Why isn't Tendulkar an option?

Haha, returned and on top form I see.
And yes, I do appear to have a few thousand more posts. Don't worry, it'll be fine.

Just as pointless IMO. If people want to know them at a glance, they are there. If people dont care then they just ignore whats there. Its not like they are impossible to avoid where they are, just a small line at the bottom left of the entire post.

IIRC you had to start a thread with the word 'pasag' in the title, or something.

Those were the days, imagine I failed to win the bet because of a ban though, which revokes the bet.

What would improve the quality of the forum for n00bs is for members with high post counts not to talk down to n00bs if they start inane threads.
That's where post count becomes an issue. If Johnny B. N00b discovers the site, registers and then starts a topic on who the better batsman out of Ponting, Lara or Tendulkar is, or starts a Murali vs Warne poll, because it's something they're genuinely interested in discussing, all it takes is for a few guys with monsterous post counts to give JBN grief and he's going to think "what a bunch of ****s, not posting there again."
Whereas if said high post members guide them to where it's already been done to death before, and are decent about it, JBN is more encouraged to stick around because the forum seems like a friendly place, and becomes a better poster for it, because he knows better than to just jump in with the first question that pops into his head.
Take the new American member who posted the "noob question" thread. A prime example of how new members with questions, no matter how stupid they may seem, should be treated.
