ugh, there goes about half my posts....

This slaughtered all the newer members post counts....makes the whole forum look younger in general as well.

I lost around 1300 I believe but does it really matter?

the only thing I'm worried about is pertinent threads and information being lost...lots of the threads from the inception of this forum provides great information on the history of the car (especially regarding technical matters/DIY info/etc.) and I do search for that information from time to time

I matters to me! I had just made it over the 1000 post count and then they kick me back down. It's like pooring salt in my wounds.

It's said in another thread... most of our posts have been taken out for some odd reason. I lost about 600+ or so... was like 2200+ somewhere. Oh wells.

I think abbid might be right about a sub-forum not counting toward posts anymore

He was numero uno. If I had the most, I think it would be fun to keep it there. :p

I'm looking into it also. This is strange and unintentional. Never seen post counts being subtracted before.
