Post count does not matter?

o i know i posted last but,

-Post count does matter, in the beginning someone had to trade a leecher to get this site started.but to get what is called "LEGIT" vouches you have to trade someone who has many posts to be considered legit.

To sum it up- to be "LEGIT" you have to trade "LEGIT" and someone has to be "LEGIT"

 

posts per day is what you should be looking at, that and vouches.

i say 3 posts - 7 posts a day is normal. If they have more I think they're a scammer.

 

I agree with Gurtation.

 

I agree here, I just came here looking to sell so yes, my post count is low.

I can understand skepticism towards low post counts, though. I would be too.

 

I have an extremely low post count for being here 5 years, in part because i'm on and off and because im adamant about not posting unless it's constructive(few exceptions).

 

Post count and join date along with vouches do earn a person rep in my opinion, expecially if it's a trade between 2 people.

 

I think it does, it shows how much a person worked on there account, besides just check the join date, if its like a week before (SCAMMER). What I usually look at is the vouches, that's the most important to me though.

 

yeah i dont beleive post counts matter, im around 500 or usmthing last time i checked and iv been around about a year but i wouldnt call myself trusted. not saying im untrustworthy and i spam for posts, most of my posts are from "free skilling threads" where i reap the benefits of people trying to become a trsuted/respected member

 

Denied, Post Count Means Nothing. I Could Sit Here Posting Random Crap, Does NOT Mean I Am Legit/Trusted.

 

I wish it were true but i feel that post count will always matter in this society.

 

for the most part no, (getting post up)

 

post count does not matter anyone can spam threads 2 get them up.
Vouches are what show if you are legit or not

 

I kinda feel that both ways;

More Posts
- If you have more posts, you may not want your account banned and you may put more effort into your trading.
- More posts shows that you are more known with a community

Less Posts
- Could be some ban evader
- Could actually be somebody trying for a legit rank on a site

So in my beliefs it could go either way.

 

I don't see where you're coming from with your second point under 'Less Posts'

 

I believe i worded it wrong. i mean it could actually be somebody who is actually trying to become trusted on the site and only has a few posts. i mean we all gotta start somewhere?

 

Quick Comment: Love how the person who made this thread is banned with just under 500 posts.

 

I believe the biggest factor is join date.​

 

Disagree
Take me, for example, I joined in April of 2007 and didn't take another look at these forums until March of 2010. While I personally would never scam, this join date should not play a factor in my trustworthiness.

 

Fair enough. However, I'd trust you more than someone who Joined in April of 10' with 900-1100 posts.​

 

Vouches, previous trades and staff ranks should be the only factors people take into account.
