Who cares about post counts?

Best idea ever!

Post counts? Really useless I'd say.
Does nothing except giving bragging rights.
"Oh you noob! You have only 20 posts!"
"I'm a pro! I have 2k posts!"

Its neither constructive nor useful, and most of all some people spam and spam their way to gain most post and I have no idea how you can get 2k post in such a short time. Either you don't read threads, (see the title and just post) or you just love typing things that doesn't correspond with the thread =/

Away with the post counts! (But leave the post count description lol, sometimes they are pretty nice to read.)

Say Someone with 10 posts states his opinions on a certain subject. And just because he is a 'n00b' people won't pay attention to him or care as much. Then two days later someone with 1k+ says the same thing, and everyone agrees and says, 'you're the champ!' 'here's a quarter' 'go 1k+ post user' 'you rock man!' you get my point. >_>

Very true... When I was in a the "Are there any girls on ONRPG thread?" People would be posting their thoughts but everyone just quoted me and said "Who are you again?" It was annoying.

I kinda like having the highest post count at OnRPG :p
