Where did they go?

Ryat! · 02-22-2008

Last night, and I believe earlier this morning, I was at a post count of 400+.
I think it was around 405?
I logged on an hour or so ago, and it dropped back down to 390-ish.
But this isn't the first time it's happened.

Am I losing my mind or has this happened to anyone else before?

Guess one of the mods is going crazy deleting posts.

When I was Admin, we had someone doing this. It was really troublesome and ridiculous. Several of -my- posts were getting deleted daily.

So hey, I hope they take the issue as seriously as I did at the time.

Well the topic you were posting in might have been moved to the gas chamber where post count doesn't count. So that's the theory I have right now. I doubt you had that many posts deleted in one night.

EDIT: Dammit Goku ... I got caught up at work and couldn't post my reply below. Oh well ... lols

There are no rogue mods. The reason this happens is because there have been some overly spammy threads in the lounge. And since we've introduced the new for The Gas Chamber and it's basically a random forum that's sort of a spam forum we don't count posts. Now if a lounge thread was moved in there and you had posted in it, it is more than likely that's why.

Alright, that makes much more sense.
It just kind of surprised me that I dropped back to a 14.

Ryat, I think thats because more and more topics from MFG Lounge (where you may have posted) are being removed to the Gas Chamber.
It happened to me. I dropped like 100 posts.
