The number of posts show how involved you are in a forum. You may have earned it from helping others or just adding comments to other threads. It's all in good fun. Next thing you know, BAM, you realize just how much you have contributed here regardless of the type of posts you made. If we can speak 3,000 words per minute on average, anyone here can have huge post counts if they are committed. Posting on here is like being involved in a general conversation at times. Can be fun and beneficial, but once in awhile, can get out of hand.
