2,3 year members with about 500 posts is not a lot of the time they have been registered.
As for me, I usually make about 40 posts a day. I would have about 10k posts but I went inactive for a few months.

They usually just boost them post count :L

I joined on the 15th which will be 10 days tomorrow..
I only have 271 posts..that's ok right?

Because they see topics like this, that required only one reply but yet multiple users reply with the same answer as the user above.
This threads a good example as it's now spread over 5 pages.

People are active on this site.

I'm a 1 year member and only have 10 posts..

Alot of people just reply to every topic when they open General discussion, where as others just reply and post there own?

Wildly wrote There is one guy that joined a few days ago yet has 300+ posts because he was posting on every thread just to bump it.
'Bump bump! hope this helps you find your answer'
Not saying any names, but I find this annoying as hell. Be a legit poster and post real things, that help people, not just bumping threads.

That guy is annoying as hell, every thread you look at, he's like "BUMP".

Also, back to the topic, alot of people spam in the forum games.

Well, either way, my hats off to you guys that have so much to say, day in and day out. I'm just not really a typist for one. I'm also more inclined to play Xbox where I can speak into a mic and moreover, use the site to remain informed about various gaming elements. i.e. modded lobbies, game reviews, etc. I'll tell you one thing. I'm thinking of using the Dragon voice recognition software for this site, because just like this reply that I'm typing, I often get lengthy in my responses and it makes my dang hands tired. Thus, the fatigue discourages me. Additionally, I'm really anal about font, color, and bold facing, so the whole process is just very tedious... xD
