Off Topic Post Count

by **Ditocoaf** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 10:47 am

[quote= " Iliad "] You want to know what the problem is? People playing mafia and people regularly posting in IK are members of the community. Those forums create a sense of community and people know each other and etc. By doing this you are saying these are not important you should not do this and it detracts from cc. [/quote]
We're not saying that they're not important, we're saying what they happen to be doing isn't important. And I don't think that it detracts from CC, but I don't think it adds anything either.

So what you're saying is that my insanely large postcount is pretty much unassailable by new members?

Game Mustard.

Why not? There's just as much spam in there as there is in IK?
Sure, it's supposed to be about CC, but by its very nature it's unpleasant and derogatory. Let's stop people ratcheting up their post count in there by abusing other members, then claiming that they've demonstrated some knowledge of Risk by doing so.

Note: This will also have the side effect of discouraging spam in FW.

Let's get it done people.

Concise description:
As 0ojakeo0 said in the other thread make IK have its own post count mods etc

Specifics:
give IK and forum games their own post count (under the other one and its own mods (firc,iliad mtg?)

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
IT WILL STOP ALL THE FUCKING ARGUING

firc iliad or mtg as IK mods? :lol:

Concise description:

Post counts suck - all they do is entice spam and trolling - lets just bin them

Specifics:

Show Post counts in "profile" pages - but not on the main forum.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

Less Spam
Less Whinging about IK & FW & MAFIA & ... creating spam.

well maybe not firc but illy and mtg definately

by **nagerous** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 2:24 pm

I agree with this one, if IK and forum games get the chopping block then flame wars must follow...

Otherwise one could accuse the mods of double standards. :wink:

by **cena-rules** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 2:24 pm

Annoyingly I agree with nag again

by **wicked** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 2:40 pm

Merged all post count suggestions/complaints/discussions here.

by **Snorri1234** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 3:26 pm

Right. So we got numerous threads about this since it seems people feel very strongly about this.

To me it seems obvious that this in no way will stop any spam, evidenced by this thread, and will only shift the spammers who do it for the postcount to the other forums. Where they will reply to every thread with something vaguely related to the topic (to avoid getting banned). Does anyone think this is a bit retarded?

by **skaterchild3** on Fri Mar 28, 2008 3:27 pm

Definetley agree.

If you want to be separate from CC, then create a forum or usergroup elsewhere. :wink:

Well, everyone who really cares that much, can go make a separate forum where they can do the same thing, and have their post counts go up. I play Mafia, but do not consider that to be part of CC-- is s another game that I play with the same people. If people want to have their mafia posts counted, they can go to a mafia forum. If they want their politics posts counted, they can go to a politics forum. Even though I love having these things available here, I consider it something extra, added onto Conquer Club.
