Oh Cayaya, why do you hate the post-counts so much? They just wanna be your friend!

What was wrong with post counts again? I've never really considered it a competition of any kind. But it's kinda funny to see the numbers.

Ah crap. I forgot to disable them again. Again.

nope, they destroy forums because people compete too much with it and get egos from their post count.

even though I've never seen that.

ever.

This.

I recognized some people more by their post count than their avatar, or screen name, to be honest.

I guess it's one of those "one person hates it, so it must be bad" kinda things.

Post counts do nothing positive.
They have SOME negative effects, SOMEtimes.

That's all that's important.

Shego, I think that extra 24 on your post count really seals it's awesomeness, don't change a thing.

Shegokigo

Well yeah, it's 42 backwards.

Bah. Let them be, nuke them, remove them, attach a six-digit Member Number to each forumite... don't give a damn, really.

Why use posts counts when we can rank each other on profile views?

To find your member number, just unroll the condom completely for a change.

Also, Rob, who the heck did you recognise by post count?!

It's all by name/avatar for me.

Sep 3, 2009#19

Calleja

I go for first avatar, then name, to be honest.

Sep 3, 2009#20

Shegokigo

You all have names? :bush:

Sep 3, 2009#21

Bubble181

Sure. There's that hot girl, that other hot girl, the really hot girl, the flashing penguin, that owl guy, the awesome cat, the gorilla, and the leprechaun. Easy! :-P

When I switched from Garland to Sinatra I got a comment about "Welcome to the boards!"

when I'm on my iphone I zoom in and the side bar with the names isn't always visible, so sometimes I go by sig.

Not lately. Used to be a pretty fun guy, but I think he found a girlfriend or something and abandoned us. It's the story of life for this forum. We'll put him in a list with this cat-avatar-batman-guy-dude :'(

On a completely unrelated note, in my profile I posted a picture of last night's pillow fight at the nursing academy dormitory next door. Possibly NSFW.
