look, Grenadiac is working on sigs and avatars, he is thinking about using a PHP mod to monitor then, just be patient.

Just because he is taking away post counts does not mean he is taking away post counts. He is just going to stop them from being displayed...you can still check it if you clikc on the profile...And gren, if that is not true, please correct me. Like Spartan III said, it will increase n00b topics, but it is not like any of our n00bs post anyway...

, we have about 4000 accounts with 0 posts and about 500 with 1-30 posts...not good, it is mucking up the site...taking away public visualization of post counts will take some of the spam away, but if you are really concerned, you could always update your post count in your sig every day...if you want...

i like post counts being displayed, i got used to it. (Insert cry smiley here)

Removing the post count's not going to stop spamming at all. Very few ppl spam just to get their post count up(as far as I know). I may spam(

), but I don't do it to get a higher post count. I just like saying things.

Duffman · Post by **Duffman** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 9:07 am

OT: Does anyone else not like these new skins for the forums? it makes it alot harder to tell what's new and what's not new and what's popular and what's not popular.

it may just be a number to you, but the post whores of the site worked hard to get that many

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 12:26 pm

well, it does give you a little standing, but Duffmn, I would advise you to not reference it as your ego

post whores dont post purely for the point of t3h number... they post a lot because they can and they feel like it

EqUiNoX · Post by **EqUiNoX** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 12:29 pm

yeh, I used to post whore cus I was bord...

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 12:31 pm

then try going outside and doing something

the reason I post whore is because I have insomnia (which I wont define for like the 9,000,000th time, go dictionary.com it!), meaning I have ample time to post whore at night.

Do you actually have insomnia, or do you just have a hard time going to sleep? I'm not trying to say that you're wrong, but I hate it when ppl say stuff like "I have narcolepsy" just because they fall asleep alot or "I'm anorexic" just because they happen to not eat very much. Unless a doctor says you have something, I usually don't put too much faith in people's comments on disorders such as these. No offense.

I like the post count on.
It gives me POWER!
Even though I only got like about 515 I think I can get something out of that eh?(I'm not canadian)
BTW:The skin is NICE!
And that guy is like the only guy who actually click the more emotions button for that neutral face

BTW #2: Why the hell is there a GREEN face?

It's weird and it was from the gta forums(Which forums is really hate)
I know yellow faces are weird but GREEN just toke it to the next level

.
EDIT: If you turn off the post count most likey the N00BS who can't see them are gonna aim for elite, jackal, or hunter status then just 50post
UGH thats could cause a SPAMMING RIOT!
OH this won't be good.

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 6:00 pm
