Okay, racoone, here you go:
My main intention of removing the postcount was, because I claimed people spam to increase the number shown under their avatar, and to increase the number of stars above it.

Your fame and coolness also decreases because you annoy people and they do not like you because of the spam.

Against that, the total forum postcount is an indicator for the overall activity. People do not spam to increase that number. However this number also includes all the spam posts I talked about, but spam is just another kind of activity. If you got a lot of people spamming and spamming, this shows that people are interested in sa-mp in some way (in WHAT way is not relveant here, just that they ARE interested) (2 yep, especially signature spams or server ad spams prove that this mod is popular, even if they suck and should be removed IMO)
So I just took a million as a special number that should be mentioned. If you take away the 90% spam posts it is still 100.000 which still is a great number for a mod community.
I never said "remove all numbers releated to the amount of posts made somewhere", i said "remove the users postcount", and it seems that you cant differentiate between these two. Thanks for wasting my time making me post this, I really got better things to do than arguing with a black-white faced animal.
Edit: Thanks to whoever did it for removing all the useless posts here.
Edit 2: And now that racoone acts as if he never posted here. What a pseudo.
