Post counts
 

Anyone notice post counts aren't updating? Is it just my browser?

I was at 14,883.

And with this post I'm now at 14,884.

It’s not something I ever look at...

27917

Nope, it's just you.

Interesting.

Okay, here's a test. As I type, my post count is 6730.

Edit: Looks like I'm still in the count.

I wonder if it has something to to with the "failure to completely load" in a timely manner. I posted earlier of how the page doesn't completely load for quite a while--just the spinning circle. Still happens to me, and others I assume. Maybe if you post and leave the page before the loading is complete, that aspect of the record--post count--doesn't always register.

You get cut off when you have more than 15,000. Really way too many posts.

17664 before this post

And 17665 after.

So nope, no cut off

It's obviously my account. My Ipad does the same thing. Pelican has been operating strangely lately. It quit working altogether on my iPad using Safari. Had to switch to Firefox.

Yes, what it reports on the left is what your current post count is. Just like, I think, if you change your signature, it changes what's displayed on all of your posts, not just new posts.

Now all of my posts in every thread that I've ever posted in are showing 27,924.

No they don't. Not anymore

it's a dynamic value , that shows the actual total posts
on all posts you made..

Wow I've been on this forum for over 17 years and only have that number you see to your left here...I guess I better get moving to catch up with all you johnny come lately who are in the 5 digits already

try harder.

I was being facetious. Any excuse to run up my post count is a good one.

I'm all in for not showing post counts at all. What good does it do?

It puts a yardstick on how much time we have available to waste.

^^^uh oh.

There's a post count?

4734 before......

I like to think of it as a yardstick of how much wisdom I have to share. :D

BTW, on my computer this post has the same post count as my OP. I think my computer is telling me I'm out of wisdom.

I'm coming up on my 15 year anniversary here and I think I'd be embarrassed if my post count was any higher than it is. ;)

Do they both show 17421?

Nope. Every post in this thread is 17422. Every one.

It's Russians.

Oops. Wrong forum.

It's magnets!

Well, you must be good now. Your posts are up to 17431.

13,585 is the perfect post count....

I was just thinking the same thing.
