Who has the highest # of posts?

[Ducaire]

Just wondering, who on this site has the highest post count? Seems like I've come across a few with over 10,000... They must really know their cars.

Who knows? I know I have seen some with over 15,000. That is a lot of information flowing!!!

I seen one guy that had 16,xxx posts but was banned. I don't know why...

Impressive!

FWIW, i dont think post count has anything to do with knowledge of cars. for example, a reasonably knowledable member has 10k+ post, but if you look at his post history, most of them are spent in the off topec sections of our site.

I once heard of a guy that had 200,000 posts, (might have been on this site), but I think something happened to his post count and he complained about it, so just to hush him up the mods gave him that radically high post count. In reality he had nowhere NEAR that many posts!!!

That is a crazy amount of posting! You would have to sit on here all day and constantly post!

I think that the number of posts has absolutely nothing to do with anything ! If you look at some individuals , with high post counts , and look at some of their posts , you'll discover many are one word posts . Anything to drive the post count up as if to suggest the high count represents knowledge or expertise . Then if you read some of those individual's actual posts , it becomes evident very quickly that often their knowledge or expertise doesn't match their inflated post count ! Just my $0.02 !

It goes the other way too. Obviously you are trying to justify your low post count or low participation level on AF. Most if not all the members who are most likely Moderators with the highest post counts on AF have paid their dues and contributed greatly to AF so I would be careful with unfounded comments that have no basis in fact. And you are welcome to review my post history and content. As a matter of fact show me a one word post or any non-contributory posts where I lack automotive expertise. Remember there are always exceptions.

bnaylor , first let me apologize to you ! I wasn't talking about you or any other specific person . Just talking about observations of some posters . no , I'm not trying to justify my low post count ! There's no one here that I need to justify anything to . Low post counts , just like high post counts , show nothing about a person's experience or expertise . I post if I have a question or think I can answer some one else's question . I don't talk ( post ) just to hear myself talk ! If you look through the various sections of this forum , I think you'll see examples of what I meant in my original post . Again , I wasn't trying to " rile " anyone with my post , but , apparently I did ! Apparently from greenblur's ( AF moderator ) post above , his thoughts on the subject , at least , somewhat parallel mine .
