It's a representation of your hard work and effort. Get your rain cloud away from my parade.
In which hard work is defined by posting a few words in comment to something. Or in case of the newcomer threads and forum game threads saying Welcome to AG and *dice roll* respectively. I'm not saying it isn't impressive but I wouldn't call it hard work and I don't understand why it is such a big deal.
Bollocks Daleks, I got most of mine in the WERP/Arts Section. Big long erudite comprehensive non-spam tedious huge paragraphs.
I am primarily speaking for those that jumped up in their post count because of the recent change. Probably if only one section of the forums counted to posts I would want it to be WERP because most people their tend to post longer more thought provoking statements. imao just some posts are worth more than others. For example saying hi to a new member isn't as much work as a well thought out argument or good OP thread that is made but they still count the same.
I'm just wondering, but which posts weren't counted as actual forum posts before said update. Before the update, I only had 650 posts. Now, it spiked to 867.
