Post Count
Why aren't OT posts counted in the Post Count? Doesn't posting there make you as much a member of the Apolyton community as posting on other forums? I think it adds more, because other members get to know you better on these than in Civ 3 general or something like that.

The community forum is where you go to complain about the lack of post count in OT, and in that way increase your post count.

No, this is a serious question. I don't care all that much about my post count. I'm just curious.

Maybe they don't count OT posts because it often devolves into a 'yes it is', 'no it isn't' sort of dialouge. Not that that doesn't happen elsewhere, but OT is a whole other kettle of fish when it comes to arguement.

Or maybe I don't have a clue and the owners just want it that way.

Its to reduce the amount of spam in the OT, and possibly reduce server load from 150 people all saying:

'yes it is', 'no it isn't'

OT is for those, who want to talk about all the things that don't concern the essentials of ACS...

If OT posts would count, the Suomithreadis alone would of got me to Emperor by now.



Bah, if the would count, spamming would be much more looked after in the OT. Which of course wouldn't bother me, as I don't spam!
