Title: NOTE: Post Counting is Disabled Here
Post by: Little Wolf on March 29 2005, 03:19 am
To prevent spamming of the forums, all posts here will not be credited.

They won't increase the post count of any member (including me :D ).

This board is all just for fun!  :tongue:

But this board (Chains Board) could be abused...you'll know why later in the coming months why this is important for us. something to do with the games and the shop section... :D

Good idea. In a few other forums I frequent, they are setting theirs up the same way since ppl were racking up big post counts with the avatar, quotes and three word story games...not that having a high post count means a whole lot to me. It the quality of the post and not the quantity that counts for me.

Sorry if this post may sound offensive to some people but.............

I have to agree with Arcademan because geting a high post count or rank does not get you anywhere.
If you constantly post something which is SPAM/off-topic/one word posts/rubbish then its like joining a forum just to get a higher rank. We basically join forums to talk to people around the world, make friends and get more info/knowlegde on the forum subject (in this case it will be TRC & CCS) and NOT to get high post counts.

I am an Admin on a TMM forum & I almost felt like diasbling post counts from all the boards because all members care about is their post counts and their are too many discussions about it, so I am sick of it!

Thanks for agreeing with me. In a couple of forums i go to, the administrators turned OFF the counts. The only way to see them is to look up the person's personal profile. For better or worse, post counts are a necessary evil to some and not always a bad thing. Without them, a forum may go stagnant and dead :)

Yep, I agree, post count is fun, but there isn't any reason to have it count on chains and games.
And I agree with what I've heard before, quality over quantity.
