I admit that on some forums I roll my eyes and think "ho-hum, yet another post from someone who just wants to boost their post count."
I don't very often post on forums and sometimes days or even a couple of weeks go by without me posting anything. I think it's due to the same old topics hanging around, long past their sell by date and full of pointless one-liners that often have more smilies plastered into it than actual content.
There are vast sub-sections of forums that I never visit anyway due to not being interested in (or even bored by) the theme of a particular sub-forum. Sport, religion and motoring to name but a few as examples, although there are a lot more.

Being familiar with your quality and relevant posts you have lots to offer on many subjects!

Keep up with interest groups and join in discussions on things important to you.
Everything you say on forums can be viewed by anyone, you're more exposed. Which is why you need a user name I suppose, to stop people knocking on your door!
