Post count

Unread post by i like tictacs » Tue Nov 02, 2004 3:12 pm

Can we abolish post counts visible under each person name? You should be able to go to profile to see how many posts but there are just alot of posts that get posted to raise the post count. I am guilty of it too, we all are. It would be good for the site and alot less shit to sift through.

how about deducting 2 posts from your post count for every useless comment.

I've considered this in the past, but I think the backlash from this would be too great. Hell, the biggest postwhore is Jared :P

In the future you may see a system that would yield a more accurate view of a poster than their postcount.

I don't like that karma crap if that's what you mean.

A backlash? Against what? "OMG WTF I CANT SEE MY POSTS I GUESS I WONT POST JUST ICONS ANYMORE..."

I do'nt know, I just think that it would reduce the crap posts.

Just don't do that "posting frequency" shit that they do at ami. I can just see it now: "My bar is almost full! I'm going to keep posting till it is!"

I noticed that, but that has nothing to do with my suggestion. It was funny though.
