Get rid of the damn post counter under everyone's name. That's probably the motivation for non-stop useless posts and 's all the time. Some people's egos are puffed up easily.

That reason would be so the site could sell advertising by saying "See how often these guys post?"

Exactly. Remove both of these counterproductive items.

Talk about return on investment... a simple 2-minute code change, and ET would be vastly improved.

This is so true and self-evident, that supporting evidence is hardly required. But for those in doubt, just see the "congratulations Nitro" thread under chit-chat.

Lay off Baron brothers, this is a marketing thing and a necessary evil. Do Baron a favor and let these threads die.
