And I think that at least five other members must agree that the post is useful and on-topic. Then you should get credit.
To ensure we're on equal footing, all post counts should be reset to zero. FT members should be randomly assigned to five member teams and the entire FT archive will be split up among those teams to read, rate and credit posts.
Who the heck has the time to do that? I originally came to FT for advice and information, which I still do. There are times when I do not have the time to post for days, even weeks.
I initially assumed that a huge post count meant that the poster was probably very informed and very travel wise.
I have since realised that they probably have a lot of spare time.
