Postcounts dropping?

Hagar · 13-07-2008 4:13pm #1

What's happening to the postcounts?
Mine has dropped about 600/700.

I'll just have to go back and repost them I suppose, now which ones were they?

Stark · 13-07-2008 4:16pm

I noticed something similar. Not quite a drop of 600-700 but about 100 of so seem to have disappeared.

Toto Wolfcastle · 13-07-2008 4:16pm

Yup I noticed that this happened to someone else as well.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 13-07-2008 4:18pm

WTF
I lost aboug 60

well fair enough boards, now you're going to have to endure another 10,000 posts thread

Ruu_Old · 13-07-2008 4:19pm

Here too, the other day but thought I was imagining things. Not that I pay much attention to it anymore. >_>

Overheal · 13-07-2008 4:25pm

I feel a great disturbance in the boards, as if millions of posts suddenly cried out in terror.

aidan_walsh · 13-07-2008 4:27pm

I too appear to have lost a few hundred. Not that it matters.

It can't be a crap post pruning, otherwise many of us here would have lost a lot more than we did...

tribulus · 13-07-2008 4:27pm

And Sherifu had worked so hard for them

yeah id probably be down to 2 posts or something...good call.

RoundyMooney · 13-07-2008 5:09pm

How strange.

A forum whose rules have been changed (like the 'dome etc.) maybe, so that those posts don't count anymore?

The_Minister · 13-07-2008 5:14pm

I'm grand anyway.:P

EDIT: Wait a minute, I was over 5000!!! Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

Alanstrainor · 13-07-2008 5:14pm

I noticed that myself actually, i seem to have lost around 60/70 ish...ah well

RoundyMooney · 13-07-2008 5:22pm

I'm surprised people notice such a thing.

I couldn't tell you what mine is, how many thanks I have, or any of that malarky

Including adverts, I can't even tell offhand how many forums I mod (email notifications & subscriptions ftw).

orestes · 13-07-2008 5:25pm

Hmmm, I too appear to have lost some of my e-penis

Circumcision, vBulletin style?

Amz · 13-07-2008 5:34pm

Did a certain forum or something stop contributing towards post count?

I'm down a couple of posts too, not sure how many and to be honest I wouldn't have noticed only for this thread, but meh ... Sunday is a slow day.

Don't think i've lost any. Thanks for caring though.

13-07-2008 5:41pm

So am I.Suspicious.

TerrorFirmer · 13-07-2008 6:10pm

Don't....think..... I'm down. Though I honestly haven't a clue what my count was other then that it was over 14k.

It's weird, I have no idea how many posts I have so don't know if there is any difference in mine, but I did notice someone else's for some reason!

Hagar · 13-07-2008 6:41pm

I only noticed because recently it was my eleventy first birthday ie 11,111 posts.

AlmightyCushion · 13-07-2008 6:43pm

The reported posts forum seems to have had postcount removed.

Off the top of my head...I'd say a year and a few months.
I remember Gordon testing it out.

AlmightyCushion · 13-07-2008 7:23pm

Then it was changed since and changed back. I remember seeing a guy who had a post count of 1 and the only post (that I could see) was a reported post. That was a few months ago. It must have been the upgrade to vb 3.6.8 that did it.

ewww. You could just a Tar.A and spam every forum and watch your postcount.

Tar.Aldarion · 13-07-2008 7:26pm

Every forum in one day...attainable.

Bob the Builder · 13-07-2008 8:08pm

I had 36,742 the last time i checked, and now I only have just over a 1000. absoloutley ridiculous...

MizzLolly · 13-07-2008 10:01pm

I don't really mind Boards. Take away my post count if you like. It's hardly important. I know the majority of them in my case is pure waffle anyways!

:D

Yes,I asked Cult to stop the posts counting on the Soccer Access forum.I did not want to have 100s of my posts just been 'granted'.

This should only effect the Soccer Mods.Do you lot post much on the Soccer forum...?maybe Cult changed the main soccer forum instead of the Subforum.Just a taught.

RoundyMooney · 13-07-2008 10:12pm

No.

I don't have access, and only lurk there, and I think I'm down.

I was near enough to the thousand, be that 7, 8, 9, I dunno (but looking to the left, probably 7k). Someone remarked on it to me t'other day on msn, which is why I recall.

edit: Not that it matters in the least, I'm sure CuLT has bigger bugs to be swatting.

Eh, I seriously doubt that's it. I don't think I've ever posted in that forum more than once or twice, if at all.

It's not the type of forum that would affect so many people's post count so dramatically.

It would if he did it to the main Soccer forum by mistake.

No...

Even if he did it to Sports, it certainly wouldn't affect me to the extent that I would notice.

Gordon · 13-07-2008 10:28pm

Hagar only has 48 posts in Soccer. This is exciting, what can the answer be?! Shall we take bets? I reckon it's a Sys forum cull, maybe Feedback.

Amz · 13-07-2008 10:29pm

Well, I've only a handful of posts in that forum, not the number that my post count appears to have fallen by.

Definitely a cull I reckon. I've posted in all my usual haunts today, and for the first time ever, I'm watching the ticker go up

edit:@Amz: How many do you think you've lost? I'm guessing around four five hundred, or fourteen/fifteen hundred-probably the former going on what others say.

Ooh the excitement!

Zaph · 13-07-2008 10:33pm

I haven't noticed that much of a drop, less than 100 I'd say. I'm sure I probably have more than that in Feedback, and definitely more in Soccer, so I don't think it's either of those.

Pythia · 13-07-2008 10:37pm

I used to have over 4,000.

Anyone know the answer to this?

It's only a couple of hundred, I only really knew approximately how many I had as I was surprised at how quickly I was nearing 12,000 and thought to myself I'd take a wee break when I reached that number.

Well there's your answer-someone doesn't want you to take that break

BuffyBot · 13-07-2008 10:56pm

I can't really tell.
