Re: Gained a Rank!!
This is why post counts should not be shown on forums...

Exactly my thought... Forums with this shown tend to have a great deal of fluff but little meat. Why, we even have threads dedicated to running up your post count. Sheesh.

And while this may seem inherently bad, it is vital to the survival of an online forum. Forums feed on teh post count numbers and so therefore, the more post counts the healthier and stronger the forum. Post padding threads are really started by the forum in an effort to sustain itself. |

/points to Shrapnel Community >> Space Empires: IV & V. See, SE5 is included in this forum. Ergo, when it's released we'll (or at least I'll) still be using this forum. Unofficiality, baby!
