	Suffering from ads?

The amount of spam these useless and meaningless stats have generated s quite stunning...

That's the only thing they've been good for since they were introduced.

Actually, there are some forums on the net, where you can only post on the general public boards untill you get a certain number of posts, and then when you reach that number, the mods supposedly review your post history and decide whether to promote you in ranking or not. And the promotion allows you to access more forums. And then it goes on. The more you post, the more forums you can access. Only you cannot really spam, because the mods actually review your posts before giving you the next rank... Ugh. Needless to say, these forums are all half-empty.

You get D:99 when your average is 5 posts a day

The only thing I still don't completely get is the movement.

We should have somebody make a Civ3 mod with all our stats as unit stats, and then fight to the death.

There is no extra payoff above 5.

Anyway HP show how close you are to the next level, which is A. I think A is logarithmically related to postcount.

As for M IIRC it is some mix of post-count and recent activity......not sure how it works......some older posters with bags of posts and a decent average still have very low M's.

5 posts a day.... pfff, I'd have 13 posts a day!

if they'd count Off-topic threads.
