Does post count matter

[Jesse Carlton]

I personally don't care about it at all, I look at what people say and judge about them from that.

[Pajter]

Yes, it defines the size of your e-penis :p

[SerialStorm]

It doesn't effect anything but I think it is nice to set a goal (1000 in 1 year) and try to meet it.

[John Veteran]

No. The younger members just have a complex with their e-penis.

i come on neowin about 12 times a day and about twice will i login normally i just skim posts and see whats happening

[adam.sproul]

Stupid question, stupid answer, NO it doesn't. The mere fact you are asking this implies that you do. No offence.

[jokeripa]

i think yes, a look at someone with about 100 posts and think their below me, then i look at 5000 posts and repect them

I know this sounds pathetic, but its just the way i think, i know more/less posts doesnt make any1 better or worse than me

[vincent]

No. But some of the folks here just insist that i spam and i'm judged here by the number of posts by some members.

[spa2k]

absolutely not, its the quality of the replies that matters, not how many one can rack up in a defined period.

[BoundToEarth]

I don't believe so. :)

*Edit* I stand with the guys above me and below me.

[gogosama]

another point its not how many posts its the quality of your topics and posts i would rather sumone have 1 post that contriubtes to neowin that sumone have 10 of either lol or :ninja:

actually in the 'should people be allowed to delete their own posts" poll I said postcount doesn't matter and people said I was in a small minority thinking that, I just wanna know if that's true.

Agreed, that happens with me as well. I show more respect to people with 1000s of posts, people with under 100 dont get as must respect.

I've seen you get a grilling that you spam, it must be a little annoying when you do genuinely help people in the hardware section alot.

I personally would say that I have a low percentage of spam posts, and always try to help where I can. So in my case, my post count does matter, because I've tried to contribute to the community, and not just tard it up.

Some people all they do is "Lol" or "congrats" all day. They may as well not even bother. It's not like anyone actually knows them.

[adam.sproul]

Sorry, I agree post count doesn't matter, why should it?

It's like making a point system up outlining everytime you have given an opinion out and then comparing it with other people.

However it can make a difference to newer members who are looking for an authority figure.

[smart001]

I voted that No it does not matter but i would be willing to give some (like insanekiwi) more credability than someone with one or two posts

+1

People SAY that postcount doesn't matter but the stink would be incredible if we ever talked about hiding it or removing their stars. We had a rush of new subscribers after we found a way to give them a subscriber badge while keeping their stars. People love their stars.

[adamcsays]

It doesn't necessarily matter, but someone with very few posts couldn't have contributed that much to the community. Obviously, someone with thousands of posts hasn't necessarily contributed much either though.
