Why don't you get post count for it?

 

Games is because it's essentially, and deliberately so, a spam fest. A good example is that game where the entire object is to, one post at a time, count up to 50 before a mod posts in there, which resets the counter. Posts in that game consist entirely of a single number. And for some reason, that has hundreds of pages.

 

OoC planning is for RPs. The idea is that people will post ideas, suggestions, etc regarding the current RP without bogging down the In-character thread. This again can be spammy or go off on tangents. The IC thread, however, does give post/points.

 

C+O is Clubs and Organizations. The validity of the post content is highly debatable and may also lend too much to potential spam.

 

Pretty much, those areas give incredible potential to rack up massive post and point counts due to the leniency of moderation in such sections, and while points don't REALLY mean anything as a currency, people are often judged based on their post count as a factor in their experience on the forum. But someone who does nothing but post in Games or something could appear to be an experienced 6-star member when in fact, they've done nothing but post "spam" in Games.

I really feel as though posts should count in Clubs and Organizations. I've basically only been posting there since I joined back in 2009.

 

Anyway, I do understand why posts aren't counted in Games and Planning, but I still feel like they should be since you are still posting on the site.
