Well, I just wanted to check how many posts I had, but I couldn't see it anywhere in my profile, or on the left side of my posts. So I went to the memberlist and saw that the number of posts for each person is there.

So my suggestion is to have the number of posts on the left side of your own post, like in many forums, or to have at least a search feature in the memberlist, which could be used for many options!

NO. I've seen a lot of forums go bad because people cared way more about the post count than they did about what they actually said. It would lead to cruising the forum to find anything to reply to even if you had nothing to say. Honestly the forums get enough of that as it is.

Yes, though due to content restrictions of this site and user agreement I can't post them as references. Admitably most were the smaller private type forums run by a small group of people with shared intrests, but open to most people joining.

I was about to say this... because what happened is it caused certain people to spam alot to have a rly high post count... I think the area was still there when I was level 225...

They removed it, they believed that it encouraged spam :? Never actually encouraged me but I did find it easier to look to the left to see my post count :D

can also click on memberlist and it says right there how many posts a certain player made. I do think it would be a good idea, however would probably cause players to compete for the most posts, therefore spamming the forum.
