If Postcount was removed, would you post as much as you do?

WWYBYWB and n00b comments seem to indicate people value it. Not to mention people that disappear at milestone postcounts or pointless threads cheering on 50k posts or whatnot.

Well, the real question is: Would eliminating the post count eliminate a lot of the postcount++ threads?

Hmm, is a nef a nef because of desire to increase postcount or because they just like having their name show up all the time?

maybe between 0 and 200, but after that the title upgrades are few and far between... hard to care after that

I'm pretty passive on this forum, I read mostly, but If I have something to say, I say it. I only value post count for finding people to idealize. :D

Yea, I would just program some thingy in php to pass my posts through that would keep track of my post count for me and I'd have a link in my sig :)

I actually had somebody PM me the other day that I was a few away from 30k. I honestly haven't looked at my post counts in a couple years.

Post count is irrelevant.

I'm actually rather embarrassed by mine being so high. I've got to stop getting into topical and political debates.
