SpeedCrazy Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 what happened to the post count thing? It used to be all your posts now it is just active ones?

fire_storm Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 It was probably removed to discourage posting to just increase your post count. In the past post count use to be a problem because some members would think the more posts you have the more seniority you gain and it end up causing problems.

I know some people here with a huge amount of posts and a not-so-huge amount of basic sense.

Flibo Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 What's the difference between "all posts" and "active posts"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 It's in your member profile page, but the reason it was removed was most likely because of the previously mentioned reasons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 As was said, post counts still appear in your profile. Ignore the "active posts" wording - all it really means is that it's not counting any posts/threads that get deleted, but if you did happen to have one deleted, you were probably naughty and thus it shouldn't count anyway. But interestingly, the profile and member search aren't matching up: According to my profile: 18856 According to the member list: 14807 That's a big difference. Nothing has changed in regards to post counts that I know of - you still get post credit everywhere other than the Member's Lounge. As for it not appearing in the avatar sidebar, that disappeared when the forums were updated. It could easily be added back, but for whatever reason, they decided to leave it off.
