I say we nerf post counts. No posts should count. Ever. We should all be set to 42 posts, and then no more counting of posts.

What face? This one?:

I think it should be.  There are great WoT onversations going on.  Post count is often used to measure a person's participation within the community.  We might not remember every active person in the community, but we can look at post counts and see whether they are serious about being here or just dropping in to start crap.

 

Ah, but if you are active within the community you are also visible, which, depending on if you are visible for the right reasons, is better than a postcount.

 

For checking out if people you don't remember are "serious", a look at their post history is probably more revealing than a number.

For the record; I've been here since January and I already know each and everyone in this thread by name and even some of their interests and persona. Antimatter is quite right; if you participate, you get seen. E.g No one thinks Commissar as a newbie, he's so visible a character.

 

Yeah, and if I get to choose, we'd get rid of post counts entirely. That way newcomers wouldn't see me as the post whore I really am. :D

This seems like it would be a good idea :huh:

 

And What purpose do the levels serve anyway?

How about we replace it with a midichlorian count?
