It would be nice if people were ranked by word counts, and not post counts.

Browsing through the posts of Users whose post counts numbered well into the thousands, without actually saying or contributing anything, was to me both dull and time consuming. I don't even bother anymore.

it would certainly be much different. all over the place, perhaps.

41 for me. not sure how i would feel about total strangers browsing my posts, finding them boring or otherwise.

How can one find his post rank? I don't think the "Browse Users" feature is still active.

1. Click on "My Account" at the top of the page.
2. Click on "Usergroups" (one of the options on the left).
3. Click on "Registered users".
4. Select "Post count" and "Descending" from the drop-down menus under the list, and click submit. Then find your name on the list.

my post rank here is obviously low (around #6000) and changing rapidly, but then i got curious to check how high it would have been on another large site where i've been active for years (between #10 and #20). but then again... that's only if i consider all my posts together (i asked for my original account to be removed a few years ago), and also ignore the fact that accounts that get deleted are usually among the most active ones, and it's not a rare thing

in conclusion, i have no idea what my post rank would have been if those numbers were more realistic :lol:. maybe #30? maybe #300? i don't know

It'd be interesting to see how many of the posts of the people really high up are something other than really short posts in things such as 'count by x's' or such. People who do this really annoy me, posting a lot of short posts just to boost their post count. I believe it's called postwhoring.

And how do you know that the people do it just to boost their post count?

I very much doubt they are posting on them because they particularly enjoy only them threads. Most just do it for easy posts.

Well, you have no proof.
