I miss the post counts, and all things considered, I'd like them back too.
It gave me something to be proud of. I felt like it said "hey, he's been here a while, he contributes."
I was always really impressed when someone with a low post count said something really cool, and disappointed when a high poster blatted on about nothing.
One more bit of information about the person speaking, it's up to the reader what to take from a high or low count, but at least with it the information is there.
