My post count went down

DanG · 09-09-2019, 05:35 PM

My last 5 posts have added zero to my post count. And i went backwards before the those posts.

I hit 3500 posts on the morning of September 8th.

DanG · 09-10-2019, 09:37 AM

Hmm. I have fewer posts this morning than I did last night? I wonder what is going on. And this post didn’t add to my post count.

Sorry DanG you're getting phased out

You are not alone ...

Typically on forums, posts in certain sub forums don't count. Also, if a thread is deleted, and you have posts in that thread, then your posts are gone as well.

This. I feel like I remember reading that off topic posts don't count.

I feel like we're going to need a lesson in quantum mechanics to figure this one out.

It appears so.

Off topic posts don't count. That's a reason why people who post primarily in the politics sub-forum have a ton of rep points in relation to post count. Why not nullify the rep points as well?

This is an automotive forum first and foremost so posting in the actual auto sub-forums has merit.

They changed it in the last year or two after I brought it up.

Rep points are 1.5 in the car section and 1.0 in the off topic.

Posts in forum operations (here) do not add to post count, iirc.

I agree with you. It’s a car forum. Off topic should be worth no rep points...or disabled in off topic completely. But page views is what sells advertising I guess.

And yes, if an argument/flamewar breaks out on a thread that you posted on and the mods delete the thread, all those post counts disappear.

DanG · 09-06-2022, 07:32 PM

LOL. Happened again to me. On September 3rd I had 6,000 posts and today I have 5,981 counting this post.

Made 2 posts today and my post count hasn’t changed. What is going on?
