How about total hours instead of post counts?



Posted by: nocode

it does seem like something should be there. i keep finding myself looking for the post count out of habit each time i view a thread.

sounds like a good idea Tweak.

I have something else planned for that "empty" space

marital status?

Hmmm.... wonder what he's gonna put there??

Maybe "Times warned by mod!!"

but that could cause people to just idle with ots in a browser causing their hours to go up.

It would be the same as fighting for more post counts.



I do not know who would do it, but ya never know

I think join date would be most appropriate. Like "Member Since: *join date*".

What I'll be putting there would make itself evident soon ...

And btw, made some little "changes" to the "registered field"



Posted by: nocode

Wow That got changed quick!

p.s. laggy tell me what your gonna put there only me, no one else!

HP! HP! HP! HP!

But then that would make people post whore even more.

The join date is fine.

But when you start doing hours or posts or some other type of rating that requires posting, users abuse these too much.

Posting to achieve a number is not what this forum was created for.

Keep it simple. Reduce the clutter in the forums by avoiding anything that lures people to post more than they should.
