Post counts

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Just to let people know we've now updated the number of posts people have following a few people asking for their accounts to be deleted - so sorry but people may see their posts have gone down. Afraid not a lot we can do about it without starting to get errors in the database :grump:

    You bunch of cunts :p

    I thought mine had gone down a bit but never mind. One step less away from world domination :(
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Which ones get deleted? Is it ones made in threads by accounts that were deleted?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah, but it also seems to affect some posts made as replies to deleted users. Hopefully it won't be too bad this time, but it's been a while since we ran a counter update so thought I'd warn you.

    Btw - you will be able to see if it has been a problem by now, everything is updated.

    Did He delete his account then?? Why so??
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I already deleted that counting thread - I can still hear Gerbil's (or was it Dr Pirate?) screams at being denied 10,000 posts after making a thread to celebrate it

    :)

    Good, hopefully I'll look a little less sad.

    BTW how do you change your user name and the thing under the user name? I don't want to be a supreme poster it sounds odd.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I'm not sure, maybe it's related to that other forum he has? It's a rip-off of here :p
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    You simply ask for a change - and you suggest an alternative

    I think NMM left because he felt a user was being bullied into having an abortion in the relationships forum.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Thought I hadn't seen him around.

    Tbh I have no idea what my post count is so wouldn't have noticed!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    To be fair the database should register most of NMM's posts - it messed up bigtime last night but hopefully is being repaired as we speak and his posts should remain marked as being posted by 'Guest' - as long as the database rebuilds correctly.

    Thats a shame
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Well to be fair as Shyboy mentioned he left a long time ago this was simply his request to remove his account.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Do people actually keep track of their postcount then?! I couldn't tell you to the nearest thousand what mine was without looking.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    its six thousand miff.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Oh and now the database is fixed you can see NMM's explanation for asking for his account to be changed yourself (it's called to jim & thesite buddies)

    There were quite a few things that pissed him off tbh.
    The abortion thing on alasias thread I think was the final straw.

    Yeah, I know that now, cause I looked when I read this thread! :p

    Before that it could've been anything, I wouldn't have known the difference.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    And to think I had 74,000 posts yesterday!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    i just lost 50 posts!!!!11!!! :crazyeyes :shocking:


    ;)

    No need to get touchy, I only glanced at it the once (can't remember where the link came from) and the forums had the some of the same headings and some of the same sub-headings - it was a joke.

    Must admit, Politics and debate forum has the same name, as does the waste time one.

    Didnt mean to be touchy, but I just dont think its anything like here, havent ripped anything off, dont have the same topics or anything. Just thought you were being mean.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I don't know if I lost any posts as I don't know my original post count. Do people actually pay that much attention to post counts that they would notice a change?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Is anybody that bothered ?

    Ahem.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I was more concerned that people could have lost 1000's - and they tend to get more bothered when that happens, since the numbers lost have been marginal - for everyone but Yerascrote :p no one will be that bothered.
