Somehow, I expect this poll to skew heavily towards posters with large number of posts, and away from the lower numbers.

**noClueBoy** notwithstanding.

When I saw the title of this poll the first thing I thought was, I bet the op has recently passed a nice big round number of posts, and that whatever round number that is I bet it’s just higher than one of the increment options offered in the poll, and that that tier is probably a slightly unusual number, unlike the other tiers, like, say, 6000 instead of 5000, but all the following tiers after it would fall back into properly round increments of 5,000… Not that there’s anything wrong with that 😛

I only noticed my recently hitting the 6,000 level after I went to check my total after I started editing the poll-I went back and forth several times on the middle intervals (from 1K to 5K to 10K at first), but wanted another interval in there to make it come out a bit more aesthetically even. \<shrug\>
