    I would support a split AND make it so that the Forum Games-forum posts don't count. Then see how many people stop playing these games...

      If we do that... let's do the same with Demo games and see if those games survive... I'll bet there would be a lot less posts

        And I too have a few other forums I'd include in that.

              Hehe, it's a slippery slope.

                  Definitely so, and I believe I've mentioned that about Demo games in the past, too. And then we can see just how much they really appeal to the civers .

                    I say we eliminate post count for everything except the OT. That way people who are tempted to spam to increase their count will do so there, and only people who really want to post on topic will do so in the other forums.

                      Not that many. There are a whole lot of constructive posts in demogames too. Plus a lot of talk through chat and IM that takes up lots of time and has nothing to do with increased post counts.

                          I'm sure you've made nearly 22,000 constructive posts.

                          The last person you want in a DG or FG is someone in it for the post count anyway.

                              Ming has always posted on-topic, no one word or smiley messages, never said anything extra and so on? Oh, he must be such an obedient poster.

                                Ming's made a frivolous post or 2, as have most. However anyone that posts here over a long period posts for fun. Posts naturally follow.

                                The people who post like crazy then disappear when they get the next title are the ones that confuse me.
