Zicada! I require assistance!

Post by Vendrin »

Fix my post count. This is not cool. I should be around 7800. I'll take this all the way to lead admin if I have too! :wall:

I don't think anyone wants me to start posting as much as I used too to get my post count back.

On this, I use search a lot on our forums to keep track of a huge number of things for mods and such. Does our current post count indicate that threads are deleted, or achived, or what?

Because of all this nonsense, you points will subtract instead, from this day on
"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully." -- Richard Dawkins

lol

The counters are reset. It's not because alot of old stuff is gone, it has been for a long time,- the counters just never updated. As part of upgrading versions, a recount was done. I can look into picking the old data out of a backup.

Keep it how it is. No point wasting time onthat when you could be doing more important things. Even better, remove post counts altogether.

If the fix takes more than 5 minutes, I'd say drop it. Another quick fix is to hide postcounts all together.
