Stop. Just stop. We don't want people posting crap just for high post counts. Right now, with all the activity, it's hard to point fingers. A lot of people are being super active right now, and that's good. But when all this fuss is over, and the posting calms down to less than 50 new threads a day, it will become very apparent who is trying for a high count, and then we'll start flaming. And by we, I mean anyone and everyone who liked the overall quality of posts a week ago.
P.S. bungie, don't get rid of the count all together, but put it in a place that isn't easy to get to. If people aren't constantly reminded of the count, they'll stop. Hopefully.

I like the post counter, to me it serves no purpose, because you guys know I'm not going to spam, well, at least not on purpose, it's just a nice thing to have. I used to pride myself on having very few posts even though I've been here a long time, since ages ago. Since before the .net passport thing, which is the date the Profile shows, not your actual join date, I think. The content of your posts is what counts, not the number of posts.
