User post count
I think it would be nice if under your username it showed the total number of posts you had posted, not just 100+, 500+, and 1000+. We clearly have enough space for it, so why doesn't the total number of posts you've posted show instead of just 100+ etc? If there's room for 1000+, why can't we have the fact that someone has posted 237 posts displayed?

No. Don't support.
The post count is like this to prevent competition between Scratchers and/or bragging. I think we should keep it the way it is.

That's exactly why they rounded it down (which actually takes more code). No. Don't support.

If one user had 121 (just a fandom number) and one had 498, then the user with 498 posts could comment “I HAVE 498 POSTS YOU SUK”.

This suggestion has already been officially rejected:
35. Show exact post count of other usersAs a result, this thread should probably be closed.The reason that post counts were made “fuzzy” in the first place was to de-emphasize the importance attached to the post count - to prevent spamming for post count. We don't want people focusing on “the numbers” - but rather working to make quality posts that encourage meaningful communication. I see no real benefit from making it easier to see the exact number.
