I'm thinking of making Games & Rounds not count toward posts or activity. What other boards would be good candidates for this? Maybe Off-topic, though some decent discussions occur there, so I'm not sure about that.
When you say activity does that include post count as well? If so, Games and Rounds for sure. I was actually going to suggest we prohibit forum-based giveaways like we did with the alt coin section but this would be better. I would also vote for Off topic. Can't remember the last time I saw a decent discussion taking place in there but even good threads can quickly get swamped and taken over by spammers but this might actually improve discussion since spammers/farmers will hopefully leave it alone.
I don't think that prohibiting forum based giveaways is a good idea. The giveaways are in bitcoins, so this still have his place. Removing the activity points from this section might finally be a good idea. I went there, and what I saw is panicking.
