What does the number of total posts have to do with the level of concern ?
Would one be less concerned with a post count of 1,750 ?
You bring up a very interesting point...
Post count...This is one
"feature" I wish did
NOT exist...It is Not a good incentive for 'contributing' to any forum...
The only thing it does
that I have seen, is bring out the lowest "bully" mentality in those folks so shallow they think it is a status symbol AND some indicator of Their importance....
It would serve everyone better if it were TURNED OFF ...
Then the only merit given for ANY particular post would be that post's content... With No additional implication perceived by the "post count group"...
In a perfect forum the post count would be coupled to a random number generator and It would assign any number from 1 to 10,000... it would to me be Just as important and meaning full as the system that keeps track of the Number of times anyone enters any Public place...
For those that live for their 'post count' ... eventually they could get a high score ... and that might make them feel better about themselves ... for a few seconds. :smile:KennyV
