Title: Post counter locked at 201
Post by: foxlive on Tue, 13 March 2018, 07:44:41
Hey!

I have a strange issue, my post counter is blocked at 201 post since 1week approximately.

Anyone has an explanation for this?

Just had a look and all your posts were in IC / GB threads - these don't count.  Nor do posts in Off Topic...

You will notice you now have 202 posts as this section does count :thumb:

I just posted, IC counts. Classified has never counted, same with OT. Maybe it's Vendor forums you're thinking of?

Just posted in a vendor forum, they count again? Huhhhh?

So where we are in regard to post counting is kind of silly. I could understand where posts in off topic didn't count, and even those in new members. But with the change in posts not counting in the classifieds, it's just become silly. Why are we sitting in the middle here? We should either let them count or abolish them altogether.

So I guess this behavior is strange. I mainly post in IC and GB, and for sure they used to count. So does it change, or was it just a bug or an error on the site ^^?

IC and GB do count.  Only marketplace subs that dont count are classifieds, vendor subs, and artisan subs.
