WTF!!!???
I started today off with 738 posts, and all of a sudden I am down to 613 ???
What the Heck is going on ??? I have noticed that every day or so my post count seems to drop a couple of posts, but this large of a drop ??? pretty soon I will have a negative post count number !!!
AGAIN, WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING ???

Yep, they just went through and pruned all the old threads in the trading forum, I lost almost 500 posts....

I had over 400 so that's how many I lost.

BYPC will be the big hangout again.

Isn't there a setting to prevent posts in the FS/T section from counting towards your post count?

But then again people would just freak that their posts in the FS/T section aren't counting towards their post count.

I figured the occasional post count or two drop was due to trading post ads being cleaned up or deleted, but that large of a count drop I am sure I do not post in the trading post that much, I mostly PM when I have an interest in something.

And you probably remember when I was depressed when my 700th post didn't earn a title change.

See, losing just a few hundred or in my case a hundred and twenty something really hurts when you don't have the Mega Millions in posts.

But that can change! You signed up here before I did. It just takes time and getting in with the right "Posting" crew. For me it was Patrick and Spyder. Now all 3 of us are GMKIA, And you're chatting with me now. I'm not a late night poster but we can sure give it a go!! [Beer]

Yes, this is true, but I am not a chatty Kathy as some here are. [LOL]
This is not meant as an insult to anyone, and I am sorry if anyone takes it that way.
And besides, I don't want the title of "I heart DBS Outdoors" under my screen name.

Yeah, I don't get to spent too much of my time on the site actually posting anymore. I mostly just mod the place now. There is so much that goes on here in just one day that I don't even have time for taking care of all of that.

Yep. And those were just so the OP wouldn't have their returned post 2 pages down right from the start.

Yup. It started out as just "Ginsue" - nickname. Then someone (not me) changed it to "The Ginsue" and told me it was no longer a nickname, but a title, like "The President". I rolled with it.

Oh, and thanks for the vote of confidence (I think).

I don't post a huge amount but read a lot on the sight (and still have a LOT to learn). But I do a lot of deals with the whole gang around here so I had lots of posts in the Trading post section (lost about 300). Feel like a noob when I look at my post count now though! [Tooth]
