Of course post count is important! Why the hell should I stoop down to the level of a n00b! Rank is everything, anyone below my rank is simply a waste of valuable webspace.

Of course post count is not important!
When it comes to post counts, I believe in quality not quantity, I'd rather read 10 fantastic posts rather than 100 boring, repetitive spam posts. To judge someone based on the number of replies they've made on a website is stupidity at its finest.
And even if someone's got like 10,000 posts, hell if even 2/3 of those posts are funny/insightful and witty as hell than by golly gosh they ain't spammers in my eyes.
I don't call anyone a real spammer here on IW, and when I do I use the term affectionately, as a joke.
