Title Rank For Post Count

[/SIZE]

Many a day were I would sit during long hours of work to type up a short thread, response, or whatever came to mind. One of the main attractions to this was that I was awarded a post count title as my posts went up. For example, in the gears of war forums, once reaching 100 posts, you will see a small title under your avatar. We once had a forum user of the GoW reach 10,000 posts. This earned him the well deserved title of (seriously...)

So why have titles?
Titles help increase forum post counts, threads, and replies. Thus giving more feedback to your community. There are plenty of forums that use post count titles, and I would love to see original titles given to your forum users.
For example, once reaching 100 posts, have a title (Prestige Knight) or something like that. Another is upon reaching 10,000 posts, have (Vana'diel Conqueror)

So would this encourage spamming?

Not really. Forum Moderators check for spamming and threads. Other forum sites like gears of war use this also, and there is a strict rule on spamming, same as these forums.

What do you users think? Would this be a cool edition to the forums? A small edition yes, but awesome none the less.

I get the feeling this would only encourage spam and needless +1 posts that don't contribute anything to the conversation; case in point, this one.

Post count mean nothing at all, at this point better put a +/- button and have a rating about what you post, that would mean way more then the total post you did. But i doubt SE would do this option also, because is too easy to discredit opinion from someone by only clicking on a +/- without any argument. If SE did this forum it was to know general opinion and not only how about people like you or not.

I think this is a silly idea. We don't need rank titles and we don't need post karma.
