Remove the Forum Post Counter

Postby crfernald » Sun Sep 13, 2015 8:39 am

I'd like to talk about something that I think we're all thinking, but haven't really had a chance to say.

There's a certain group of people, particularly one person with roughly 6,000 posts that joined in W4, that post non-stop irrelevant bullshit over and over again to buff their post counter for those ePenis™ points.

You can view a user's posts by clicking on their profile, so taking the post counter away doesn't remove any functionality on figuring out how much someone has posted.

In short:

-Remove the forum post counter
-Painhertz stops spamming so much
-Other spammers are discouraged from buffing their post counter with useless shitposts.

While I was banned for aeons I would still read the forums, and seeing a certain one or two, mostly one person spamming for their post counter gave me eye tumors that needed to be surgically removed. If anything, at least reset the post counts.

It's a new world after all. :^)

Why should we rewrite history. Sometimes we need reminders of the past so we make sure it never happens again. :)

I have a better idea, how about you eat a big ole bag of dicks and go back to being ignored like you have for years now. There's a good boy.

Again, the posts are still there and viewable on your profile.. There's the join date to show your history, anyhow.

Thought you meant me for a second.

Nah, I like the counter.
