Interesting how a couple of those known culprits have responded to this thread though. Ignorant halfwits still working on their post count...
On some other forums you are given awards for contribution

E.g if you sponsor players or organize forum activities on bigfooty you're given badges, if you upload some tabs or sheet music on ultimate-guitar you're given brag points or something to that nature, etc.

Maybe here the admins could have some sort of recognition to reward people who post useful guides, tutorials, regular fishing reports or just all-round helpful posts?

I can admit I make a fair few useless posts (mainly trying to generate some humour rather than increasing my post count, because i couldn't give two ***** about that), I think some sort of feature like this would definitely inspire myself and others to post more useful content rather than spamming nonsense.

Just a thought

Is it really a post count thing though??

Seems some people just like posting for the sake of posting.
