how about
 

Chad, how about we just make the water cooler not count for post count? Then the thread nazi over there (Josh) won't keep closing our threads 'cause who the hell cares. :)

but thats how i got to 5000 so quick.

no seriously thats a great idea.

like I said before hide post counts and it goes away fast

it just seems like the water cooler originally was supposed to be for all the off-topic off-beat no-point threads... but lately any thread that doesn't have a point is closed or deleted... just seems to ruin the fun sometimes. I mean, lookin at the forum right now... there's 3 closed threads, and that's just on the first page.

thats not true. i dont post to beat people. i wasnt even aware that i had past 5000 posts. i post just for fun now. if you hid the post count i'd still be a post .

yeah but it stops the I just hit so many posts threads.
There is one thread that is locked because it was an argument waiting to happen

mine was closed. i was just having fun, this IS the water cooler, its for pointless crap. i didnt post it in announcements.

I have to go to work now, but I'll talk about this during my lunch break

how about who cares????

yeah I mean don't get me wrong I don't care THAT much, but it does get kinda annoying when all the pointless-fun posts get closed... just seems like we're getting too trigger happy lately.

Posting meaningless crap is alright once in a while, but it seems as of late every other god **** mother ******* post is "I'm so bored" or "I took a dump today".

I don't give a ****, neither does anyone else, so quit trying to up your post count with ********.

There's a perfect example of something that no one gives a **** about, but people are going to post nonsense just to see the number go from 5000 to 5001.

If I'm in the wrong, then let me know and I won't moderate this forum anymore.

No bro that's NOT what I'm saying; I understand where you're coming from but what I'm saying is let's make water cooler not count for post count and then we can post as much meaningless crap as we want because it's not just raising our post count or affecting anything.

or isnt watercooler for just posting nething???

that's what I always thought, that's why I get frustrated about our "nething posts" getting closed. I understand Josh not wanting to allow people to post meaningless stuff just to up their post count, which is why I'm saying let's just make the watercooler's posts not count.

I mean hell, 90% of my post count has come from this forum alone, so I am very guilty about getting my post counts from meaningless stuff, but if it's going to cause so many problems I'd rather not worry about my posts contributing to the post count.
