Forum Games section.

[English]

I believe the forum games section is becoming out of hand "/ It is turning into a 'make up some lame excuse for a game to get your post count up' section. I think the forum games need to either be chosen/moderated better or just post count not count like spam section.
Your thoughts?

I've noticed it getting out of hand for a long time, people (not naming names) have always abused it and treated it purely as a forum to unproductively boost their post count. The only deterrent I can imagine to prevent this, would be to stop post counts rising within this forum all together (I've seen such steps taken on other forums).

Lol posts counts shouldn't count, tis stupid.

Don't mean i don't abuse the fact that they do count then i'm bored though

I agree with you, but it's almost impossible to give people warnings or infractions there, because most posts are only 1 word anyway.

I think post count shouldn't go up there aswell.

Problem is, if post count was disabled there - many people would lose a alot of posts, and they wouldn't be very happy.
I'd say it needs it's own set of strict rules (like trading) and a small group of Moderators who will enforce those rules.

Hmm, you got a point there.
Perhaps only games where you actually have to type something should be allowed, so no 1 word games.

If posts in that forum didn't count, so many people would drop by a couple of hundred posts.

I think the spam games should just be moved to the spam forum were post count doesnt count :p.

Thanks
