This is by no means true.
There are plenty of people, myself included, who talk a lot but may not necessarily have all the answers.
I'm not calling anybody unreliable, but postcount is in no way related to knowledge of the subject at hand.

and I don't think I have more experience than alot of sub 500 post people. Indeed I learn stuff here every day pretty much like I did the day I joined. I guess I just post more, mostly regurgitating stuff or giving links.
I did learn something here though, I had no idea my post count was 7000+, last time I looked was when we discussed the apparant 9999 limit on avatars as displayed
here and how quickly some of us might reach that.
as for the display next to each post stopping at 500, I always assumed it was an arbitrary amount at which point it really didn't matter any more (assuming it mattered at sub 500). I'm sure there is no technical reason for it to just say >500

That is the reason.

@ Vlamm
that's why I wrote a 'rough' idea of their reliability, I realise it ain't gospel
@ masseur
We're all here to learn & share our knowledge I guess.
I just noticed ur post count from a PM yesterday. My only comment is
!
@ Tranquil
Thanks for clearing that up.
>500 here I come
just kiddin, I try not to post for the sake of it!

yes, that is what we are here for, and to have a little fun too I hope!
btw, 7000 posts is one thing but I just noticed that equates to 1.06% of total posts. so 1 in 106 posts is mine.
perhaps I should learn to shut up a bit!
(no need for anyone to agree with that btw
)

thanks, but nah, I was just joking. I will carry on as I have done
its nice having people like MixiN and tranquil around who can remember all these little changes and bits of Esato history that have occurred on Esato long before many of us were members, or even knew about Esato.
This isn't the first time a topic like this has come up where one or other of them has remembered the reasons
