By the way, there is a guy who made a shitposting application on github, if anyone's interested I can give you the link. The whole thing is automated and can increase your shitpost count to dizzyingly high numbers. You probably just need to log in and let the app make posts for you, using some algorithms which mimic human logic and writing.

Just imagine, you could have 3000 posts in a few days maybe, without any effort! Not even mental effort.

Is it time for a man vs machine series? I challenge that bot in an epic posting battle :p

I think this would be a good idea, maybe it would appease some of the rush elitist.

i think Dolans idea is actually interesting...not having a rank and a number of posts in the profile wouldnt reduce the quantity of posts. but maybe it induces people to participate in discussions they really find interesting. maybe it will reduce the "posting just for the sake of posting" attitude. And the nice old trolling and flaming wont get lost because of that ;) ... regarding the new players, they can always refer to the admins or to the media team if they have any questions.

imo no ranks = nice solution. although i can understand your disapointment if you had like 4k posts and the next day no one would see that anymore :) <3 <3 <3 (true love)

Well, i guess i can support this one.
Admins can give an option in the profile, and if you dont want to have your post count shown to all, remove it, or remove it permanently.
