Why not just not include posts in GD at all in the total? GD is for all the trash talk and general crapping around about news, history etc.

Liberal would be butthurt of course as 81% of his contributions are there! :smug:

Maybe just keep GD posts in the stats so you can still find the GD whores and they won't have an inflated post count?

I've got a better idea. Every post in GD should be counted as -1 :M

My postcount is negative. Your argument is invalid.
What? How the fuck did that happen? Pretty sure DU said post count can't be negative, Defjam's was supposed to be -4000something after he lost his betting on Plane Tickets Bitch 2009.

To demonstrate the unimportance of how many posts you make on the 'Dex i propose that all postcounts come with "0." attached meaning nobody will ever make 1 post because 0.XXXXX is always smaller than 1.
0. with an infinite amount of 9's after it is in fact exactly equal to 1. lrn2math.

The consequence of your proposal will be that every codexer will try as hard as he can to have one post, and consider it the highest of all honours.

A post count trading centre where people can sell their post counts for custom titles and avatars, or also buy post counts from DU with real money which they can then use to trade.

Deep down in your heart you know that is wrong. But being a heartless mathematic professor you simply don't care about the feelings of others.

The real reason is that Mathematicians are all occult cultists at the heart, ONE is the UNITY, the conceptualization of G-D, from which ALL emanates, and reality, that's a mere reflection of such SPLENDOR, will never reach the perfection of G-D otherwise it would become G-D Himself,only Luciferians would pursue such inane desire.
So one always will be an infinite approximation of NINES.

Religious/Academic word taught singularity is contradicted as evil lies by the simple math of the Cube's Opposite Corners - the most perfect symmetry within the Universe. Academic SINGULARITY is a contradiction to the opposite sexes, the opposite hemispheres and to the universe of opposites that exist as a zero value existence. The academic taught singularity/entity is but poison fed the human populace - slow death. I can say that educators "eat shit" and they only cower and hide, doing nothing that will induce debate, that will indict them as evil. Americans will die SINGULARITY stupid, their brain lobotomized by EVIL educators.

I myself am willing to be the first prototype of that system. :smug: DU what you have to DU.

So you propose an Oblivion type system, where levelling up is pointless.

The obvious problem here is that everyone is spoilt by too much information in the left hand column.

I believe I have now resolved that problem.

:x

That said, my number adds up to 8.

1+1=2+9=11+8=19+7=26 (2+6)= 8

So in numerological terms, I have a lucky Codex number!

Nossir. UserID bias is arguably worse than join date.

Oh, and I don't know if this is easy to do with phpBB or not, but you should theme out the names in quotes. And edits.

Actually, this is nice and compact. Can you just maybe take out sigs and put the buttons / post info in one container?
