Just a thought. Might help make the forums a bit moe lively as theres maybe...10 to 15 regulars out of oer 100k people.

after like so many posts we get a symbol or something by our name. 100 posts 200 500 100 2000 and so on. Just to make forums abit more lively. Or even a title. Like novice poster or...newbie idk something.

My fear with incentivizing posting in the forums is generating spam or a lot of one-word posts from people trying to up their post count to achieve the incentive.

We can look into this more in the future after the Forums have been operating for several months, but for now I would rather not incentivize anything that could lead to any kind of negative behavior from our users, if that makes sense. I mentioned something along these lines before in my post about Achievements.

People should only post if they feel like participating, and for no other reason.

Nope, they're pretty new. The first post is from March 6 of this year, only a couple of months before you joined.
