And for some stupid reason its working now???? oh well... not like it changes my life really.

Maybe lounge posts dont count?

 

I don't believe lounge points do count.

 

some sections (such as the lounge and most of its breathern) do not count towards your post count.

 

"I see..." said the blind man.
Thanks.

 

I wonder why it is like that?

 

^ Because they are irrelevant to the forum's main topic (RX7's) and post count is there to show your contributions to the forum.

Mods correct me if I'm wrong.

 

That is correct.

Also there are some sections (such as the lounge) that may get a single member posting 50 posts a day, and none of them have anything to do with anything.

Since many people (wrongly) associate a large post count with either a large E ***** or someone that actually has contributed to the forum, it makes no sense to reward them for just making a bunch of useless posts in a non technical section.

 

Sometimes people delete threads so your posts go with that.

 

nice to know all this ... thought lounge posts still counted thanks for the information

 

i was going to ask the same question. thanks

 

We actually need to review this and change the regional sections to NOT count towards it. We have members with 6K+ posts and all they do is spam in the regional sections. Mainly the damned SoCal tards.

 

So if i don't have a rotary yet, and want to ask people questions through pm but it requires me to have a post count of 3 or higher but i feel like there's nothing i can contribute toe the "technical" or "new members" forums how am i suppose to up my post count w/o posting useless crap so i can ask people questions on PM or inquire about parts and tuning and such?

 

Not all sections count.

 

I think not all posts will count because they have to be approved. That would be my best guess. Hope everything works out for ya!

 

sucks bro sorry .. i would get pissed if that many werent showing up
