Post count purging?
 
I've noticed I swear I lost 200 or so posts (count wise at least) and Deathshand...well, he doesnt show the fact he was/is the post count king for nearly all eternity (down to 3k or so now :eyes: )

Did something happen we missed?

GameMaster 11-26-2005 01:58 AM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Yeah, I was in the 11,000 range. Definitley going to need that fixed soon.

Joeiss 11-26-2005 02:28 AM

I wonder what I am at!

Re: Post count purging?
 
I imagine that this is an after effect of the changes we recently made to the data storage. I'll see if we can't find out what happened.

Gm is below 10k.

Oh noes!

Someone may have re-indexed the post counts. That would purge your post count contribution from Nintendose as well as our previous server.

If so I don't believe this action can be undone, not without manually editing everyone's post count.

Dyne 11-26-2005 04:37 AM

Re: Post count purging?
 
If that's true I shouldn't have lost any posts.

Edit: Fancy that.

Well it was either Bond who did it, or it was the system that reindexed automatically.

P.S. Deathshand had way too many posts anyways.

Jonbo298 11-26-2005 01:36 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
He may have but he had to keep the title :p

Hopefully whatever happened gets fixed. Probably was a computer being a little too happy or whatever

Bond 11-26-2005 01:50 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
I'm thinking this was probably my mistake. I do maintenance every other week, updating the search index, rebuilding forum and thread information, etc. One of the options is to update post counts, and I must have accidently done that one. I don't really think it's an extremely huge deal, but if some of you do I supose we could manually adjust your post counts.

All I know is that whoever is responsible for this catastrophe, their actions may one day be forgiven but never forgotten. And remember, a guilty conscience never fades.

And here I thought the days of caring about post counts were over.

Post counts are like a badge of honor showing senority or that you have a lot of free time at your disposal.

I like it better this way, makes it look like I might have somewhat of a life...

And you wonder why you're no longer a mod and no one takes you seriously anymore.

Re: Post count purging?
 
I would really really like Angrist to have 5000 posts again. It was such a nice round post count.

And while you're at it, do ~Vin~s too. From 20 to 5000. :)

He wonders? :confused:

Crash 11-26-2005 04:15 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
I know I was over 5000.... that sucks... NEOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Ginkasa 11-26-2005 04:16 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
*shrugs*

Mostly I'm just posting to see what my count is at... I don't really care, though, so long as there are no priveleges taken away or anything...


/me shrugs and walks away

Krypton 11-26-2005 04:28 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Yeah, I had noticed that happened to GM.

hadn't noticed that it happened to anyone else.

Yeah, it shows up that I have the third-highest post count now.

Xantar 11-26-2005 08:21 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
The funny thing is if I hadn't seen this thread, I wouldn't have known anything had happened to my post count. What is it now anyway?

Edit: Oh. I think I had over four thousand before then. Oh well. Now I have about a third as many posts as Deathshand. :unsure:

Jonbo298 11-26-2005 09:22 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
I guess I should be lucky I only lost 200 or so :p Then again, being closer to 7000 just felt like an accomplishment to push for but not post "spam".

*nudges for my count to get backt o I think it was 6970* ;)

The Germanator 11-26-2005 09:28 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Interesting...I didn't lose a great deal, but I was over 4000 by now...It'll just take me another year or more to get back there.

Swan 11-26-2005 09:46 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Hmm, I was never too intent on my post count once I past a thousand...and I stopped looking at other peoples post count after we got rid of the Rep System.

DarrenMcLeod 11-26-2005 10:39 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
I wonder if I lost any. Meh. I really don't care about my post count.

EDIT: haha, I was at 3K a while back, I think.

Jason1 11-26-2005 10:59 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
I was over 5k, I know that for sure...I think I might have been over 5500. Its not a huge deal though, I guess....


*cries himself to sleep*

The war is still coming, Cuts, and I intend to fight it... by any means necessary.

Professor S 11-27-2005 02:24 AM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Actually the whole "post count purge" is all a part of the Staff's complex and meticulously planned out conspiracy against Gamemaster, which we spend all hours laying out in a cocophany of evil laughter. His Che Gueverra-like power of the people and radical ideas of internet freedom can no longer be tolerated.

First we wipe out the arcade records, now we attack post counts... next: Avatar depixila-Edited by Stonecutter

This is outrageuous!


GM, we shall support you.

Wow.. Mine looks pathetic :(

I was somewhere near 1200, now I'm down to the hundreds again... I've become a Bard again, and lost my gold star...

Vampyr 11-27-2005 11:52 AM

Re: Post count purging?
 
*replies just to see his post count*

edit: I'm good!

Neo 11-27-2005 02:20 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Make your requests here if you want your post count restored.

GameMaster 11-27-2005 03:07 PM

Re: Post count purging?

Set me at 12

The Germanator 11-27-2005 03:20 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Put me at 4200...

Canyarion 11-27-2005 03:26 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Angrist: 5000
~Vin~: 5000

:) Thanks.

Bube 11-27-2005 03:47 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
1162 please. No need to be greedy :p

Swan 11-27-2005 05:39 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
36,000?

Jason1 11-27-2005 05:43 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
Man, now the more that I think about it the more I think I might have been up over 6000. Hell, I dont know. If there is any way of going back and finding out what my post count was please let me know, otherwise just set me anywhere between 5500 and 6000. That should do me.
