Will it decrease the spam ?
If you've been reading this topic it seems like at worst it won't make a difference, but at best it will. Either way, there doesn't seem to be any reason to have post counting if not to encourage people to post more and show how long someone has been around (a feature which my suggestion would preserve).
Will it change things up ? No.
And your point is?
So I don't think removing this feature is a good idea, it's been here since the beginning, I mean comon..
...again with the "it's always been this way" non-argument.
...who cares about post count in this age ?
I don't. It appears that you don't. Why can't it be removed, if it seems the only people who really do care are the spammers?
