A gil hack sounds cool and every thing but it will become very bad later on. People will just spam the hell out of everything. A thread that normally gets 5-6 posts would get 29 because people would keep talking to get more gil.

That is the way it use to be with post counts but they got rid of them to help reduce that kind of pointless posting. It worked to some extent.

Where as I would like to buy things based on how active I am it just wouldn't work out because

1) These Forums(I refuse to say Fora) are too big and it has too many members

2) There are alot of people out there like Myself, Kawaii, and Drex use to be who got up to and past 3000 posts in 5 months.

3) We are trying to conserve on space here so that the database and what have you doesn't become oversized and adding a bunch of more pictures and variables for 3000 some odd members is just going to take up more space over time. Where as it doesn't seem like alot. Add in 5 lines of code to each post * 100,000 posts = alot of space...I think that works.

Although(like I already said) it would be pretty cool.
