I think that the posts from the old board were lost for some reason. That would explain why I still have most of mine, since I was fairly quiet over there...

It must have subtracted our posts that came over from the old board. These are probably the numbers of our posts actually on this board.

Its really odd that it JUST started happening though. I sense a conspiracy. Someone get to Area 51 and see if they are moving the ships!

We were tidying up the message board before we carry out an upgrade. The number of posts you see beside your name is the number of posts you have made on this message board. All posts from the old board have been subtracted, apart from the few which were imported.
(I will warn you before the upgrade takes place)

The U.N. agrees that all post counts should be restored. Sadly, Sa..Skydog has refused and has kicked out the inspectors that are looking for all the posts he hid. I really don't see what can be done.

I would start a policy that includes putting anyone who bitches about post count in a trauma ward for people with stubbed toes. Those people have something to complain about. After that, set their post count to -1. If they bitch again, remove all hair from their ass crack and have them in a new study I am running on whether or not you would have to wipe with a completely bare ass crack.
