Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Maybe move them somewhere where they don't inflate post count and don't spam up good forums?
Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
I think we had a suggestion post like this a while ago...? Maybe...?
Either way, I remember a thing about a forum site I used to be on that might be applicable here. There was a General Chat board there that's much like "the rest": discussion threads, listing threads, threads congratulating people, asking opinions, whatever. The subforum inside it was the forum games section, which were set not to increase post count, or not even to show up in the most recent posts.
It sounds like it'd be an adequate solution for this, yeah? It won't get rid of ALL the threads that seem postcount++ from the main mix (Random Thoughts and things like that would stay in the main forum), but that's fine. The main point is to section off the forum games so that others don't have to sift through them.

I agree. Although I don't mind the postcount++, it isn't the most important thing in life.
So moving it to another place where those who don't care won't be bothered about it seems nice.

Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Can you do that, siteadmin? Can we remove post counts?

Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Easiest thing would be to remove where it displays on the viewtopic and profile template pages, you can't really take it out all together though and there might be a few other places where it would still show up.

Half the battle should be done in theory - for the time being I've frozen all post counts... so everyone should be stuck where they are!raocow wrote:Can you do that, siteadmin? Can we remove post counts?
Soon as I get back into the SQL mood, I'll just reset everyone to zero, and we'll be EVEN!

Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Don't worry. Just do like this: 136 x 5.6470588235294117647058823529412HarmfulGravemind wrote:You know that 768 is my absolutely favorite number ever. I am so jealous right now :(

My personal goal is to make 200 great posts.
Take my postcount, and subtract 1400.
Thats how many good posts i've made

Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Well, my sentiments behind it were more for clearing up "the rest" itself rather than abolishing post counts, but... what can you do, I guess.

Zero.
Because I just joined.
So the rest section is pretty much just a game section?

Re: Hey guys let's move the forum games lol
Games and other random stuff that doesn't fit in the other sections.
But i do prefer it if people check out which topics already exist.

Given the recent... remodeling, I think this thread can be locked, discarded, and sent to the Graveyard.
