Someone posted in the introduce yourself forum and asked about the ranks.

Someone put "Hi welcome to the site" and that was it, didn't even answer his question.

I ended up posting about the ranks and everything for him to read through though so it's all good.

This applies to 90% of comments on news posts. Gotta get dat MVC badge and increase post count.

Way to vindicate OP.
It's really getting to the point where almost every single reply on this website isn't needed.

Input is a synonym for opinion and OP isn't talking about people leaving opinions.
Someone saying they have a code but aren't going to give it away is the most pointless thing and it isn't an opinion, it's a statement of a state of affairs. These people might as well be posting, 'My mum likes to drive her car sometimes.'

I get that it's the cool thing to do in the Rant section to disagree with OP or try to make OP's point look inconsequential, but he's right. Way too many people comment on things when they don't need to. I would even take it farther than what OP is saying and say that a lot of the comments in the World News forum [not the normal news section] aren't needed.
Of course people feel bad for the victims of a terrorist attack, it's something which doesn't need to be stated, but I expect arguments to be made against that position.

OP is saying something so obviously correct that it's almost completely pointless for me to even say that he is correct.

Completely agree it's all about that post count

Its are own opinion, the thing I hate is just worry about yourself, don't need to create topics telling the rights and wrongs, just ignore it...

You'll always get those kinds of people, you just have to ignore them and move to the next comment.

They're getting the post count up

For real I posted on general gaming saying if anyone wanted to play skate and a ****a really replied saying they had the game but thought it was boring. Like why you commenting if you aint even gonna come thru n play
