I agree - as long as it is consistent, the count doesn't matter to me whether it is 100 or 11,000. I'm more inclined to look at the "join date". To me, a date of March 2001 is more likely to be responded to than one showing March 2007! (Although I wouldn't say the March 2007 poster is not trustworthy!)
