How is hiding post count gonna stop shitposters from memeing anyway.

If the post counter was removed from the forums, no-ones life would be any worse off in any measurable way.
Because your op is shit, and you're retarded.So why the angst in this thread then?
It hits a nerve because you look really out of touch with the current posting trends, 2011 member with sub-1000 post count.but the responses show I've hit a nerve.
What a curious misreading. You issued a challenge which I accepted.some people see post count as something that gives them validation and increasing it is an aim in itself. As Lahey said, it's about quality rather than quantity. Remove post count and you're free to still post whatever you want, you just don't get a counter going up anymore.
To be clear, without the counter I wouldn't be able to measure how much more frequently he posts, which itself discourages my rate of (shit)posting. I expect a reply, good sir.I look at fantadomat's 19 posts/day average over the past 15 months and take comfort in quality over quantity.I challenge anyone to make a case for post count being anything other than an encouragement to shitpost.

This is why I visit these forumsGRPG and GG forums are clogged up to high heaven with shitposts
At the rate some of these retards post, I'm not so sure.that can't be an actual post count because some people have millions, which would be physically impossible.
....wait, there's a post count? I thought the only thing we had was a parrot count, and that can't be an actual post count because some people have millions, which would be physically impossible.
Looking for player two?

That must have been DU's less nuclear option. Make the post count so high it becomes meaningless. New proposal- give every user a random number of parrots between 50000 and 100000! Genius!
Oh, the explanation is quite simple, actually.At one point names, avatars and post counts were all removed at the same time. Unfortunately it led to a steep increase in shitposting activity, confounding sociologists.

"I can't fap to my post count. Or my avatar. Or my cool name. Welp, I can always shitpost I guess."
