My post count has decreased

by Anup Mahajan
10 replies
Just now noticed that my post count has decreased by about 10.

When I posted my last message in the old forum the count was 211.

Now it is at 203 after I posted 3-4 messages in the new one. I guess last 10 or so posts were not migrated..

Anyone else facing similar problem?

Cheers,
Anup

    Here's my guess as to why. It takes time to migrate data from one database to the other. I suspect that was the correct count at the moment the data was transferred, but you've since put in 10 more. You only became aware of the count when the forum opened.

      mine about 10%.

      Possibly there were pending posts that didn´t count?

      Naah, doesn´t matter anyways. Let´s celebrate this new forum, be happy

      My 2 cents...

    It's probably due to the conversion taking place then you posting on the other forum since that conversion. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just post ten more times. I think having a good reputation will become much more important than having a high post count anyway.

      You dug up a post from two and a half years ago to add that tripe?

      Maybe you don't value the ability to have a sig file as much as you thought you did.

      Because what you are doing is putting your ability to advertise here in jeopardy....
