    edit: It decreases you postcount if you move it to another forum that has postcount == all right, I doubt it takes up too much resources.

    I think thats a bit different then just turning of the option tho... can you imagine if they did that in AH, and the amount of checks it would have to do and postcount--; ?

    Im probably wrong tho. Its probably no harm at all!

    It does not mean your penis is any smaller, not something really to worry about. Remember its the quality of the post which really counts. I do choose to ignore that most of the time. I don't even know what my actual postcount is anyway it's been altered so many times :(

    I did glance a my post count earlier and thought last time i looked it was higher but I don't pay a super amount of attention to it so I can't be sure. Interesting!

    whats your thoughts on turning off postcount?
    It seems a bit pointless for normal users to need to see.

    edit: Almost 5k posts, jesus if only the boss knew ;)

    I seem to have lost about 100 - 200, maybe ? I only know becasue my posts per day dropped to 2.88. I was working on getting that number up :o

    Must be somewhere I post often then ... No idea where to even start guessing ?

    /checking. Don't know why, I haven't got a scooby doo what it was though.


    Maybe CuLT removed the post count from the 'bitch about a user' mod sub-forum. That would account for Hagar being so badly hit.


    On another note, feedback should be postcount -1, just for a larf.

    I'm guessing it is Feeback or the Reported Posts Forum.
    I post a lot in those forums and have dropped a few hundred, was nearly at 22,000 (I think)

    I have no idea how many posts I have, even though it is displayed beside every single post I've ever made. In fact I don't even know if I've ever posted, or even what my username is.

    That's how much I don't care that some posts might be missing from my count!

    There are a lot of words in this thread, so rather than read through to see if anyone actually posted the solution, I will :)

    Postcount has been disabled on several forums over the last year (most notably the Reported Posts forum, and yesterday Soccer Access Requests). This just would have prevented posts from going up thereafter in those forums.

    I regenerated postcounts boardswide yesterday, this is a task that is not run very often. As a result, it has rolled all these changes into one, causing some significant drops.

    I feel sorry for those who posted celebratory 10000 posts threads and who now have less than that.


    But really I don't feel sorry for them!

    Hmmm... I've never posted in Soccer Access Requests and I'm guessing I've very few (if any) posts in the Reported Posts forum.

    I guess that means that my postcount was this small all along. :(
