Would GW be better off if you could hide post counts
Here is what I think:
Other threads have had subjects asking things such as "Does post count matter?" Unfortunately, it does for some. What if the whole thing was just removed from the forums? Would it change the way people think? Would it affect the "newbie and oldbie" opinion?
what i am suggestion is an option for users to have the ability to hide there post count or the post count of others in the hopes that it will limit the spamming and the pressure newbies feel to spam the forums to get a high post count to fit in.
Why can't GW be more focused on other things? People announce their post count when it reaches a certain landmark, (which we are all guilty of at one time or another)
yes. That is a nice thing to celebrate, but I still see no point to it.
it would work like (if it is possible) the same way you can hide signatures and avatars
Feel free to post your opinion
