i dont have a problem with false numbers, its just the fact there are numbers
if the topic was made in the past and it died, it died for a reason. stop filling up the forum with the same topic every few weeks
I don't think there's a chance that people will stop making the same topics again and again, since they're a bit of fun on the short term.
I just don't get why everyone has to put in a silly number/word for each one, as if anyone actually cares that this is the 3rd incarnation of that particular topic.
And it's just particularly annoying when it's so pointless.
There's been a forgetload more "compliment the above user" topics than just 2 over the last 5 years I've been here alone. If the numbers aren't even accurate, and no one can even remember when the first of a type of topic was created, then why the forget even bother to put those spammy little digits at the end? No one's going to come in to the topic and complain that there's an older version, unless that same version is still active (which in some of the above cases it has been).
If there's a decent reason, like the Furry thread, where the original was locked, or in the Games section, where different OP's stop updating, then it's fine. Otherwise it's just annoying and unfunny.
