Suggestions for the database system and message counters.

So, you'll remove the posts in the Mafia section, and then what? The next section to be filled with pointless posts will be the one about the 6th game, where there will be a ton of posts about how cute the units in the game are. Is it informative? No. Is it useful? No. Are the posts in the Mafia section any worse? No. Oh yes, of course, it also applies to the heroes. In my opinion, it's a stretch. You could just as easily apply this to, for example, Neverwinter.

All of this is just pointless arguing. It doesn't lead anywhere. In every section, there are always heroes, and sometimes anti-heroes. And it's them who determine the atmosphere on the forum.

Authority? Oh, nonsense. It depends very little on the counter. Unless it's for someone who has just joined the forum. And even then, moderators have much more authority, or at least they should. As an example of knowledge, reason, culture, etc.
