What happened to my post count?

[Banderas]

Something very screwy just happened.  My browser started acting strange, so I exited Elliquiy and logged back in.  When I did so, my post count dropped from about 104 to 86.

Not a tremendous deal, mind you.  But strange.

Anyone know what caused this, or how to rectify the situation?

[MusicNeverDies]

My own count went down a bit as well. I think those posts were likely from the Doormat thread, which was finished as a new one was started, and moved to games/socializing, where posts don't count. If that is it, it's not a glitch in the system. It's much more likely than an individual browser problem hacking into E and deleting your posts, I think.

[Phobetor]

My post count went down as well. I know it doesn't count when you post on the Games and such but I haven't. *Shrugs* Just FYI, like Banderas said...No real biggie! =)

Yes it is too a biggie, by god! This is the third friggin time I've come close to 3,000 posts, only to have them yanked away by some strange machination of fate. This time, I was only 3 posts away!  >:(

[Mithlomwen]

Yeah mine too!  I was about 30 posts away from 4,000 *cries* 

[Caeli]

This probably happened because I moved the old Doormat thread into Forum Games / Socializing. Any posts that you made in the first Doormat would no longer count towards your post count.

If it matters so much to you guys, though, I can always move it back? :P

[Vekseid]

Yes, it was because Caeli moved the thread. Didn't realize it accounted for that now O_o

Yeah mine too!  I was about 30 posts away from 4,000 *cries*

Well, thank you for your participation in the doormat : )

Try being about 20 posts away from being one of the top 10 posters on E... >.>

[Caeli]

* Caeli has shifty eyes.

I can offer cake, ice cream, or bacon to soothe your post count woes?

[Trieste]

But ... I have a bagel. Mmm, cheese bagel...

[Caeli]

My glass of water is jealous of your cheese bagel.

By all means, leave it where it is!  I'm fine with the meagre drop in my post count. 

I like being an "Orgiest", anyway.

Para, for once, I actually feel your pain!!!! *Uh oh...I don't know if that's so good or not!* I've decided I am NOT going to look at the post count anymore, cause it just keeps disappearing! *Hands Para ALL her 1937 post count cause she doesn't need them anymore! AND that would put him OVER 3000!!!*

Yeah. I stopped participating in Round Numbers and all the other fun post count-related activities a while ago. It's no fun when you keep getting screwed like this.

[Trieste]

Story posts are always usually safe.

[Paradox]

Yeah, but I only pump out one, maybe two story posts a week at the most  :P

It's all good; I just wanted to know what happened. Thank y'all for the explanation.

[Trieste]

I know postcount is serious business, but DON'T DIE 'DOXIE WE LOVE YOU.

[Paradox]

Who said anything about dying!?

[Trieste]

I'm pre-empting.

[consortium11]

Everyone knows if you have a higher post-count you are a more awesome person...

Exactly; why else would the goddesses have such high post-counts?  :P

[Haibane]

Yeah high post counts mean you post more trash are important.

QQ please?

I'd like to have 1000 post for once >[ u.u

[Mithlomwen]

I'm with Desan, I know post counts aren't THAT big of a deal, but I was kind of proud of the fact that I was nearing 4 grand. 

[Autumn Sativus]

I think I lost like a hundred posts here. Not too big of a deal but still kind of sucks.

Maybe the Intro-Archive would be a good place for it? So those who are unapproved or whatever can see the previous happenings?

[Desan]

Saffron wasn't very social with the newbies...until...*looks at the badge* xD

[Trieste]

I think that was the point of putting it in the socializing, although it's likely to get buried anywhere.

[Autumn Sativus]

The newbies (unapproved) can see the socializing? Am I thinking of the wrong socializing area? *Wanders off to look*
*Whistles dumbly and pretends she didn't say anything*

[Bliss]

Yeah high post counts mean you post more trash are important.

Yes. I'm quite certain that my games and administrative activities are entirely garbage. Also, things don't count at ALL when you put them behind a strikethrough quite an important gal!

[consortium11]

There's always an exception that proves the rule...  :P

J/K obviously...

[Desan]

If it's going to be buried, can we at least spare the people from losing something? Intro archives seems the right place to be, seeing how it was created in that board and saves us from QQ'ing about our loss of numbers.

* Sir Desan woots ^^

[Aeval]

*Aeval does the Happy Dance!!! YEAH!!!*

[Mithlomwen]

*joins Aeval in the happy dance*  Thank you to whomever changed it back.  ;D

[Caeli]

Intro Archives is where I would put it if I do decide to move it. :-)

I'll think about it after class. ^^

[Bliss]

Trieste moved it, Cae, so no worries. :)

[Paradox]

There she goes pre-empting again!

[Mithlomwen]

There she goes pre-empting again!

She loves you Para!  *chuckle* 

[MusicNeverDies]

Woo! 300+ posts back in my pocket... *Blinks* I talk to newbies too much. xD

[Marguerite]

Everyone knows if you have a higher post-count you are a more awesome person...

Interesting...
