Should posts in Off Topic be discounted from statistical discussions?

Posts in the TF already get discounted and the quality of OT is arguably worse. So should these posts be removed, or have an asterisk next to them?

It's an important issue, you must admit

The stats show the board has been infested with poor quality posters, meaning the overall standard is poorer. The only reason the board has a somewhat respectable good post to bad post ratio is because of feasting on easy topics in comfortable conditions.

I vote yes.

Instead of post count, we should have a word count. It would really hammer home how much of our lives we've wasted here.
