionally I reply, if someone more knowledgeable does not beat me to it.
I do not reply to threads I know nothing about by Googling for answers, as if they come back to you for more in depth knowledge on the subject you are up the creek without a paddle.
