WARNING: MATHS
basically this judges your post count more on how many digits your post count has rather than the number itself
let's call your post count PC logarithmic post count LPC, then
LPC = log_10(PC) (or "log PC, to base 10")
use wolframalpha or a calculator it can do it easily
it will give you a number between 1 and 5, some basic milestones:
0 posts : ERROR 1 post : LCP = 0 10 posts : LCP = 1 100 posts : LCP = 2 1,000 posts : LCP = 3 10,000 posts : LCP = 4 100,000 posts : LCP = 5
so basically it's just a more measured way of being better than other people
mine is 4.59 (3.s.f)

decent calculators use e as the default base
but yours may do
punch in, say, log 1000, if the result is actually 3 then it's working in base 10 |

You don't need to say log_10
It's just log
Because logarithm's default base is already 10
And what you're saying about logarithm base e
It's natural logarithm
ln
I'm being an idiot, by being a lousy degenerate idiot who ruins the entire thread with my negligence |

| Most calculators use base 10 when log has no specified base. |
