it makes me sad to see locked threads, when I see them I have to go to "my happy place" just like the doctor said.
i've been reading those locked threads.. and i think they should be deleted... its pathetic the way you guys post just to get more posts... if your going to chat.. we have the chat room there for you...

3 out or the 4 recent locked threads were started by YOU INAV! That should count as negative posts I think :)
Just figured I would share that before this thread gets locked too.

ya really.
its very conversational in those threads
sure we all do it once in a while but those threads were compleltly conversation
Maybe GAM should take away the post count... then you all won't be greedy punks :P hehe

as, for myself. Only 1 thread was for upping my post count. The rest I replied to, and after every response there was a response to me. So i responded again

do people really care how many posts they have? i think the ranking is fun, but i just post whenever i feel like saying something, not because the number under my rank makes me feel like a swingin richard.
and the locked threads are sometimes funny as hell, and it is sad to see them go, but half the time it is just really pathetic insults that aren't even funny.

yeha who really cares about rank
<i admit i did jsut post a whoo hoo i the 1000 post thread, buts that cause there already was the thread and i was there so it qualified>
but i would ahve no objection to removing a post count
at least a published one
make it like so you can see your post count and no one else can
and get rid of rank totally

And destroy Hapoo's claim to fame?
besides, I think rank is kind of nice to have. It let's you know who's been here for 3 days and is just here to post a deal or advertise "dudechat"

what do we get when we get over 1000 posts? How about when we get over 10,000? What about 100,000?
So who cares about numbers of posts, take me to 0 if you like, I won't cry about it....much.

I think the thread locking is biased
check out the'big 1-0-0-0'
for an example
sure sounds conversational to me

The 1000 post thread was started before rules were made against posts used to drive up post totals.
Thank you for your concern =)
it's better that they lock up the threads rather than locking me up

so it is, in a sense, grandfathered in?
