Ohhh, I see. The OPC (Obsessive Post Count) disease. I don't freak out about forums anymore. It's senseless, really. There are a lot more things to do in life that just boost your post count on a forum. But, that's just my opinion. I'm sure most of you would disagree with me though.
But, not just on a forum, but anything that doesn't benefit you. As in education, or something like that. No, bragging rights doesn't count in terms that benefit you.
