Not that it makes a real difference since the posts themselves are going in, but I've noticed the post count doesn't always increment. It kind of surprised me when I went from "Lifer" to "Jabberjaw" so I've bene paying more attention to the post count. I was stuck on 502 for 2 posts, 504 for about 4 posts, and I've been on 507 for 3 now (maybe this will be 4

)
Just curious if anyone else has noticed anything similar.
Edit: Okay, when I posted this I went from 507 to 509.

Anything posted in the Sweatbox doesn't count. Not sure why.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Well, that seems like a reasonable explanation of the "when." :D:

If I remember right, it was decided that Sweatbox should not contribute to ones post count, as it's not really a conversation as in the other forums. We could discuss having that changed.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Why? Is there a post count contest that I wasn't told about? If so, what are the prizes?

No sweat :D: as far as I'm concerned. Things like that just tend to bug me without an explanation. I hadn't seen the pattern, but I saw part of a website that didn't seem to be working right. It's the systems architect side of me. Now I have heard the explanation, I have already let it go. Me, obssessive? Nah!

Well, that did it!!! At my age wishing away a day is not the usual procedure, but, if we get to mid-night I will be relieved.

Me too. The dogs always wake me up at 11 PM.
