post count

[Guest]

i know post counts gone will stop some spam but wont that make people free to smam? like id see what someones post count when i first came on till later in the day this would tell me who spams... we all know the people that spam infact they will be posting in this thread. wink wink

personally i liked it on.

I like it off, people won't get pissed at everyone and call them noobies when they ask a question and they have like 10 posts.

I like to know how many posts people have out of my own curiosity, but I feel that they do encourage spamming however.

Im not really sure if it is such a good idea since it may encourage spamming all the same, but why not have it so that the only person who can see your post count is YOU. I like to know how many posts ive made, I can't really explain why I like to know but I just do, and I suspect there are alot of others that feel the same way.

The Mullinator: thats a great idea.

 

[Jagermeister]

I'm for anything that helps reduce the spamage.

 

[crabcakes66]

Off....it prevents spam.

If you've sent a Private Message to someone then go to your 'Private Messages' and select 'Sent Items' that will show you your post count.

Well that isnt a very convenient way...

 

[Fat Tony!]

You already sad it in your first post.
As for this vote, nothing going to change, this is not a democracy.

 

[Guest]

now no one can see that i am a 35 post veteran on these forums :flame:

 

[The DemonWithin]

I liked it on, my goal was to get to 666 posts

 

[Mitoboy]

I like it better off. More people don't spam.

But then people say to themselves "Hey, no post count, I mine as well spam becasue it doesn't matter any more."

You're screwed pretty much any way you put it. But it helps more with it off.

My vote goes to 'off'.

 

[Jhahn2k4]

Doh, can you switch my vote to no, cuz I selected yes :O

 

[Majestic XII]

Keep the counters OFF and keep the spam DOWN.

 

[Login_Here]

Well said Majestic XII.

Im with Majestic, it will be more spam if we keep the post counters.

 

[SpuD]

It reduces the need to posts excesively and spam when its off.

 

[ComradeBadger]

Yep... and it reduces judging people by their post count, this way, you only know the post count of your buddies who PM you

there is no yes or no. On or Off?

 

[EVIL]

b..b..but what about reaching 10.000 post's and your 3000 post goal?

bww..

jkiddin offcourse.

BTW badger. how is everlastignshadow going! having fun with it? and i dont see you on irc alot

 

[ComradeBadger]

Yeah, go check out our mod thread in General Editing... it's all good .... you mean on the #narcgaming channel? or the HL2.net 1...
? Cos I don't know how to use that

 

[RabidMeatloaf]

Well I vote for no.

BUT...I think It would be cool if we could have periods with it on, like every four months, so we could see how much we'd posted since the last time the post counts were on...

 

[StarMonkey]

poll all you want, im not putting them back on

 

[Gunner]

I say off is better, but custom titles would be nice

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

Looks like the poll makes no difference. The new "Munrocracy" option already has more votes than any other in the first 30 secodns its been there.

 

[Guest]

whhyyyyy my thread whyyyyyyyy

 

[synth]

Munro didn't make the decision this time. He is AWAY, remember? I'm sure when he gets back he'll like it this way, though.

call it a StarMonkeycracy if you want.
