Title: Post Count?
Post by: dbaldock on May 15, 2008, 01:42:37 PM
This is my 8th post on the "new" RenFest Forums, but my post count shows either 2 or 3.

What's up with that?


Take Care,
David Baldock

They copied the forums from http://forums.renfaires.com to http://www.renaissancefestival.com/forums that's why some posts were lost.

While there are a great many who love to watch their post counts, there are others who don't.

Dont feel bad.  serval of us lost YEARS of post counts when the other server was served for lunch..

I think I see what's going on here.  We joined the original board and everyone left.  We logged off the new site and when we came back, everyone was gone again.


Its high school all over again. :'(

There are several areas of the forums where your post count does not increase, to keep people fro "stuffing" their numbers with posts that have no content.

I always like the post count....  Made me feel I was contributing....

But the Total time logged in thats listed here at the top..............Now that's just embarrassing............

I would love to be able to turn that off.

The "time logged in" is a bit out of whack. I've been away for several days and logged back in last night. After one hour I noticed it said 20 hours. I logged out a bit later and relogged in this morning. It now says 23 hours.

I think its a cumulatative count over all.... not just current time.

Still, 20 hours is a long time to be on the boards, unless you accidentally left your server open for a whole day or something.  Especially considering we've been here for only about 2 weeks or less.  I've been here since the new site got put up visiting regularly every day and my time is just short of 2 hours, so it seems like Anna's might be a little crazy. 

I too am a little sad about the loss of all the posts back at the old site.  It was just cool to see my count up in the 1200s.   :D

I do tend to stay logged in throughout the day if I'm running in and out. That would explain it.

I wish it could give me my current logged in time though. Might keep me on track a bit better.

I'm at 19 hrs.... ;D
But I also tend to log in and stick around a while (and forget) when I'm at work.
