a system that lets people rate posts of other people might be a better measure to see how good of a poster they are. but rating others down could also lead to abuse (as seen on youtube, or "being carried by a majority doesnt make something right"). that could be prevented by stopping to count negative votes at 0 reputation and you could then get good rep by a few amazing posts or by a larger sum of good posts, which means that both quality and loyalty are rewarded. i voted to remove postcount entirely, but having it next to a real reputation system would do no harm as spammers would then be exposed anyways just by having both numbers next to each other. | ||

"This HAS to be a post sc2 user"->check->95% of the times I'm right. But some of the best users only have a few of posts (MDT anyone?), while some posters made over 1000 since the start of the beta. So about the post count... I don't care. It's unfortunate how accurate what you said is...I've certainly noticed the same thing. Join date is far and away more important than someone's post count. I usually give an extra year to peoples join date due to how often people before 2009 lurked awhile before even creating an account...I know I lurked for about half a year before posting a single time. | ||

Most people who arrive here don't know who Idra or Incontrol are. So for a noob, being able to make the difference between someone who has 36 post and someone who has 11 000 is very important. Removing it would be plain silly. agreed, tho the most important people on TL have special Icons | ||

I'm mostly a lurker and don't feel the need to add my 5 cents. As long as a person has something valid to say, post count does (read: should) not matter. | ||

More On Topic: 1st of all, who made this?!? 2nd of all, keep it as it is! Lets us distinguish veterans from non-veterans easier. I personally think this is because of the biggest spammer on TL.net. HIM. | ||

We need to keep the post count to keep track of how many haikus Trozz has blessed us with. But seriously, I don't see any reason to change this. I definitely see the benefit of displaying join date, too. | ||

Anyway, join dates with post counts would be cool. On a side note, since sc2 beta came out and the influx of new members I can definitely notice the difference in posts. You can tell when a post is made by a post beta member or by an old school BW player. Like I said. | ||
