No. The most you can hope for is that any embarrassing posts you made when you were new will no longer show up on the search.

Post count. Yet another thing we can't have because of some immature members who'd flaunt it :-/

*edit*

Just realize that came out wrong, I'm not directing that at you Sour Lime, I'm just expressing that we can't have post counts because people in general would be like "Your opinion isn't valid here, you only have 64 posts" and of course the members who would spam even more just to get their post count up. I've seen it successful on other forums, but here the general population is less mature. The search feature only shows 1k posts as you've probably figured out, but your actual count is probably much higher.

Though I sometimes wonder what my count is hmmmmm.......

Worse than just flaunting it -- post counts would increase spam as members tried to outdo one another. The unfortunate combination of something that seems like a "score" combined with a website for gamers.

To me, post count doesn't make even the slightest bit of difference in any way whatsoever. It doesn't show how "good" a member you are, how into the games you are, how much you participate in discussions, or even how much time you spend on the site. I have no problem with there being no post counts.

Post counts are just another reminder that I spend too much time on Bnet.

Unfortunately, no. Aside from bragging rights, (inclined for those blokes that actually give a donkey's behind) you are awarded nothing.

I have no problem with there being no post counts.

Yet a great many forums with hundreds of thousands of members somehow don't have to worry about such post fests. If there is nothing to post about, people won't post. If they post randomly, they get banned. That is the way it is supposed to work. It may not matter in any way, but it is nice to see some reward, however insignificant, for being a dedicated member. I know nothing more reassuring than seeing my 6,000 post count on h2s.com, or my 300 posts on neowin.net. Its not about having the most, but about being rewarded for your dedication to the community.

This forum is definitely the most alienating to the members, since they have no connection to the community. There is no reward for being a member other than discussing what you can with other members. There is no seniority here, no nothing. Its just a bunch of faceless guys talking.

A great many forums don't have a member counter that's reached three million.

When you hit over 100,000 users, it doesn't make much difference if it is 300,000 or 3,000,000 members. The only thing you have to say is alot.

IDK that extra 2.7 million does make quite a difference.
