    Post count doesn't matter, the content does. If all a person does is post for the sake of posting and doesn't contribute anything meaningful, it doesn't make them particularly "cool".

    Quality over quantity and all that.

    my sentiments exactly. posting for the sake of increasing ur post count is simply childish. if u have something to contribute...then by all means...post. for me..its not that big a deal.

    I believe the percentage of useful posts should be the number we should look after.
    Therefore, size does not matter so much.

    I generally don't even look at post count. There are times when it catches my eye. Generally, higher post counts are less important to me than lower post counts. I like to keep an eye on those with lower post counts, as that usually indicates newer members.

    The rank Member doesn't give it away? lol

    I just was curious, How much the post count is important for you ?

    Does a large post count show you a cool person ?

    There is a huge amount of members on here that shows thats all they are interested in,when you look at some of the topics and posts that get put on CHU well it all speaks for itself.

    Let them without sin cast the first stone.

    Hmmm.. when I say newer members... I mean less experienced to the boards. See the post above yours. tmd2fast has been a member here over 2 years, but only has 9 for a post count. So, I'll keep a closer eye on him than, say Mirraluka, who has been here a shorter length of time.
    Also, your point was extremely valid and sometimes I'm dumb.

    How times have changed lol. I agree that the count does matter as long as the information you present is worth while. However there was a time when it was of the highest importance and there was a war that spanned several years over who held the title of highest poster, for he was a King among users.

    I feel like a nostalgic old man even though I'm not even technically an adult yet.
