I think it's a matter of pride. Cars and houses and gadgets have little relevance here, post counts on the other hand do.

(and mine just went up by one :P)

It gets harder the more you have, think about how many posts I have to make to get even a 1% increase, and I'm not even the top poster anymore.

I have to do math at work...I'm not going to do it on my day off.

Wichita's post count increases linearly by 1.

I wish my post count would increase as if it were a geometric series, starting at 1 with a common ratio of something like 10 or so....

Our post counts could be modulated by the Kroenecker delta such that only posts possessing subject orthogonal with the initial topic would be subject to adjustment.

Then we would be thoroughly screwed.
