Okay, they don't have the best grammar but they're posting and they're interacting with other users in a kind manner. Obviously you think that's low quality. See how people have different outlooks on things?
You can't measure something like the quality of a thread because everyone has different perspectives.

As admin, you still visit your forum though am I not correct? Therefore that technically still makes you a visitor. Administrator or not, google still counts you as traffic toward the site.

True, but my point here was that, i'm sure there's at least one or more people that will think within the same range as you for what HQ is and what it isn't.

That was only my example to the lengthliness of the post, and the usefulness. If someone posted that on a thread (with similar length and quality) for something like a tutorial, and they had said "great tut..." could you not say that it would be an average measurement for most people as a low quality post?

Now you're just making assumptions based on what you interpret for what I meant. I was talking about the quality of the post, not the person behind the post in any way for personality or character.
I'll make a new example since you don't seem to understand what i'm getting at.
Here's an example straight from SF: http://www.supportforums.net/showthread....#pid223776
I don't think this needs much explanation, "show" instead of "slow" and it's less than a proper sentence length too. Now i'm assuming your going to try and tell me, "at least he kind of explained what ISP he was using" so here's another for you: http://www.supportforums.net/showthread....#pid218827
*Look at the OP and his post and tell me how that's helpful or a quality post on his part

People are people, and it doesn't mean everyone's perspectives will be different, which you are trying to assume here. Either way I was just trying to make sure that you were aware about Quality vs. Quantity, I never pointed out your forum for low quality posts. People at your site don't seem to have a reason to post low quality, you just assumed that I was directing that comment to the post quality on your forum. I mentioned it because you seemed too worried about reaching that 2000 post goal here.
Edit: Where's the rules on your forum?
