Post count removal

#1 I've been thinking about this for a while. What's the point of a post count? There's really no point it. They say people post dumb stuff like "gl with your clan" because they just want to get their post count up higher. People also get judged by the number of posts they have. They think that because you don't have a high post count, you won't get much respect. In the gfx shops, they have these rules where you need a certain amount of posts to request a sig or avi. I think that that's just not fair. Just because you don't have enough posts, doesn't mean you don't deserve a signature. Who's to say someone didn't spam there way to that 1000 post mark? I know I did(shh) So what I'm trying to say is, that they should just get rid of everyone's post count or just rest it to 0 and make it so that it doesn't go when you post(just like in the off topic section). I'm suggesting this because I can't find one good thing about having these post counts. Not knowing how many posts someone has will make it easier for everyone. They won't get judged and it might decrease some of the spam around here. This is just my suggestion. I want to know what everyone else thinks. Do you think they should keep the post counts or just remove them? Please explain your answer and keep it spam free.

Just because someone has 3560 posts does'nt mean their ingame is good. it means they have no life. Waiting for photoshop

#11 Quote by leychance One Two I could find another, but my connection is getting slow. lol, are you serious? I did not know that. I wouldn't have posted this if you guys actually agreed to the idea. Why hasn't it been removed yet? I'll guess i'll find my answer in one of those threads I guess Hibernating Credit goes to Torn II Tagage by Amatsuka Remembering the 47Ronin Quote by CrimsonBlood "Fighting for your soul, defending what is yours.

#12 Quote by leychance This has been suggested before, even when the forums were just released. A forum without post count doesn't make any sense. We just resorted or removing the post count on some parts of the forums, which people often frequent. I think I posted this on one of those. That is why we do selective removal of post counts.

#13 Quote by kytherno And right now, it works better. Shows how experienced someone is. I just feel like responding to this, how utterly this is bullcrap. In exactly what does "higher post count" show you're more experienced in? Posting things that makes sense? No. Posting things that contribute something to the discussion / topic itself? No. Common sense? No. Spamming? Yes. Shows that you've been around for long time? No. Shows you know what you're talking of? Not necessarily. Gives you respect from the young, yet to be known spammers? Yes. Who ever thought that "higher post count = famous or / and respect" is one hell of a stupid person, really. The bigger post count, the more likely odds are that certain percentage of your posts are coming from the massive amount of spam posts in random sections. In other words, I'm all in for the removal of post count. Tsundere(s) - What makes anime worth it. Quote The heart beats without love, It has to, We're all alone in this world.

#14 I too am for removal of post counts. Instead, can't we just have reputation system or maybe some points?
