just for future reference...if you post in certain areas (the lounge is one) posts do not count...basically any non-tech areas of the board

They don't count so that it is more difficult for scammers to earn the ability to post items for sale. Post count doesn't really matter beyond that :)

except that you are more likely to take information for fact if you have over 1000 posts

There are people here who don't have very many posts but have quite a few years (decades in some cases) of automotive experience, so too many assumptions should not be made just because of high post count or lack thereof. :)

exactly. i'm just a post whore. i don't know everything. neither does jrp ;)(even tho he's a much bigger whore than i am.)
