Number of posts below status: HOW???

How can I display the number of posts that I posted below my status? I saw this in a number of people's posts and I think it looks kool (I like this sort of thing!)!!! So, how can I do this?

I saw it under Swamper's post too! It was in one of his Announcement posts...

Well, it was a standard feature....but it was later removed cuz it caused a lot of serperation between the 'high count' users and the low count....
It lacked importance and created problems....

but some people find it cool to put numbers like "682000" posts, so they write it under the 'location' section...

You can still check how many posts you and others have by clicking on the profiles.

exactly why we got rid of it

some ppl thought that ur post count reflected ur knowledge about trance, which is bullshit.

Yeah that tends to happen on almost every forum I've ever been involved in. People assume that just because you don't have a lot of posts, you're an idiot. Or an easy target. Or both.

Regardless, I think it's a good thing that it's not on obvious display....

And if you want to know how many ost some1 has (or yourself) just press this in the bottom of your post.

I dont care about how many posts someone have.. 2000 posts doesn't always equal knowledge!
They can be major spammers!

they got rid of it cuz swamp got sick of the post chasers... people who had nothing to say, but kept replying with stupid comments to countless threads... all it was doing was killing the forums

who cares?
it doesn't matter for me how many posts I have
I can check it in my profile if I want
