View Full Version : post count John Connellan 01-12-07, 05:47 PM I've just noticed that if I post in the cesspool, it is not added to my post count! Is this a glitch in the system or is it supposed to be this way (as they don't really count as posts)? Does it happen in any other subforum? Like this one (I'll find out in about 10 seconds)!!! John Connellan 01-12-07, 05:48 PM OK, not this one :) spidergoat 01-12-07, 05:48 PM Supposed to be that way. John Connellan 01-12-07, 05:58 PM I also think that when a thread is moved to the cesspool, all posts that were in that thread are removed from your count. Would that be right as well? Absane 01-12-07, 06:06 PM You are correct on both accounts. tablariddim 01-12-07, 06:12 PM Does that mean he wins a stuffed tiger? John Connellan 01-12-07, 06:20 PM Yay! :D outlandish 01-12-07, 06:28 PM cesspool is to posts what the bermuda triangle is to ships. invert_nexus 01-12-07, 09:07 PM That's right, Bob. §outh§tar 01-12-07, 11:31 PM How many post whores can YOU spot here? ;) spuriousmonkey 01-13-07, 12:01 AM You used to be able to see your entire postcount (including cesspool) when you used to use the option 'find all posts'. I just tried, but it stops at 10,000 :( Athelwulf 01-13-07, 12:11 AM The Cesspool is the place where SciForums's unintelligent blather goes. So it makes sense that it shouldn't count in your post count, which is meant to show how many posts you've made to the intelligent community. At least, that's how I think about it. redarmy11 01-13-07, 03:04 AM Whereas I believe that the vast majority of deluded nonsense is spouted in the other forums, and that the Cesspool is where the sane seek temporary haven from drooling, bug-eyed lunatics. But to each his own, I suppose. spuriousmonkey 01-13-07, 05:59 AM I don't understand why many people give up on a thread the second it lands in the cesspool. As if there is some kind of honour code posting on an internet forum. 11th commandment One may not post in the cesspool!!! But you can my friends. Hence it is good. redarmy11 01-13-07, 06:01 AM I particularly like posting in Cesspool threads that no-one has posted in for at least 5 years. spuriousmonkey 01-13-07, 06:03 AM I particularly like posting in Cesspool threads that no-one has posted in for at least 5 years. I know what you mean. Back then cesspool threads still had quality! John Connellan 01-14-07, 09:44 AM I just tried, but it stops at 10,000 :( Oooh, if that's not bragging, I don't know what is ;) :D invert_nexus 01-14-07, 10:33 AM You mean you can't search your post history past 10,000? That's sad. Nobody can go back to search your very first post now... |
