Having Join date would be nice would take that in place of post count. meeple is a great example of a post spammer... really join date i think is the best way to gauge users

Generally for good reason. Also, I don't see why there's any call to change things. I'm afraid of change D:

post count can be abused, even though the way this forum gets moderated tries to alleviate that.

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.

Sincerely, the join date is more useful to classify people. I see myself looking at join dates all the time. "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.

I don't care either way. As long as I can still look at posting history I'll be happy.

I've had people be nice to me because I had a big post count, and people who start accusing me of posting poorly due to abusing a high post count, so it all sorta balances out and I'm neutral.

It would be horribly hard for newcomers to know who is who and who you should remember etc etc etc without the post count.

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 don't care about the post count.

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.

Posts I like but not totally needed, if the icons are still around I'm happy. When threads are filled with people who don't have a clue I tend to skip to the people with more advanced icons/staff etc.

lol Just realized I'm a bigger spammer than you since I joined last February.

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.

Post count on profile. Your avatar already indicates your seniority in the forums.

I don't think it matters to much how many posts you have. People can usually tell if what you are saying holds water or not.

Is this to reduce spam threads?
like "1000th post!"

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.

I think a join date should be applied to the user banner as well, I usually post with more respect to the older users, unless their posts are garbage and most of them are "LOL" "THAT WAS SWEET" "OMG" or my personal favorite "^" (to agree with the previous poster). 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.
