Yah, with this shameless padding i'm one more closer to the next level ... jeez.
Seriously though: you just can't be relevant if you are a post counter. If you stick to relevant posts and thoughtful ones at that then your post count will be significantly less. Much less. You're not going anywhere at <1-2 posts/day. Not to mention that you have to live your whole life on Anandtech much less the 'net. Brutal.
Therefore I proclaim that from now on I will attempt to post 50 messages a day until I achieve ELITE PAULSON status! Wish me luck!
