personally, my passion resides in the advice given, advice gleaned, friends met and fun times that my (OMNI & non-OMNI) post count represents. I'm proud of my post count, proud of my join date, proud of number of threads started, etc. (Of course I'd rather see a reputation & # of buddies features, Randy assigning the status of "evangelist", etc. but that's for another thread) In the meantime, post count is the only vBulletin metric Randy has chosen to turn on/display at this time.
