It is really annoying to see nearly once a day old topics being bumped for no reason.

Check the dates of topics before you post.

Also more annoying is seeing people post on topics 'Post Count' or posting short posts just to get post count.

Let me remind all of you, Post Counts have been lowered and even warns been given for doing this. So stop it.

That is all.

I agree with this post.
It's also a shame that not all staff agree with you Jayson, as many do it neko2.gif

I blame the awards. We should re-think the way they work. Atm it's more about the post count than it is the actual awards.

Make a new topic then...

There are like 10 topics per day, and like 10-20 old topics from the day before still being posted on.


You don't need to bump a topic from over 2 weeks ago.

3 People have been warned for their posts on this topic.

I suggest anyone who thinks it will be funny to joke on this topic change their mind now.

On a less serious topic, I wouldn't mind spam, but this is undermining Jayson's message, so I support the warn levels handed out.

Joe, let this be proof you're not the only one.

Why do people honestly care about a little counter on a website, Its meaningless and the only thing it shows is maybe forum activity and that doesn't take many posts to be forum active..

Imo you should take post count away all together just to stop needless spam and Un-constructed posts (No paragraphs, Three word responses(unless its signups or whatever)). Every other forum in clans guilds and other games doesn't have post count to stop resurrecting posts that should either be archived or left alone.

If people wanna read a few month(Few year old in most cases) they will read it themselves, rather than some kid trying to get a higher number on forums for no reason whatsoever by posting in a 3year old topic. On wow forums you get banned from them on other forums you get posting rights taken away etc.

Personally I think any punishment for post count spam should be dealt out or just remove the post count noone should care about it and forum admins can still see it anyway to monitor activity biggrin.gif

This is truth. ^

But everyone saying about post count and not wanting spam, I have to wonder if I should remove the 30 posts required to graduate.

If we are cracking down on spam that may make it a bit rough for the new to forum people to get the count. They have to be able to get comfortable with posting. That's why I never say anything to the trials or newer members that do the short messages.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

is the day you have stopped leading them.
They have either lost confidence that you can help them
or concluded that you do not care.
Either case is a failure of leadership.”
