Turn off the individual post counts for a week - or two - and see what happens.

Intriguing, yes?

Yes.

(Although the idea is for everyone to be first.)

Seriously, I've thought about doing it a time or too. Post counts aren't important to me.

But, they are for other people and that's why I'll leave them there. Should we ever get rid of them though, the posts can be recounted and the numbers restored.

I think you'd have mass hysteria!

I think it would be okay but set everybody to 0, and we'd have to find a new job for Portfolio Boy.

But we'd probably find something else to count and compete over.

On second thought, wipe out all the posts and start over. It would be a very zen experience - life is transient and an illusion, that sort of thing. But then you would really hear the howls. It would be a shame to lose all this thinking, but....

Can I delete myself? In one fell swoop? I'm to lazy to go post by post, it would be interesting to be zero-houred.

Not that I don't think it would be an interesting experiment but after all the other troubles we've had lately I really don't think it would be a good idea. We might wind up alienating a few posters. How about we just keep the board stable for a while before experimenting again?

I'd be in favor or rebooting the count, if only because it's likely the only way I'll ever make the TOP 10. [Wink]

Oh, So? I'm sure I'd pretty easily find some other geeky fanboy ana' compulsive-obsessive trivial list making project.

My wife picks on me because I actually spent time for my Legion web pages counting how many panels each Legionnaire appeared in and how many words they spoke in each issue.... [Big Grin]

Don't you supposed Legionnaires has something better to do than to debate who has a bigger post count? You sound like Ultra Boy and Sun Boy in the showers.

Nope (woohoo! that's one more for the post count!). [Laugh Out Loud] [Razz] [Laugh Out Loud]
