Post Counts

I'm pretty proud of you guys for not griping the fact its been on for the past week and a half.

But time is soon for the new skin and wanted to know if you guys can live with it on or would you prefer it off. I'm just hoping you guys are out of the "Spamming for my post count faze".

I say yes, only so that we can marvel at what we have achieved, and at what other have achieved. People here have made limitless contributions and helped countless others and I think they deserve to be recognised for that... Just my 2 cents, but what the hey :lol:

#189737

Spam! SPAAAAM!!

I just added another post :P

#189738

Ack I'm stupid poll editted

#189739

keep it on :6

:)

#189740

I couldnt care less, really, my vote is null

I dont like seeing i am a freak with 4000+ posts... it just makes me sad :P

#189745

if it's gonna be on, then how about just on the user's profile page, like it was in the last skin.

personally, i vote off though, too many kiddies fretting about post counts.

#189748

i dont really mind if it is on or not, on would mean more spam i guess

#189753

Its funny, post count doesnt mean anything. Everytime the database goes bye bye or someone has an unrepairable account problem post count is reset. For example, how many posts do I really have on AS? 600-700? Probably more like 5000-6000! And even with that many post counts, even that involved in the community, it still doesnt mean I know a damn thing about customization. :P

Leave em on, leave em off, just keep Seph around to destroy spammers and everything will be good. Imean honestly, with Seph around I don't feel the slightest need to moderate this place, he's 1000x more wicked than I ever was. In Seph we have a guy willing to edit, threaten, remove, ban and kill any idiot that wants to step out of line. And I SO RESPECT that!

Post counts are not correct, deleted and archive messaged were taken off, so people prob 100

/200 more posts.

#189758

Looking at my post count make my expectations of myself really high.

They are not nessessary.

#189761

Personally, I like seeing the post counts...keep it on please!

:naughty:

#189763

KILL KILL KILL. The post counts that is.

I say turn them off as they are pretty usless and soem people go "Look, I have 540 more posts than you, you must suck".

#189765

I like to see who is and who isn't active on the boards.

Look, I have 1988 more posts than you. You suck. :D

Now I'm over my new post (and A-S usage) quota for the day...

#189767

Look I have 500 more... ah, nevermind. :)

#189768

So Timmie, how is the new skin coming along?

You're not the only one who feels that way.

I keep meaning to get back to my former modding habits, but am so busy with work at the moment that I can't. Just a good job Seph keeps the place clean ;)

As for post counts, turn 'em off. Less incentive for dullards to post crap (as if they really needed an incentive!).

#189818

Off.

Like said earlier, people tend to judge others by their postcount, which is so stupid. I also think that the boxes/stars that indicate postcount are useless.

#189820

2 things:

1. Off

2. This poll just shows how much is spammed - We could have all answered just by voting but we each had to add a post....

#189845

Leave them on, but make it so that posts in the chit chat areas like here and general discussion don't count towards your total. That way spammy posts don't count, while useful ones do.

#189865

Turn em off, they only cause people to think theyre better than others because theyre more active
