Ah, I wasn't referring to you Majin_You. I meant what Hibiki and Phobius were saying about people just going after the staff. I understood what you said and I said I accepted the fact that Sky did not want to do it because he owns it.I fail to see how I was ambiguous in stating that the fact of the matter lies in two possible scenarios:
1) Sky doesn't want to recalculate the post counts because of a matter of opinion related to the old deactivation of off-topic post count incrementation (a matter that I and the other admins can discuss with him).
2) Sky doesn't want to recalculate the post counts because he simply doesn't want to do so. His forum, his choice.
Yes, there are rational arguments for post count recalculation. I'm not sure who you're addressing, Chakra, but I don't see any "conspiracy against the staff"; nor do my cohorts on the senior staff, for that matter. However, what I do not understand about the last handful of posts is that people seem to be forgetting that the last call, unless he says otherwise, goes to Sky; as the forum owner, he isn't obliged to give anyone any reason for his decisions and preferences. If his rationale is unsatisfactory, that's just hard cheese. I, for one, didn't think the forum needed an arcade or a credit system, but I didn't force that opinion onto Sky because I respect that he is allowed to alter the forum he paid for how he likes.
If any of you cannot respect the fact that Sky is the owner and is entitled to privileges in light of that, then I respectfully request that you keep your qualms to yourself and just move on.
What I was addressing was the hostility directed toward Zeonix and other people who were asking questions. Not from you and Sky, but other members who thought changing it would be a waste of time.
