Query: Post and Member numbers

[Umbran]

Just curious - I see you folks managed to stop reporting member numbers. Any reason why you're still reporting number of posts?

 

[Morrus]

Neither is a conscious decision. That's just how these boards work.

You can see a person's user number by holding the cursor over their Profile button. The user number will appear in the status bar at the bottom of your browser.

Ahh, elitism, how I've missed you!

Yay! Go elitism! And go my much lower member number! Though be sad for the loss of my ~800 posts, though some had tons more.

Hey thanks PC - I was wondering how we went about doing that

Heh - I lost over 3000 posts but I figure I can hit it again in at least 6 months

 

[graydoom]

Wicht, right now I'm posting as much as I can . I want to get back over 100 at least.

Member number is an inborn quality, much like ability scores (and even harder to change than those).
Post count is an acquired quantity, like XP or perhaps skills; you just pick them up along the way.

Neither says much about a member's "worth..."

 

[The It's Man]

I agree with Shadow Of My Former Self on this one

Looks like I'm Ahead

Just remember the rules - no spamming

 

[Piratecat]

Wicht is right about spamming. Remember, folks, quality not quantity... or we'll just turn off the post count altogether.
