Over 1000 posts and only 200 rep? No offence, but most users would think all your posts were pointless/useless.
Number of posts doesn't mean you've contributed. If you contribute or help users, you get rep in return.
So if someone contributes, they'd have a decent amount of rep anyway. But if all you do is post pointless shit, you'll end up with a high post count and low rep.
Even if you don't care about rep, users will judge you by your post/rep ratio. And according to your logic, you don't know what a "rep whore" is.
But anyways, I just like chatting with members and being helpful. I'm mostly active in the PS3 exploits & hacks section, but that section isn't what it used to be
yeah, i probably made a fool of myself with my comment anyway, but surely if someone has a really high post count it means they have some dedication to ngu, whereas rep could be like, someone posting a guide as their only post, yet still having a lot of rep
