Question Did I lose some of my posts?

Just curious... I had been keeping an eye on my post count waiting for the day I lose my "newbie" status, and it appears that I lost somewhere between 20 and 30 posts in the past couple of days... Is this a side-effect of some of the reorganization of posts with the new categories added in the past couple of days?

Well that would make it a fishing pole thread!

Oh you are a real commodeian you are (intentional misspelling). Since it has been a while (last year sometime) I am going to repost it and see what the results are and get folks talking fishing.

I am not that worried about it I was one of those lobbying for the post count to just be "real" posts and not the ones here than are just to run post count up. I also was hoping someone would open some areas for stuff like guns and fishing just like what happened. Sure this area is fun and all but someone with 2000 posts in word association does not impress me. I lost half or more of my count and realy could care less. I just want to make sure if we are moving threads to places where they belong so posts can be counted everyone gets the proper credit.

BTW can we take and remove numbers for the number of posts in some threads for instance that recent debauchery and delving into the more "happy" side of manhood?

Man, I lost a good 20% of my posts! I worked hard to type up all those random, pointless posts in the Anything & Everything forum.

At least I didn't get demoted to newbie status!

I didn't even notice my lost posts until I saw this thread, I like it though, and I also like the new forums, although it will take some getting used to from my normal browsing routine.

[EDIT]- I only hope this change doesn't direct the post-count padders into the actual Jeep/tech forums to get their posts to count.

I dont understand why everyone has their panties in a twist over this. This is not the first or only forum where posts in the off-topic forum do not count.

I know of 3 other jeeps sites off the top of my head that do the same thing.

And if all the other Jeep forums jumped off a cliff.............

I really don't think there are many bunched panty's over the change, some surprise, but little real bunching.

My life was not measured by my post count, my manhood, maybe, but not my life.. Besides, I like the changes, it was worth almost half my post count.
