Can't find it with a search but why has my post count dropped by 400? Have ordered the 1000 cake, balloons etc - what is going on? It was party time.

Sorry, mate, but cannot see how that answers my question - or from what I can see. Yesterday I had 927 well earned posts gathered over nearly five years - today I have 531!! Bit p***d off, to be honest!
So why?

If the forum has been cleansed that will affect everyones post count. Seems lots of yours were perhaps deleted

Post counts don't really matter, do they?
I mostly reply in non mobile, other manufactures and garbage discussions these days.
Haven't posted in SE forums since long...

Why pissed off? It's quite irrelevant, isn't it?
Sidenote: I thought esato had changed the postcool settings to 'less visible/obvious' years ago precisely to prevent too much focus on it? Must be my memory playing up

its 530 now, you lost another post!
Posted by bavlondon2
I just noticed this happend to a few people actually. One in particular had less than 500 anyway and has now gone to zero. And his avatar has been set to blank.
Why cant the mods answer whats going on?

I got confused yesterday. I reached the 3000 and suddenly it was back to 2000. But this morning they were back.

Did I say I was upset? Basically these things are a part of esato's history..

You've got to love the hands-on interaction of esato moderators
It's good that the members are fully aware of what's going on and that all questions are answered so quickly!
I'm surprised that masseur at least hasn't offered a quick expanation...

Yeah I was wondering where the moderators were in regard to this. Se-nse's moderators are everywhere in comparison to Esato's near non-existent mods.

I am glad you used the word 'usually'
I have been here too long to be personally bothered.

Its becasue there are only 2 of them manning this whole friggin forum. I dont know why they dont just get more mods its ridiculous.
Posted by masseur
Originally, when Esato started, posts in all forums were counted but this made a mockery of the post count as people repeatedly posted garbage just to increase their count
So, the post count was changed to only include mobile related forums.
Lately it was noticed, and also some people complained, that high post counts were being achieved through the market forums with lots of chit chat and bump style posts
So, now the post count has been tuned a little finer to count only one post per member in each market forum thread

As i said elsewhere, Admin tweaking allowable counted posts is quite normal, but members dont half get the hump when their post count drops.

Thanks Masseur for the explanation. Makes sense to me!
