Does the amount of posts someone has affect the way you read their posts? For example do you take the same time to read someones post who has 20 posts as you would someone with a 1000 or more.

yes, it affects the way i read posts in general. certainly there are exceptions. someone with a low count who says something particularly interesting or proves him/herself to be intelligent will get a bit more consideration. but for the most part, low-count posters who don't seem to offer anything that's particularly of interest to me are less likely to catch my attention than an established poster with nothing interesting to say.

low-count posters who can't spell or construct a sentence get absolutely no consideration and i immediately move on.

Ratings: anything lower then 4, I automatically think they're an idiot. (unless I've seen otherwise)

Posts: Yes, it matters... but what matters more is how well its written. There are some high count posters who, in my book, are complete retards and I always skip there posts. There are others, with less then 300 posts, who I'll actually read their post history because they're so interesting.

considering your own improper punctuation, and utter lack of ANY such 'sentence structure' yourself - I find it rather comical that you're acting all high-n-mighty towards others for the same exact thing you're doing right now



the occasional period alone makes not for a sentence  :craven:

i was waiting for a response exactly like this.  why don't you be a little more specific in your criticisms?  tell me, other than the lack of capitalization and the one sentence i initiated with the conjunction "but" (which is actually considered acceptable in modern english), where exactly have i trodden on the grammatical boundaries of sentence structure and punctuation? 

be specific now, you don't want to look like an ass.  and please bear in mind ("wtf!?  omg!  he did NOT just start another sentence with a conjunction!") that these posts are technically direct responses within a conversation, and not writings within a formal or expository essay - meaning the rules that apply are a bit different.

by the way, the guy above me was right.  my original post was referring to those posters who are incapable of conveying their thoughts legibly.  i don't care if your writing style is informal or if you misspell a word every now and then.  it's when the english language is being butchered so badly that i literally have to reread a post multiple times to decipher the meaning within that i lose patience.

Yes, I'm a moderator and to me it matters. I'm more forgiving of newbies breaking a rule than the same from someone with thousands of posts, especially if they posted extensively in the forum already. However having a far higher post count thats well distributed across several forums and is accompanied by good ratings (general and trade) does signify that the person has invested in the community and that his efforts are appreciated, so in case of imminent permaban this may be cause for a bit of extra lenience.

Post count to me does matter, but I take all posters seriously, and either high or low post count has it's good and bad sides.

Yes and no.

To me, it is mostly about getting to know the character of the members, by paying attention to the quality of their posts. Some people stick out as often posting ignorant bullshit. Some people stick out as often posting something worthwhile. Some people don't stick out.

On the other hand, I do tend to look at post count, but mainly in conjunction with how long they've been a member.

If I see that someone has 1,000 posts and has been here for a few years, I consider that they probably have a history of making relevant posts when they had something to contribute.

When I see that someone has 2,000 posts and they've been a member for 3 months, I assume that they probably type so much bullshit their keyboard must be stained brown.
