Basic Technical Suggestion for Improving This Site

Posted By: Joann

I agree with John. Number of posts showing can be intimidating to someone with no or few posts. It can also give unwarranted weight to different opinions based only on how often the person holding an opinion has posted.

Yeah yeah yeah I know - number of posts isn't related to quality of the poster. But people do fall into the mental habit of looking at that whether it makes sense or not. I also don't like when named levels are assigned to the number of posts - also contributes to the "fewer posts = less experience or expertise" mentality.
