Can we get them back off the forum posts and only into member profiles again? Much thanks.

Because it's much more streamlined without them and because I know it would be less distracting for the simpletons among us.

I'll leave this up for 2 days, whichever gets the most votes wins.

I vote with Nate. Postcounts on profiles only, if even that.

Yeah, post countless would be swell, but it's not a big deal.

i never liked post-counts. it really just leads to spamming and thread jacking to get the post count. plus it leads to an overblown sense of post-penis seniority.

Can we still make poles to go with our threads? Or did that go with the update?

I like it better without post counts. It kind of evens out things for newcomers.

I'm in favour of no postcounts, yes.

I'd like to see what someone's arguement for post counts would be.

I sort of liked them when I came here. They told me who was an established sort of cultie, and who else was a newbie.

I don't have a problem with post counts, but I am sick of people bitching about how they are being picked on because of their low post counts, which i don't think has ever actually been true. The dudes are usually picked on because they are pricks, or something arbitrary. but not post counts. So I say chuck 'em.
could someone with mod powers in the website forum maybe make this a poll?

The post count is wrong in the members' list. It orders members according to the 1st digit of the post count.

Ex : a member with 9 posts will be listed ahead of a member with 865 posts.
