I suggest that you remove the section entirely or make it so posts there don't increase your post count
it is just a big +1/"gz" factory that should be burned to the ground.

I also think it would be pretty neet if every single post that only contained "gz" or "+1" was deleted from the server, watch all those 100+ a day posters drop to 0 lol.

It doesn't need to be removed. User blogs and General Chat just need a few days where the mods go in and hand out warns/suspensions for spam and it'll be fine. It's hard to keep up with at the moment though. Best you can do is report it and if you see some users doing it a lot, then just save the links and report it.

I avoid the user blogs, no point in me going there really, doesn't matter what I post the response is "GZ" or somebody trying to start a fight lol..
and I know mods have better things to do then to spoon feed a bunch of spamming nooblets, if it such a large problem then I think the rules need to be changed.

i agree with the "don't make posts made there count"
but i don't think it should be removed as a section..some people actually have good stuff to post

null vote

Added a poll

Make it so posts don't go towards post count

Thought this won't happen.

What's the purpose of postcount if it doesn't count all the posts?

Also, I don't think anything can be done about this.
If we think about it, you could just do it on any forum, repeating what someone else has already said or just lowball in the trading forums (or make endless threads with 1 item each, and then bumpbumpbump etc).

Userblogs is just one out of many places people have chosen.

sad something should be done, people are getting 100 posts a day here and not even 10% >.<

yeah but the fact that the userblogs are so overrun with spam mods don't even bother there anymore. And who can blame them, at least everywhere else is spread out.

why do you care?
voted to keep them unchanged...
if you delete user blogs.. the trolls are just gonna go to other forums anyway

because some people are stupid enough to respect a post count, or even trust people who have a high one.
