Who Posts to WebmasterWorld the Most?
Is it the quantity of the post or the quality? I know my answer but let's see what everyone else thinks before I dive into the deep end of this pool.
2) S/he who has the most to say.
3) You'll find a lot of both here. Unsurpassed quality and limitless quantity.
2) In terms of number of posts or total number of words or charaters posted? There may be different answers depending on the exact definition of "most."
3) Is what the quantity or quality?
Who Salutes the Most? A private, major or general?

Both are important. Better to have ten posts which offer a little bit of help each than one post which is particularly helpful; in the latter case you have left nine question creators without an answer.
But who's to say that one excellent post won't help more people in total than 10 mediocre posts? Which type of post is more likely to get excellent replies from others which would compound its value?

I think context matters with this question. What is the purpose of posting? To help others? To increase your visibility? To brand yourself as an expert at something (JdMorgan and apache mod-rewrite springs immediately to mind on that one :)) You'd get a different answer from me for each one.

General Solutes the Most
Who Posts the most? Doesn't really matter as long as they are quality posts and relevant to our forum. Quality posts will inherently have people respond and the original poster will be inspired to reply in kind with even more qualitative bits of information surrounding the post.
I think grandpa really sums it all up with:

Heh, that's one of those questions in which the answer that seems most likely, probably isn't correct. My first thought was of course, general. Everyone envisions the milling masses of non-coms saluting the high ranking general and of course, the general has to return the salutes.
Truth is, enlisted men don't get a whole lot of contact with generals, generals tend to rub shoulders with a small group of officers. Lieutenants and Captains have much more exposure to enlisted personnel and they're also the ones that end up reporting to majors and colonels, who in turn report to generals.
So it's not simply a question of returning salutes, but a matter of which officer ranks have the most exposure to ranks that are required to initiate salutes.

On a plane full of Spaniards I stood up and saluted Gibraltar (saw it out of the window) whilst whistling the national anthem.

Probably not Webmasters.

I am a 'Senior Member'. Can anyone here think of one of my posts as quality? I started a thread on farts ffs?
Actually tell a lie, when I have time I have contributed a lot to the JavaScript fellows.
Maybe quantity in Foo, quality in useful stuff.

As a Naval Veteran, my guess is that Ensigns and Lieutenants are the ones subject to "Saluting Elbow".

Its always the quality. Quantity means nothing other than some of us have way too much free time on our hands. Or, we have a WebmasterWorld addiction. ;)
Heck, just the other day we were talking about how we like our Toast Buttered. :)
In all seriousness, quantity does come into the equation. Usually when someone has a higher post count, they've been around a little longer and have "learned the ways" of the board. They've also become wiser themselves just through the participation factor.

although quite relevant to the forum topic, not even the fart posts in foo count toward your senior membership.
so your quantity elsewhere is impressive...

Really? I didn't realise, I thought it just counted the total number of posts.
I like to think I am one of the better JavaScript programmers (at least those who contribute), based on what I've seen. I also post a bit in the Perl forum, not much though as not many people even attempt to use Perl.

And yeah, that's where my nick comes from. Some loopy pilot tagged me with Specialist Beetle when I first signed into an aviation unit. Couldn't get away from it. Even the CO used it when he pinned on my new SSG stripes and I became Sergeant Beetle.
