Are you under the impression that there’s a prize for that?

I’ve run into people here who’ve said things like “I’m padding my post count”. Does ANYone care how many times someone tweets or posts, especially if there’s no new information?

I’d hope the opposite would be true. Free advice: make your point succinctly, then stop. Take the time to listen, and learn. Or go outside and play.
