If we didn't count Mallory's or GenDis, I would have way less than 1K posts. :(

I said nothing about not counting Gen Dis (General Discussion, sinTempter). At least most of those posts have some substance to them...
...except possibly for some of sarge's... ;)

...kidding, kidding about mallory's...

The games I play in Mallory's have substance to them. Well, at least some of them do. (Haiku game, sentence game, etc.) Many of the games in Mallory's require much creativity and thought, and are enjoyable to read.

mmm...
that could be.
I spent a very short time in Mallory's, among the ABC's and "guess the next" games before I determined it was not for me. I know I enjoyed Mad Hatter while it lasted, although that was played in Gravin Threndor and seemed to not catch on in Mallory's once moved. So, some games probably have substance.

But, I think the ones that tend to be used to hike post counts most likely don't.

Just my own biased opinion though.

From what I can gather, there is Servent of the Land, Stonedowner, Woodhelvennin, Ramen, Elohim, Giantfriend, Haruchai.

That's as far as I can see - it looks like most are customised after a certain point.

You can customize after five posts.
