    I mean if the poor guy is so enthralled with his post count and it boosts his ego, leave him be.

    I only pity new boards users who have to read through reams of crap before they decide to disregard certain users posts altogether.

    Cmon' the UBB developers with the ignore option, surely a system call to grep -v $muppet can't be that hard smile.gif

    Have you ever seen me boast about my post count? Even once?
    Have you ever seen me spam anywhere but trolls? Ever?
    Trolls is where the crap goes so your point is about as useless as a fart in the wind.

    That is why you shouldnt be able to delete your own posts.

    I think that's a great handy feature
    Because if you made a topic about a joke about someone, if it back fire's, you can just delete it smile.gif

    Well getting rid of the post count would probally get rid of most of the spam.(or maybe just hiding it till people have been members for over 2 years or something? Then people like hobbes would be able to keep theirs smile.gif )

    I asked them to remove post counts, that way we can have fun and mess in trolls and people wont notice .

    It was locked because it was discussed by the admins and we thought it might be straining the machine. We've had UBB fall over because of super long threads (any one remember Blades attempt to get the longest thread?) before.

    It wasnt planned to stop it before 1000, but thats the way it happened.
