Why is there a thread where poeple just "ping" each other? Is there a "ping"ing achievement or something? HELP ME! DX

there's really no reason behind it.

- wow, what an odd pastime....

P.S. nice HA! :)

Some people use it to bring up their post count, which can help towards achievements. Others just like posting for the fun of it/to make friends.

Oh, I see what you mean. That is a good idea to raise the number. Thanks for responding! :P

i thought posts made in the user run games forum didn't count?

- I was fairly sure they didn't, just did a test though and it appears they don't. I know the welcome forum and event forums didn't count but that is new to me. Thanks for pointing it out. :)

[edit]

Nevermind, I was looking at my restocking war score instead of my post count, they definitively count towards total post.

they used to not. wonder why they changed it. o_o
