This.

I just checked and it indeeds raises post count.

Things such as "Posting Funny Pictures" or even the name change topics can be used to achieve a high post count.

And the topics there as well.

Other happens to be one of the only sections you can post in that doesn't involve the need of a talent, just leave it be. Not to mention how little changing a name can be taken advantage of, heck I could go criticize a tonne of sprites a lot faster then changing my name. Also you have to have something useful to say in the funny pictures section to get away with it, even after that factor you have to keep in mind that the topic is barely active and you can't double post.

Anyways no one gives a s*** about post count so who really cares

Seeing as how post count doesn't count for anything, why does it matter?

I don't even see why you'd bother to prevent post count from rising in any section
It should rise in every section so I can gauge exactly how much of my life I'm wasting here

This exactly.

It's not a spam section, and it doesn't get flooded like the SSF2 section, that's why. I'm not going to change it
