You post responses to people, then go back and forth while discussing nothing new or anything relating to the topic at hand.

You have a good point there, it really means something coming from a 30,000 plus poster.

They are of no worth, the little stat tells you nothing. Each time you reach a thousand or so posts, it is meant to be some big deal.

If post counts were not visible, then posters will be appreciated purley on merit.

you have a point if they did not show there would be less post count spam and stuff.

I disagree. I think it shows dedication in some way shape or form to the bbs, whether it's making great articulate and well thought out posts or making short stupid remarks thousands of times. Either way it shows loyalty and dedication. The truth is is that we need someone to look up to and show us what a true ng fan is.

The act of locking them in your car is probably a bigger issue.

I think dedication is shown from post history and how often one is displayed on the list of users on line.

Of course, I could be completley wrong, this is all opinion.

I don't think they should not be displayed, only if we got to pick our own avatars, we would mix each other up by name...

And besides i dont see the harm, i dont think anyone can be inferiour because of a low post count, i've seen dumbasses with a few thousand posts.

And if someone is a member for years, he does deserve a little attention, positive, or negative if he is a douchebag.

Why do long term users deserve more attention than new users?

Lol the first 2 posts are irrelevant to the topic, and only talk about how many posts he has ^^.

Yeah in a way post counts' segregate members of NG. The higher posters usually meet requirements others can't meet (for example, duck sig). It does show the attatchment to the site, however, and can help distinguish more mature members from kids (sometimes, but its better to read the profiles) by the # of posts.
