Post Counter

[Edgar]

post count indicator should be removed.

title should be reviewed and given only if necessary, not based on posting numbers, as what most of the people here are aiming for.

Of course, those people who have been in this forum long enough would appreciate the quality of postings we have had before.

I also think this should be removed as this might keep a lot of the pointless posts out of the forums.

[Wayno]

Remove the post counter, but keep the "Status" (VIP, Rookie, Legend, etc) and include a definition on the "About Us" page (or somewhere like that) as it's important to know who you are talking with...

I do not think that removing the post counter will reduce the number of 'irrelevant' posts by a significant number. This is because 'irrelevance' is a very subjective word. Something that may be considered 'irrelevant' by one forum member may be important or significant for another.

Furthermore I find it hard to believe that there would be people out there who would post for the sole purpose of increasing their post count. If there are people like this, my message to you is quite simply; get a life! Seriously, how pathetic, that something so trivial would be so important to you.

Such people exist on SSC. Now that I can't just delete the spam, I notice it a lot more.

BTW I am fully aware that this is adding another post to my count Wilkiebarkid :wank:

Lighten up Pistol, it was quite clearly a lighthearted joke and did not warrant the use of an offensive symbol.

Quite honestly who cares about the post count? Out of approximately 1200 memebers there would be less than 0.1% (i.e 1) trying to increase their posts.

I think you're shooting blanks over this issue, Pistol!
