I don't really care at all about my post count. I mean if we got prizes or something for every 1,000 posts, then I'd probably give a damn. Listen to this man mods! Use to be obsessed with it but not anymore. Besides I leveled up to as much as I can.

I don't see it as "important", but more fun actually. Yeah, I've celebrated a few milestone posts, jokingly, but I don't sit at home and fret about it.

Don't care one bit. Mods could drop it down to zero or raise it to 30k and I wouldn't mind one way or another.

Every once in a while I'll see it and think "wow...do I reallly have that many posts despite not even being here a year?". Other than that I couldn't give a crap.

I turned off the post count on one of my boards ages ago. and this one guy FREAKED out! I used to post on a board where they took away rep points. Nearly the entire board rioted. It was hilarious and sad at the same time.

I don't care about it that much, but it is usually an indicator of how long you've been around and how often you contribute to the board. I believe that subconsciously, most or all take people with higher post counts more seriously than those with lower ones. Most likely because those with higher post counts have most likely established themselves as a durable and (sometimes) respected poster on the forums.
So yeah, I care about it enough to not be happy if it was reset and ask for it to be put back to normal, but I wouldn't leave the forums or anything like that. If I cared that much I'd post way more than my usual 5-10 times a week.

It was hilarious and sad at the same time. yeah the one I have now I put on the smite or exault feature. people started coming on just to smite people and leave no posts. then everyone started complaining. I found it easier to just take the option off.

I am more concerned with the date where a member joined than their post count. Like it's always funny when someone who joined the forum that same month yells at us all for running a joke in the ground, or how we are "always" starting threads about the same thing. It's interesting because you know that they are someone who was probably banned and is back under an alternate account or something. Oh sure it's possible that they have been lurking for 2 and a half years, but I doubt it.

I lurked on here for YEARS before I made my first post. then I forgot my password when I got a new computer and started this account

I don't give two damns about it. If I could I'd look my post count in the eyes and kick it in the nads then while its laying in the ground shoot it in the back of the head then drag it into a dumpster and take a giant s*** on it while singing Its Raining Men.
What I'm trying to say is no I don't care about it.
