What is your level to post ratio?

Your level isn't based on posts. It's based on how much you use the site and its features. Also, it's completely useless.

Yeah, your amount of posts is small compared to your level. Most guys my level have at least twice the amount of posts that I do.

It really does not matter. Some of the highest level users I have seen have under 5000 posts,and I have seen people with a lot lower levels who have only been here a year a two with twice as many posts as me. So it really does not mean much.

I've seen level 30+ with less than 20 posts, I hardly notice post and levels anymore (unless there's a 10k party) so it doesn't matter...

I agree. personally,even when it comes to you mods I pretty much just recognize users by their names and avatars.

Why does Gamespot insist on the level thing? Just confuses noobs thinking there is a hidden RPG in the site or something like that.

What fun is there in watching a progress bar slowly go from 0% to 100% and see a number rise by one. It should be able to go down with inactivity, the same way it goes up by using the site. Too long without showing up and BAM!, back to level 1. Maybe not so severe, but you get the idea. Now that would be an incentive to be around.

To be honest, I'd rather skip the post count. It seems to confuse newbies into thinking that quantity > quality

Remove both level and post count then. We don't need random numbers to tell if a user types quality posts. That notion should be taken from the posts themselves. With levels and post counts we risk having annoying users that just post everywhere, even if their contribution is close to zero, in order to advance faster and then demanding "e-respect" because they have a high level or post count.
