IMHO, all members of the NSBB community are important. I personally feel that message board communities tend to put too much stock in things such as post counts. A quality poster is a quality poster based on the quality posts, not the number of posts. Some of my favorite posters on this site have fewer than 2,000 posts, and many of that group have fewer than 1,000. I know, but sometimes it's fun to know where you stand. Maybe a "poster of the week" each week? *flashback of cubs.com*
