The "post count" is no longer being displayed next to user avatars. This has been debated around here for a while and we decided it was more trouble than it was worth. Even though it had no real purpose, many people thought there was a secret rank or reward they could earn if they posted enough so it just resulted in a lot of spam and worthless posts. It's gone forever.

Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

In my opinion, they encouraged post whoring but thats my opinion. Some people care about their post counts too much and post just for the sake of having their post count go up, or something. Not everyone is like this but there are some. I am sure that is the reason but I can be wrong because...well... Im not sketch ;)

ditto with the positive remarks. if your ego is boosted by the number of posts you have in a certain forum there's a problem. (then again, my ego is boosted by the number off kills I have...

Well, kills are satisfying, and take some order of skill and endeavour. Posts...well, there are different kinds of those.

I don't think it was that bad, but it was for the better. It really wasn't the best looking thing any ways.
