Does post count matter

[hulibecker]

No it doesnt matter.

What matters is the opinions and comments people give.

I'll respect an opinion or comment sum1 gives no matter what their post count.

Its when you get the idiots who flame, and have nothing constructive to say that i have no respect for.

I value post history over number of posts. On any forum that I frequent, when I see someone misbehaving I tend to look at their post history. Usually you'll find that they have a tendency towards bad forum etiquette.

I don't think it matters. A person could always have like 2k posts but post nothing but 'lol, good one, hm.. interesting' Or people who make threads for no reason whatsoever. People might have 500 posts. But have very good opinions with long answers. These are the people that I like.

id say in some ways yes it matters...if you see someone with 2 posts making an outlandish claim...it would be hard to believe...but someone with 20000 posts makes one...it may be worth looking into...because if they havent been banned after that many posts, they must at least show a little quality :)

[semifamous]

quality > quantity

so you're saying if you didn't know what number you've posted, you wouldn't have posted so many times by now?

that makes no sense

[kombolcha]

[Colin-uk Veteran]

post count = e-penis

big e-penis = good :yes:

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

Signup time is most important to see how long you've been down.

[SapUMBC]

No. Some people like to think it does, though. Mostly 12 year olds.

i dont care about postcount. i care about my subbadge and helping fellow neowinians with their problems. and this stupid poll just causes alot of geekfights and unnecessary discussions.

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.

exactly my thoughts...

kiwi, you'll gunna have ta 'bust a cap in his ass'.

I like to comment on anything that has nothing to do with linux or a mac.

I like to add input.

I see some users only comment in 1 forum, like games, or jokes, or even neotrade.

If I only posted in 1 forum I might only have 30 posts and 3 threads by now.

Kiwi is all of the above also, though I don't know his/her opinions on linux or mac forums.

I'm pretty sure he was joking, relax

[ripped]

personally, i think post count is sad...if you look at it as a form of vindication for what you say. many times, i add my thoughts to a thread, and have someone rank out, "shaddup ripped, u only have xxx posts...you know nothing!"

this happens more than you think, on every board i've ever been on.

knowledge is not in any way shaped by how often you speak of it.

if that were the case, then there would be a lot more intelligent people on this earth.

ripped :rofl:
