You are not your (possibly intentionally) misspelt username.

You are not.

I don't think it's intentionally misspelled unfortunately..

"postcount ++"++

for ( int i = 0; i < Victor_Postcount; i++ ) ++User_Postcount;

Or

Postcount+=100000000

That should do it.

Gotta love curley brackets:D

for ( int i = 0; i < Victor_Postcount; i++ ) { 
++User_Postcount;
}

AlmightyCushion · 02-08-2008 01:22AM

That's some terribly inefficient coding lads. All you're doing is making your postcount equal to victors. No need for the loop just.

User_postcount = Victor_postcount;

Sorted.

10 print "Postcount +1"
20 print "I am a programming genius (for a lawyer)"
30 Goto 10

for each ((sh[SIZE="2"]it[/SIZE]epost) in user.overheal.post)
     with user
         .postcount = .postcount - 7
         .rep = .rep - 100
         .karma = sys.****.ed
         .friends= 0
         .<3 = <3*24
     end with
end for

Mirror my for statement was legal without them curlies - its perfectly acceptable in a one line if/for/while

Steve thats just mean.

I got given out to for trying to help someone with a low post count recently. Get rid of it and let people look after themselves!

Ah but without the postcount visible, we'd never find root out the people who are sad enough to give out to someone for helping someone with a low postcount.

@all you lot debating programming efficiency and the correctness of one line code blocks, stop nerding it up. And that's from someone with Java in their username.

On my site we took away post count and the join date. All hell broke loose. If it ain't broke don't tinker with it

Therefore your post is meaningless and the opposite is true here...?

/massages e-p, 'soon, my little friend....., not yet.....,soon'

I mentioned it in relation to my forums and I believe it to be true. Trust me if you remved peoples sign up dates there would be mayhem. Mainly by the 1998/99 00's and 01/2's

Correct. I am dyslexic and even though I was reading the name off an LP by Jon the Dentist (Old skool tecnho/hard house guru) called Phoenix Rising (Now named Phoenix Uprising) I still got it wrong

I think it works fine tbh. People only posting for postcount will surely get bored after a few months and stop. There isn't really a target goal as such. Then they stop unless it becomes some unhealthy obsession. Meh.

Time to do away with postcount?
