gi7omy Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 The old board did count reads - this one only counts posts (but then 'Guru' was an automatic status on the old board but not on this one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 It was changed to discourage people from being anal-retentive and obsessive about post counts, and cutting-and-pasting repetitive off-topic drivel all over the forums in an attempt to change what the obsessed saw as their 'rank' or 'status'.
