it's not much to ask for, but could we possibly have a post count under our status, otherwise it's a pain in the arse to keep having to go into the profile.i think i speak for most people when i say that -Charlie ------------------ here at playnow we value our members, therefore, if you're not completely happy with this members posting... call 1800-KissMyAss!

yes, i like to keep a daily check on the number of posts I have made todate. That's why I haven't been posting much lately because going to my profile each time is slowing me down. Also, the number of posts under everyone's names helps me to decide if I'm going to write a sensible reply* or not.*I never write a sensible reply

Why the hell would you even care how many posts you have, you lookin' to beat down on some newbies who have less posts than you or something!?! I think not having the # of posts visible is a great idea, too many people at message boards seem to think more posts = higher status and therefore you get a whole bunch of tossers posting useless crap for the sole purpose of boosting their post count, I don't really think we need to encourage that kind of stupidity!

Ok Charlie fair enough, it is a pain in the bum having to go and click that stupid profile button.I'll initiate the post count feature later on today, just gotta whip up some html first. Good thinking.

I agree with Trough Lolly. If all you're worried about is how many posts you or others have got, then you really are a sad one. I mean how often do you have to look at someone's profile? Do you get some voyeristic pleasure out of it? Think you'll find some earth shattering revelations in there?It just clutters up the page with more unnecessary text and crap, and besides, do you really think we're going to pander to an ODWF reject like you? lol! However, good kinds of stupidity will still be encouraged.*

Don't listen to him Charlie, I'm going over his head on this one. The feature you request will be implemented sometime this afternoon. Hope this helps. ------------------

That is why you whinged to me for months to get your account back, because you didn't want to post there... 
The reason you aren't posting there is because the forum is down. Oh gee... I don't even post there anymore. <sigh> But anyways... I like the post count doobie on the side. Shows me how much work I have avoided in a day Go DJ!!! Where did you get the Monkey Island picture from?

You fools, we don't want the post count on the side. Give us the location. That way we know that Pep's from Melbourne, DJ's from Sydney, unfnk's from Adelaide and General's from Bribane without clicking on the profile button.[This message has been edited by Spoonfan (edited 20-02-2001).]

Doesn't UBB use Perl or something? HTML's no programming language. It's not even technically a mark-up language.

DJ to enable the posts under your name thing you need access to an admin account, mod account wont do it. Go to the control panel and then the General or forum settings. Its in there somewhere

I also think we need a thing under there to state what country we are from. Lately we've had a few Americans slip on in unoticied, we need to monitor these things.Also if its not to much to ask, pics under nicks  ------------------ The Elite Force!!

I'd suggest getting a PS2 and using its BASIC programming utility to hack into the forum and usurp PN Editor's power. ------------------
