How does high post count = overrated? That seems like a rather large jump in logic.
I hardly even notice post count most of the time, unless it's on my mind. I notice level and aura. For example, I'll notice if a regular or semi-regular levels up or changes their aura. But, post count, not really. So really, I don't notice people more based on something like that.
I don't know if that's the case for newer users.

Yeah, I'm not going to attempt to give him any more advice unless he asks for it. If he doesn't want to listen to me - or anyone - he can wallow in his suffering alone for all I care.

Granted, if you aren't frequently active, it is pretty hard to nominate users as it's just pulling names out that you are unfamiliar with, but the actual voting is a lot easier. They narrow the candidates down, so you can go through their posts and determine the best one.
Hell, I'm a regular and it's still hard for me. :I

So? I'd rather call someone a prick rather than an internet term.
Troll gets the message across better. Prick can mean anything, but troll specifically means someone who is being a prick to get a rise out of people.
