I'm simply here to address what I feel is a problem, even if it's not a major one.

Posts in Other Versus do not count towards your post count. While from what I understand the problem back then was that other versus often had very spammish answers and threads, I feel that has mostly been eliminated, and while not all threads receive attention, and not all posts are valuable, the same could be said of any of the sections, including Dragon Ball Versus, Other Versus's closest counterpart.
Not to mention that many threads I feel have had fine contributions, very worthy of increasing the participants post count, a few examples being http://dbzf.co.uk/topic/8578149/1/ and http://dbzf.co.uk/topic/8581832/1/ and of course for more long form essays of posts one need look no further than the many respect threads have been laid down in Other Versus such as the excellent breakdown of Koro-Sensei's skills in http://dbzf.co.uk/topic/8575315/1/ to the more flowery and character driven thread of Gilgamesh here http://dbzf.co.uk/topic/8574464/1/ even within these respect threads that lend themselves to being an OP there has been discussion, such as right here disussing some of the abilities Cinder has and how they would interact with other characters http://dbzf.co.uk/topic/8563437/1/

There are plenty of posts made here that fully deserve to be recognized, and they're a not insubstantial portion of the posts made here either, nor are they looking to slow down any time soon.

I feel plenty of people have made real genuine contributions to their various discussions, and that the respect threads deserve a bit of recognition in regards to acknowledging the person's post, further more if people do begin to spam in such threads, I feel moderating and punishing such behavior would take care of that, especially since the rules are already enforced there.

Well said. If posts in forum games are counted, then Other Versus posts should be too.

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

Posts in forum games are not counted.

But well spoken - I agree, the problems that plagued Other Versus in the past do not seem to plague it today whatsoever. The posting there should count, absolutely.

I think we should at least try to count posts in Other Versus for a while even though I think the section tends to attract trolls a lot. Though I honestly feel like most members on here don't really care about post count to begin with, so the spam and trolling will be lessened quite a bit. I'm for it.

It truly was a Shawshank redemption

I don't see why there can't be a trial period, as long as staff are up for the extra work of making sure the spamming and trolling isn't an issue anymore.

Novacane for the pain

I'd be fine with it, the reason it was disabled in the first place was it was becoming impossible to moderate properly because it was like a warzone in there. So, we took off the post count which means the standards could be relaxed. It's calmed down a lot so I'd be fine with putting it back now if people want it but there will be stricter moderation in there as a result.
