Rob stole your post counts to bolster his poll numbers.

Oops, now I've leaked top secret information. :p

Yikes! I lost 350.

Oh well, that post count is meaningless anyway. I make over 500 posts a month.

The most of anyone, I reckon.

They have a new system that retroactively subtracts any truly stupid or useless posts. My count used to be 52,378.

On Monday Mazda will offer to buy back all your remaining posts since they misrepresented your original post count. :p

Edit: AAAAHHHH, I just lost 50 posts since this morning!

Join the club.
Almost all of my original technical posts from the past year were deleted quite a while ago.
I think we just have an over-zealous moderator doing some house cleaning.

I just lost about 100 in this most recent purge.

Oh oh, Police is about to Tazer someone in the gonads again.


I'm thinking they deleted a bunch of old threads so that's what messed us all up.

Posts don't count in the Gulf Forum, but they're not taken away....

Edit: I just lost 2500!!! Not that it matters, but it's kind of odd. Maybe they are taken away.

Me too... I've lost about 200 or so. Not that I zealously keep track of it or anything, but I remember that last time I looked I had over 600 posts. Considering that 99% of everything I post goes in the lounge, where it doesn't count, it's gonna take a looooong time to get back up there!
