Either some threads got deleted, or moved to a forum that doesn't count posts.
*shrugs* Posts aren't that important.

no prob, you guys jus worry too much thats all
Arcanine
January 11th, 2005, 10:17 PM
Ok here is what happened.
Arcanine PC: Steve did some threads or something get deleted? Because lots of members lost lots of posts.
PokePalaceNet: perhaps.. i've recently ran update post counts
Arcanine PC: Oh, so you mean you recounted the post stats?
PokePalaceNet: i guess yeh
Arcanine PC: Ok then that's why everything is lower (because I think all the posts made in a thread before it's moved to a forum without anypost count still counts for the total post count on a member).
So what's going on is threads that were moved to Fun Time and stuff after they were started just got everything recounted.
Lizzie
January 11th, 2005, 10:17 PM
so..will we get our posts back?
Spectrum
January 11th, 2005, 10:17 PM
No threads have been deleted. I know I sure as hell have never made 234 posts in any thread on PC.
Bleach and Sunshine
January 11th, 2005, 10:18 PM
Then I guess this wil be closed.
Jolty-kun
January 11th, 2005, 10:18 PM
Yeah, it is, i thought andys posts went up too o___o, i thought he had like 6800 o.O

Basically any of your posts throughout your time at PC that were deleted still remained on your post count until today. Now, only your true existing posts are shown on your post count ^^
Stripes
January 11th, 2005, 10:19 PM
ha-cha case closed! It all makes sence.
Lizzie
January 11th, 2005, 10:20 PM
so we won't get them back? XD

It's not about the post count it's about the fun your having making the posts. Am I right? XD of course I am.

Chances are that would not happen.Depends on the member.

January 11th, 2005, 10:23 PM
Steve said that all of your posts that have ever been deleted don't count know. Who knew that they ever counted before? I sure as hell know that I didn't have 1600 posts deleted.
Lizzie
January 11th, 2005, 10:23 PM
oh, okay i think i get it >_<

January 11th, 2005, 10:24 PM

and i don't think i ever deleted that many posts of mine
Rukario
January 11th, 2005, 10:26 PM
Everybody relax.. we just did a cleanup of old post counters and thread info counters.. your post count now shows your current and true post counts. this was done due to some threads being deleted, moved and so on. it's just routine and PC does it at somewhat regular intervals (or when we feel like it, lol)

January 11th, 2005, 10:26 PM
Ift hey got deleted their posts its for a reason , maybe they where past way back past topics that got pruned or deleted, or maybe the member had somehow a spammy past.

January 11th, 2005, 10:27 PM
I am still losing it at the moment. I am seriously pissed.

Okay guys, here's the members list from 35 minutes ago. I was looking at the postcounts of members. I could swear Abby had about 10,300-something a few days ago.

I think I lost some.Let me check.I didnt lose any.But Kairi lost 80-100 posts.
Arcanine
January 11th, 2005, 10:28 PM
Ok here is how it works.
Lets say 500 posts were made in a thread. And then that thread was moved to Fun Time. Now all the posts after it was moved will not be counted. But all them 500 before still counts to your total post count. When the stats is recounted it it brings that thread to 0.
When Steve recounted the stats today all them threads where dropped to 0.
So that's why all of you lost posts.
And the reason I got a higher post count is because all the post counts changed via the Admin CP was also changed. Some one gave me a lower post count then what I had. So when everything was recounted I came out higher.
