Plenty of people have said it is intimidating being new on TiBB. Why do you think that is.

that's nothing to do with post counts..
people blaming post counts for dividing members

yeah it's nothing to do with the existence of cliques or the fact that the person being targeted isn't a regular. removing post count won't change ANYTHING. cliques and 'regulars' will still remain
a music forum I mostly lurk has a function for members to hide their join dates/post counts and most of the regulars do, but there's still cliquey behaviour
