Why don't we get rid of post counts. That way no one will be mad when you prune, and people could have a lot more free time! I mean what is the point of having the counts if there is not a contest or anything? Doggonit, some times I am just brilliant!!

My thread wasn't about my ego re: post counts. I had thought that the admins, as a joke or to put me in my place, had changed it. In fact, it was a server glitch, according to Paul, and my posts have been preserved and you can see the actual count under "search".

I've been good and not been whining about it for a while, I think. If you think I have been whining about it aside from that thread, please tell me here in this thread.

Plus, b/c of the nature of the beast, you could see your post count when you click on the "search" button underneath one of your posts, where it says "Post 1 of xxx".

Honestly I've never thought about my post counts at all... except when someone brings it to my attention. :P:

I agree with the motion set forth! :P:

Yeah... post counts are fun statistical data, but not if things are going to get competitive over them. :):

You should have seen this place before we removed the post count from the threads. It used to be with the Username and location.

Frisian,

This is what I was referring to:

The admins see this on each post:Christine
Admin Team
Location: USA
Registered: Oct 2001
Posts: 2570The members see this:Christine
Admin Team
Location: USA
Registered: Oct 2001We took that view away a while ago because of all of the turmoil it caused when we pruned the database.

Sorry guys, but we will be leaving the post count on the profiles.

Well I guess that settles it, but I don't see the reason for post counts either. Especially if it's going to cause so much competition that people get upset over it. :confused

I still remember the day Becky hit 10,000 post. She was about 400 away when it came up, then she spent a whole day spamming away to hit it. (old board)


Memories......running from the corners of my mind....

I hope the Beckster is feeling better.


Dan~~~>never cared about the numbers..probably because he never passed a math class
