Because you're a fucking junkie who used to wake up in the morning with some skinny crack whore in your bed and would then stagger over to your computer to make random changes to the forums?

How about we make it random? Every time you post in the Wasteland, there's a 50% chance you'll get credited with a post, a 40% chance nothing will happen and a 10% chance you'll lose a number in your post count?

For all you smart people who want to know your real count though, click on the little profile button below your post. Click the "Find all posts by this user" link and read the bit up the top where it says "Search found 7994 matches" and compare that to your current count. Subtract your post count from the matches found (7994 - 7263) and the result should, at least theoretically, be the number of posts you've made in The Wasteland (731 for Susan).

Hrmm... You get a negative number if you do that little trick for Megatron though. I'm guessing he's posted thousands of posts in forums which have since been deleted (Wasteland Mk I?).

-2717?

Figures. Is there anyway you can reset and keep post-counts at zero? That would be

Well, yeah, but a lot of posts have been pruned, and there's also those forums like Feelings Online that have disappeared (or at least from public view).

EDIT: -1035 whoo

Also for Susan to get such a huge positive number shows how unbelievably hard he's been spamming since NEW MANAGEMENT!

It's the equivalent of cutting your balls off, only online.

There was this one time when we had emoticons that looked like gears.

No. Postcount increment would ruin the concept of declaring someone an asshat! Hiding the postcount would stop this whining, though.

Why does forums exist, though? To whine!

Correction: This particular forum

Final answer: No.

Next person to ask for it gets asshatted.
