I agree with both Matt and Vicky and don't care about the post count from our chat thread and would happily turn it off...however post count can't be turned off just for one thread, it can only be done by section and when we post in other parts of the admin section we are contributing to the forum, we are discussing members bans, infractions, final warnings and so on.

When we post in Chat and Games we're contributing to the forum by actually chatting and talking during off season. Without Chat & Games, this forum would literally be dead for like 6 months.

Not really...lots of us watch TV shows and post in that section, the sports section is always active as well as the other reality tv shows that are on throughout the year.

I never post new threads in GC. I use C&G so it makes me look like I post here less lol

The tv section is rather spotty tbh, and the shows need 1 thread each so there still wont be many posts

I tend to do that too :laugh:

I think I would actually hate being one of those posters with like 70k posts (sorry niamh..nathan..whoever else :joker: )

I am ashamed enough of my 40k

Josy 26-04-2014 10:12 PM

Check this page for spamming yet people say there isn't a lot of spam, this is just one page...

I think they did that on purpose though for a joke...

Would you really see that happen daily?

Anyone I don't know why I care tbh I just started the thread that's it.

From some members that's the type of contribution they add to the forum daily, hence the announcements about spamming images and gifs.

Well after reading this I certainly don't envy the mods.

Whatever they do they will end up with one big batch of cry babies.

Kizzy 26-04-2014 10:58 PM

Yup, you can please some of the people all of the time, and all off the people....yadda yadda :glorang:

LOL at people saying post counts dont matter and arent a big deal, when the majority of moaning in here (and the main point of the thread) has been about...post counts :D

For the record I wouldnt care at all if post counts were disabled in the mod chat thread/infractions section or whatever. I think the only reason some people are taking this so seriously is because its another reason to moan.

I would support removing post counts all together also. Don't really see the point in them

Also I want my post count to be lower, not higher. Higher shows you have even less of a life :umm2: Please disable them in general chat and SD too james

That's more inspiring than most of the threads on the whole board. :idc:

Shaun 27-04-2014 06:59 AM

I'd have thought the mod chat thread/chat and games 'hypocrisy' 'issue' was pretty obviously down to a logistical coding issue of trying to format one thread in one (hidden) subforum to have the same (no post count) rules as a whole other subforum...

I don't really get why this is an issue and I feel like I've lost brain cells just posting this.
