Posters in this sub-forum are respected for the quality of their posts not the quantity. You may be correct that people here contribute posts which are thoughtful and intelligent and rarely digress into the "spam zone". Such efforts help to create a sense of community, although outside the realm of P2P, and therefore, should receive post counts. However; the opposite side of that coin is that these same people could care less about such a trivial matter.
I fear that silly spammers might venture into our private corner simply for the sake of gaining post counts and disrupting the flow of an otherwise productive thread.
You should compare the "gun control" thread here, versus the one in the general forum (funny thing about Canada). Our is calligraphy, theirs is crayons.
I've been thinking about this, to be honest, and if your are right it should stay where it is at (I strongly suspect you are i.e. right)
