A member of the board brought to my attention the postcounts that people can rack up in the Party Room alone by posting responses to games that require a one-word answer and no real detail or length like a topic in the Fridge might. They feel that a real post or message to others has real thought and detail in it, and that those thoughts and opinions are what should be represented through the numbers, not the number of times you can make a new message.
Invision does allow the admin staff to disable individual postcounts for specific forums, so it wouldn't be any work at all to disable postcounts from the party room (board wise, the post would count as a new message, but the individual member would not be credited).
This isn't something I'm going to do out of the blue. Do any or most of you agree with this view of a "message" or a "post" and perhaps should the ability to measure creativity be given more preference than the ability to rack up numbers based on games?
I'll leave it to you guys to decide.
