Of course post count has no relation to business ability, but it does have a direct correlation to familiarity. I've seen a lot of business done over drinks and loud music, and a lot more business done because someone reckognizes someone else. That's the way of the world and that transfers onto internet message boards as post counts.
I'm no different, I'm diliberatley trying to get my post count up so that the next time I meet everyone they'll already know me. I have no doubt that will make business a lot easier. If nothing else, it gets introductory small talk out of the way, which is conversation hell to me.
