When you think of it.. It just leads to spamming (ventus ect) and even botting (jcs ect) just to get a high post count.. It's a forum. Not a spam paradise.

Yup.
People should respect you because of the quality of your posts, not your post count. |

And if you're on the forum just posting randomly to get a higher "post count" you simply need to go outside.

Legit forumers would leave too. They like their post count, even if they don't brag about it.

I'm with you entirely on that one Jonno. I've never understood the people who believe their post count matters when it's likely that person may have not posted anything decent.
'Tis just like where some people rack up thousands in number counting on the forum games sub-section. All of those from posting numbers being useless posts.
If it's decent/well structured responses though I'd understand it more. |

Personally, I didn't read any of those comments on this thread.

| Bidden, some of the people here are legit forumers and they don't care about the post count. So I don't get where your idea of legit forumers quitting comes in unless you mean the few with a high count with a lot of meaningful posts. |

"There should be a "like" system instead of the post count. Of course, there would be bots, but that would both:
1. be possible on other forums. 2. smell fishy when an account only likes content of a certain person.
"Legit forumers would leave too. They like their post count, even if they don't brag about it."
You really think a real forumer would do that? Like, leave just because their amount of posts is not counted anymore?"
I think that is a decent idea, but it would lead to the same thing.

I can almost guarantee over 50% of forum posts have less than 3 words in them.

But it usually gives an idea of how much they forum and if they can be trusted If it's over 20,000 though, the guy's probably a spammer

Yes, right. Someone told me that I'm a noob, since I have 2k+ and he has 10k+ ... That's annoying. |

About thinking post count is about contribution..
How would you know they didn't spam? Or bot?

Yeah, but if you know who's a bot or spammer, post count is a pretty nice feature.
