Welcomes and Birthdays => Post Count
 
So last week or so, my post count randomly jumped by about 230 posts or so. I've been wondering about what has caused this sudden increase or if I'm crazy and have posted 200 and something posts without realizing it in an extremely short amount of time. Well, I proved that I'm not crazy by finding my thousandth post and counted up to my most recent. Definitely no where near 290.

I decided to check if it's the whole Welcomes and Birthdays posts counting; I posted there just now and my post count increased. Ding ding!

Alcar, are you guys counting posts in there now? If not, is this happening to anyone else?

SeaRex 07-16-2006 07:43 PM

NO!

Alcar, what have you done?! We can't have posts count in W&B! Chaos shall ensue! :p

AquaticAmbi 07-16-2006 07:47 PM

Are they counting for you too? Or am I getting "special treatment"?

Two words: WHO CARES? :p

Come on Ambi, get in your game.

Hmm. Let me think. Maybe the admins that don't want it to count? Some button may have been accidentally pushed and it hasn't been noticed yet.

I changed it about a week ago. W&B has proven to be a great addition to the forums, so I don't see why it shouldn't count towards total posts. Members that spam in W&B should be dealt with as in any other forum anyway.

So say thankyou :p

I noticed my postcount skyrocket a week or so ago as well. Wondered what was up with that.

Lord Vulcher 07-16-2006 11:33 PM

Yeah, my post count went higher as well. Firstly I thought it was a glitch with the forum that made my posts multiply by two, but now I know the answer! Good job this thread was made or a lot of people would be a bit confused.

SeaRex 07-17-2006 07:38 AM

Heh. Didn't even noticed that I breeched 3K. Go me.

It does perplex me as to how I have reached over 2,600 posts in just two months.

Havoc 07-17-2006 01:36 PM

Two Months?

To my beliefs, yes.

Alcar...

...Thank you!

Haha, were you waiting for people to notice?

Alcar 07-17-2006 10:50 PM

To be honest, I didn't realise the post count would increase as much as it did :p So no, I didn't think people would notice.

*Checks* Holy crap you're even worse then Cullen XD

Yeah, but before hand I was going at a steady rate wihtout the W&B posts. I'm practically Lord Scrotum now.

Fuzzle Guy 08-11-2006 05:10 AM

Maybe you had a blackout?

Cullen Heath 08-11-2006 10:59 AM

Whoa, weird.

Well, Thanks Alcar.

Nate 08-12-2006 12:59 AM

Eh, I'm not sure that I like this too much. It's almost like since this happened, I'm suddenly noticing what a spamfest W&B is.

Spirrow 08-12-2006 02:44 AM

I also skipped forward ten-fifteen post. So it's not that bad for me,
but I still like to play more fairly

E'l Scrabino 08-12-2006 04:17 PM

I wondered why my post count jumped foward 100 posts...

Meh.

It's always been an area with fewer posting restrictions. It's the closest OWF is ever going to come to having a spam board. But whatever. I really don't give a half-hearted toss as to post counts. (Woo! I have the secend greatest number of posts out of everyone!)

Quoted.

Wil 08-14-2006 09:30 AM

It never, ever has been. It seems like a spontaneous idea, and I don't see it being executed.

Nate 08-14-2006 05:54 PM

My point exactly...
