Can I get my Post Count Restored?

[Imran Siddiqui]

After the Big Crash (of 2001 ), I lost ~2000 posts off my post count. I had 9900+ posts, and Ming can verify that (as well as probably others). Since Ming can verify it, I see that as proof. I wouldn't wish to post over 2000 posts to reach the outskirts of Diety again...

Can you restore my post count? Pwease...

It's not the size that matters Imran, it's the skill.

Awww...

Does not the Koran have something to say about false vanities such as post count status?

I lost about 1700 posts....a drop from King to Warlord...

Keep going phoenix, for the meek shall inherit the Earth.

Of course it's unfortunate to drop from one level to another like this, but why don't we take this chance to get rid of the post counts altogether?

Would preempt a lot of problems in the future, and maybe people would concentrate on posting something of interest to others instead of just themselves.

Quite a large number of posters are sick and tired of post counts from what I've heard.

But there must be something in it for the admins since they won't let go of it. I just can't figure out what it is.

I volunteer to have my post count distributed to unfortunates that have suffered a reduction. Take this which burdens my soul and give it to those whose self image requires fertilization.

Because many posters value the post count, PCRs have been a somewhat effective means of discipline

[Eli]

Hmmm...

That means no?

[MikeH]

Who cares? Post count just makes the forums feel a bit more Civ-ish.

Amateurs. If you're going to lose a post count, nuke the lot. You can have some of mine if you like.

I want to be a Diety...

Oh, well, guess this is a good a time as any to start posting the Coffee Shop (yes, I mean Spam to get to where I once was.. or maybe I should ask Dan, he's not as mean as Mark ).

You misspelled deity!

A sure sign you aren't ready yet to be one
