Your post made me realize that I've been participating on these forums for over two years now and have given my (usually wrong) opinion over 1500 times.
I average 2 posts a day. Does that seem excessive?
I only reply to threads that I find interesting or if someone has purchased a coin that I like, I'll tell them. I don't really care about post counts much.
<< <i>...post count numbers were not displayed? >>
Wouldn't matter to me, but I'm sure there are some who would not like it.
Good, provocative, question Wayne!
I think that some with high post counts, like Russ/Lucy/and some others would still do everything the same. Most of their posts have substance (like it or not in some cases).
For some others....I won't mention any names.....I think there would be a lot less of their posts.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

It's really just like in real life. Some people will tell you whats on their minds and others will talk BS!

I figure everyone here knows more about coins then I do, so the count doesn't matter much to me. I value everyones opinion.
"And, some post little and contribute little"
that would be me....

Edited to say I just uped my count by one and didn't really say anything

It's the cheat threads that would suffer the most!!! The "ttt" thread, the "official" and
"unofficial cheat" threads, perhaps even the "last word thread" would be decimated.
The open forum would be populated by lost souls with no where to go and nothing to
say. This forum would be greatly changed without that little number that goes up when-
ever we hit "reply to thread".
Oh, the humanity.

you mean to tell me that it's currently Not?
post count, who cares. probably 75 percent of mine are not even on this forum. If they were wiped out I'm sure there'd be at least 1 person crying.
Ahem, +2

Well sure. There are lots of lost souls with no where to go but most of us have much to say about it.
I can't wait to ttt this thread.

...post count numbers were not displayed?
Some of us would have more repect for some people who apparently have fairly lame lives, some posting here as much as 30 times a day...for months, and months and months!
Could you imagine the fit that some would throw if counters were dispensed with?
"That's my whole life...and I've almost caught so and so!"
Some people....
we'd still have titles like we have now, only the count wouldn't be displayed under the icon like it is. PCGS would know and maybe a few members who tally thier totals----how sick would that be.
about the only time i look at a total is when someone new or unfamiliar shows up.
al h.
snake, - those that post many times a day and enjoy these forums have their reasons or need, and may not be as busy as you or I - nor may they have much more either - regardless, that was a low statement with no grins or anything suggesting it was made in poor faith. JMHO, as I like everything else about your mercgandise

Personally, I think the post count should be eliminated all together. It's kind of silly.
There are OTHER forums??? hmmmmmm...
<< <i>post counts don't matter to me....i post because i have something to say or ask
I agree. As far as post counts, they don't count!
Let's focus on matters numismatic!
<< <i>Good and creative question.
