    Post Count Question

    I have made many posts,a dozen or more.Why are they not showing up in my post count?I've made roughly 15 posts over five threads,but my post count hangs at two or three.
    Nothing to see here. Keep moving.

    I noticed last night there were a few of you new guys with 0 posts or maybe 1 post showing on your details, but saw several actual posts from you guys in threads. I think it was just a glitch in the system. Hope you get it fixed so you can fully enjoy this site the way it's meant to be.

    I actually PM'd the mods last week. Its been happening to me for over a little more than a week so far. Seems to be no rhythm to it.

    I saw the same thing. When you click on your name, and view the posts from you, the total posts there differs from the post count.

    Recently, due to users cut/copy/pasting greetings to new folks in the Introduce Yourself forum in order to run up their post count, the mods and HF staff decided that posts there should no longer be counted in the user's post count. In one recent instance, a user had copy pasted 36 greetings in 1/2 an hour, in an effort to reach 50 posts. This policy went into effect about 8 days ago.

    Posts in the Introduce Yourself forum will no longer count towards your user post count.

    Could it be that it only counts the different threads not individual posts?

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    I'm sure it's not all that thrilling to be "carpet bombed" with cut and paste "greetings from X". Whoohoo. Gee thanks.

    For those who may be curious, it wasn't Ewker. He is always incredibly polite.
