Just voicing my opinion (and poll!)
Poll Question: Do you think OT posts should raise post count as they once did?
I heard about this a while ago, but because I wasn't an active poster on ACS I didn't really say anything about it. I'm sure the decision has been made, and maybe even a poll has already been created for this...well...here goes anyway...
As much as I don't like constant spam, I really don't see it as a big problem, least not as much as it used to be, here at Apolyton. The OT is where some of our most intelligent posters post, some of them are OT only posters, and some deserve a lot of credit for the material that they post. I don't care much about post count, but it is a tradition here at ACS and it helps to give posters and identity. If you really are having a problem with spam because of post count, why not give out more PCRs? Low level of course, to spammers that won't take a hint? Just hit them with a 5% PCR when they get uppity, and they'll realize that it's a waste. I honestly don't think it will be much of a problem though anyway. A lot of the veterans here have had their fun with spamming, and are on to normal intelligent posting. Even once criminal spammers (not naming names) seem to have cooled off since I last remember them.
Well, just the prospective of a returning vet
No bashing of the owners/staff intended.

. I know that you'd better never hear what the staff members all think about this, but the debates are hot.
