Ok, the serious answer (as Fizz mentioned) is that a while ago we had a spate of people trying to out compete each other for post count by posting



one




word




per






post




and





it




got



ANNOYING!!!

so they should have been warned about it and even banned.

why change the system just for the odd few?

Other than my above reason, I have no idea! Was done before I became a mod. But I can live with it, post count comes pretty low in my list of things important to me .

i understand, just weird tho

a counter counts, its not surposed to choose what it counts.

like a speedo on your bike that only works on A roads.

Some were warned bt it made no difference. Some who were accused of being post ***** i spoke to at AR and they made it clear that they didnt actually care about the post count but just posted junk cos they were bored or drunk at the time. Cant really ban people for being bored or drunk can we, lol.

So it was decided to kill post counts for certain sections to see if it'd make a difference. TBH post counts dont really matter very much*



* well sometimes they do but that another discussion that was had in a precious post count thread and i cba to get into that again.
