In a single thread? No, not at all. I'll only post again if I have something to say again. I hate the DCC because it's so fast paced I can't at all keep up with the conversation. A few threads in VG I post regularly because only a handful of people actively post in those threads and it's easy for me to jump back into conversation.

I can come back if I care.

Also, I don't really think about my post count too much other than "Oh my goodness I'm about to get to the next digit!" so I've been thinking about that a lot in the past few days.

I've been top poster in a few threads in Other Trivia but I've never bothered to try to post more than once in threads outside of the trivia sections. So by default I don't care about post count or else I would be posting much more frequently out of those sections. I do post more than one in some threads (such as some fanclubs) but other than that it's usually 'one thread and then I'm on my way'.

I try to be the top poster in the DCC. It just makes me feel good and I usually have something to say there anyway. :3

In longer threads I tend to check a few times to see where I stand in posts, but in most threads I just don't care at all.

The only thread where I want to be the top poster is the Banned Users Thread. Just cause XD

I used to have petty races with people in the Count to Infinity thread in OT but I got bored when Nica ended up winning every. Single. One.

Not at all in a single thread, I could honestly care less. I'll reply to anyone who replies to my original post in a thread or reply to someone posts after mine, but unless it's some sort of DCC or a "What are you currently _____" thread, I'll never really post more than once.

I typically only post more than once in a thread if it's in Other Trivia or Challenges (multiple updates and whatnot). Otherwise, I'll drift in and out of some threads I've posted in to see what others have said, but I usually don't make another post. Unless someone's said something regarding my post, or if there's something else I've neglected to say that's significant enough to warrant another post.

With that said, no, I don't find myself trying to become the most frequent poster in a particular thread.

Nope. Sometimes I even start a thread then don't even check on it XD. I could care less how many times I post.

Oh my... Once upon a time, before most of you were even PC members, the DCC is where it was at. People would bite, claw, scratch and do whatever else "necessary" to amongst the top poster in that thread. I do admit that I was in fact one of these people. However, in my later years I have grown less "obsessed(?)" with such a status and just post for the sheer enjoyment of reading and sharing opinions.

I don't care about the amount of posts I make in one thread, but I do care about the amount I have in general to an extent; I try to maintain that high post count even though I don't really know where to post in lately other than OVP and the Pokemon-related forums.

I usually only post in thread one and ignore it. Depends on the type of thread though, if it's something like DCC where I need to post often to keep up with what's going on or a discussion then I'll post more than once. I've made multiple post in OT threads, most teh Rate The Song Above one, but that's about it.
I do go back to certain posts to see if someone quotes me or replies to me If so I always respond of course.

Oh wow I didn't even know people did this hahaha!
To be honest in most threads I post in, that kind of stuff doesn't really happen. Roleplaying threads and art threads, nobody but the creator is usually the top poster. And in OVP, I only ever check back to see if someone has made a comment about something I said, so... I guess the short answer is no, I don't particularly care!. ^ ^

Nah, I just post in a thread then leave it be, with the exception of clubs and role-play threads, of course. Being the person with the highest post count in any thread doesn't matter to me -- contribution or something is the one that's important.

I usually post in OVP where the amount of times I post in a thread is 1. :p

In threads where I do post multiple times, I very rarely check to see how many times I've posted. And even then it's not for where I rank, but to see how many times I posted just for the numbers. I don't have any desire to be top poster in any thread, and not even PC in general.

I'll check my standings in a thread occasionally but that sort of thing doesn't really concern me much. Usually if I'm the top poster in a thread, it makes me a little self-conscious because--especially if it's by a wide margin--I start to wonder if I'm just taking waaay to much interest in the thread and pushing activity where it doesn't necessarily belong or something like that.

I do care about postcount itself a fair bit though. It's a nice, tangible activity marker for me. I'm still a little bummed that Nica finally surpassed me as second-highest poster overall on PC. :P

I care more about the kinds of posts I make than the number of them. I'll usually reply to a thread only as many times as I feel it needs replying to so...no. I don't really pay attention to the number of times I've posted or what my postcount is.
