Forums without post counts...

Although I don't care for a high post count, I think bigger contributors should be differentiated. Forums that lack post count always have a weaker community.
 
I'm one of the last few 2 year vets/seniors here. :(

*cries*

No, you misunderstand - I said that I was referring to those that maintain at least a semi-active part in the community and originate in May 2003 have the most seniority, as they've been a part of the community the longest. You're a May 2004 noob :p

jus admit it, u don't want to see Stern happy and perhaps have a boner over all this, do ya? :E
 
It ain't 2 years for you yet mutha ****a.
 
Close enough motha ****a

I was lurking since May, the only real reason I signed up was to view a photoshop contest.
 
I hate the idea of post counts :| thats why I intentionally had mine reset to prove a point
 
Well, the post counts are 'interesting', but they don't really have a practical use. The same with the join dates.
 
I vote to keep them. (Join Dates that is) Get rid of post counts.

edit: And stop picking on may 2004 :(
 
yup, hide post counts, but leave join date.

2 years, go me.
 
I don't see the big hoo-hah with post counts.

Fair enough, if you have a large post count, fine. But forum-go'ers shouldn't be judged by a number.

Remember - quality, not quantity. ;)
 
Post counts are like the amount of orgasms you have received. Everybody wants more more more!

+1!
 
How about get rid of post counts, of join dates. But institute costum titles. So if you are a regular you can request a custom title. That should differenciate the regulars from the newbie's.
 
Is there any need for differentiation? Noob/'veteran' (god I hate that word in a forum context), who really cares?

There should be no difference.

The veterans will still be seperate from the noobs based on what they post, not by their postcount. Vets generally make better posts than retarded noobs.

Postcounts could also still be avialable when you view someone's profile maybe.
 
yes i know that i make some really, really stupid posts, but i have made some good ones too. some of the noobs know what they are talking about (and yes i know that i am a noob here) and some of them could be a person that could help contribute to the forums, who knows we could have a CptStern jr on our hands someday and never know it. all im saying is that some noobs are better than others. ie. foxhoundunit(some random nubers) when he went off on the IM talk...anyways just give some of the newbies a chance to prove themselves
 
Well, i'm not old, and not new. But could we have something that shows not just how much you post, but where the most.
So you could see where they spend their time...

maybe it's a good idea, probably hard to implement.
 
It kinda shows your character, well sorta.
And people could get say "Highest 'Fan-Fic' Poster" title for a week. But you could only have it once a month, just so politics doesn't always go to CptStern.

hard to make, but would be fun.
 
If you are a person contributing to the positivity of the forum it shows. Postcount or join date doesn't really matter.

Harij does know what he's talking about i guess, it's fine the way it is.
