If you're posting just to inflate your post count, trust me, it gets boring very quickly. For me it's more about the community (I was the first to mention the 100k Sapphire bonus on DDF), and (aside from the n00b annoyances) there's always more to share.

If you beat Asher0 in posts, it only counts if they are posts of quality!

I actually am not....I do post when i cant keep my mouth shut and have s/t to say, but the goal is not to inflate it. However, I do notice when it changes my status.

It never ceases to amaze me how enthralled n00bies are with the post count.
Up until what point is one considered n00bie?

IMHO n00bism is more about netiquette (lack thereof actually) rather than post count.

Sorry to disappoint you but "he" wasn't the first n00b around here.
