I gotta admit, I do factor in how long a guy's been a member here and his post count. Somebody with at least several hundred posts and who has obviously been posting about other things for a while comes across as having more credibility. When somebody only posts once or twice to complain about an outfitter then doesn't return and respond to people who might have questions or thoughts on his complaint, it makes you wonder about them. Not saying they're lying but it's kinda hard to know if they're really giving you the whole story or not. When i can read somebody's posts about different subjects and topics, I can get a feel for how they think and approach stuff.
