Shee ite, its true. I saw the thread about cutting 'off topic' replies and somehow lost half of mine as a result, but at least I have more than one. Well done me, but isnt life cruel.

I would rather see a user rating system. Some people have thousands of posts but it doesn't mean the information they provide is useful. Just look at those users that just post emoticons

There have even been some users that had over 1000 posts before they owned their first BMW.

well, you certainly can't say that about E90Fleet, that guy probably didn't loose any posts by this demotion.

just to make things clear, that's a compliment, E90Fleet!

I thought you guys were joking at first. But I lost less than 10. User rating system is a good idea, as some people do not own an e90 or have little interest in purchasing an e90 in the near future. Sad, but true. Whoever said good company wasn't free never visited e90post.

How do you guys know what your post count used to be? Were you watching it closely and remember or is the old count posted somewhere? I never look at my post count so I have no idea if I lost any.

FWIW, without a user rating system I think only counting On Topic posts is a good solution.

Did all the admins really just go through all the threads and delete a ton of posts?

Basicly, we can set which forums count towards your post totals, so we unchecked the off-topic forums so they just wont count towards post totals now. But nothing got deleted or anything

Since you bring it up, didn't he start a whole thread about how he is hitting 3000 posts (https://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13447)? If that thread gets moved to Off Topic (since it has nothing to do with BMW) then he will be back below 3000
