So maybe you're mad that you just about had an avatar but you gotta get there again? Maybe that's it but you just don't know it.

yea thats a reason, but I still want to know why only the people who said "no its a bad idea" were the people who already had avatar/title..and why they think its a bad idea

Josef Stalin · #33 01-09-2002, 10:29 AM

Maybe because we think it won't work?

I think I know why, I have an avatar and a title and I wouldn't like to see other people just get one just like that. It took me awhile to get mine, not that I care alot about mine it's just nice to have one when alot of other people don't.

No it's not even close to that, I'm special because I own everyone

I just don't want to see people get an avatar and title for free when people like me waiting along time to get one and worked our posts up to get one. Like I said myself I really don't care about mine all that much but alot of other people with 1000+ posts will agree with me. We worked for ours, you will too.

no, you can think something won't work but still agree with it
like if I said "do you want it where you can drink soda and get $100 for every soda" you wouldn't think it would work, but you would agree that that would be cool.

In the beginning, people still spammed.

HEY, NO, LISTEN.

I DON'T THINK THAT IT WILL WORK, SO I DO NOT LIKE THE IDEA.
OKAY!
DON'T TELL ME THAT I CAN'T THINK THAT>

>:[

BACK TO THE 'REASON' with more detail./

Taking away that avatar and title post-limit won't stop the post-superiority beliefs. People with more posts usually believe that they are a little better at using the forums than the 'new' (or slow posters) to the forum. Those 'new' (or slow posters) will most likely be discriminated against in some way of "post superiority," and start spamming like crazy to catch up in posts. Whether it be 1,000 needed posts, they will spam for them. No matter what, you won't get rid of it, or reduce it immensly.
