Post count!

[quote="WildSimba"]The arcade is meant for more spammy posts, why do they need to be meaningful there? I think we need to more focus on getting the TLK forum back on it's feet.[/quote]

Yes it is for more ''spammy posts'', but it doesn't mean that it's for typing nonsense. Bringing the post count into those forums means that people might actually post more there,because they're not discouraged by the fact that it doesn't increase their post count.
Sure, people like that might be spammers,but at the end,making spammers post in the arcade will prove beneficial for them not posting spam as much in the TLK forum and by that,get it back on it's feet.

Yes, which is exactly why I like that the Staff decided to enable post counts in those areas again, it's more benificial to allow them to have their way in the Arcade, so TLK forums won't be all spammy. At this point, it's hardly even a section of the board I want to post in. =/

Precisely... :evil:
Yeah,I know what you mean, I don't post there as often either.
Although the big fuss about who has the bigger post count is only gonna get worse after this... :yawn2:

Yeah, this should just be more of a temporary solution. To be honest, I think I'd be better just to take away post counts. That way, there'd be nothing to complain about. Like, does it really matter that much the number of posts you made? I've been seeing these post counts since I joined my first forum when I was 12... I'm 17 now, and really don't care about them anymore. All in all, this is just an internet forum, and should be treated as such. :) People should just be happy we don't have to pay in order to get on here, because a lot of forums make it exclusive to only people who are willing to pay money.

Personally, I believe that completely taking away the post counts would solve all the spam problems. I don't see any downside to this, why would anyone want to know how high their post count is?

Exactly. There might a bit of a crapstorm at first, but people will eventually see why it's better for this forum. And yeah, it would solve the spam problems, and I agree that I don't know why anyone would really even care about how high their post count is. Really, with the Karma system, and the post count taken out, this forum would be nice, because people would try to be more productive in order to get good karma. :P

For all of you who are saying that I am over-thinking this: You are absolutely correct. This is why I am not PMing Moka to revert the change and all that. Can't I just say that I hate all forms of Spam?

Sometimes I think too much...
