Hello guys, I've noticed something strange, when I post, the stats doesn't get updated. It's like my post count has freezed :S Anyone knows what it's all about? And why this is happening? And perhaps what to do to fix it?

Thanks.

Well I don't know if this has anything to do with it but in "The Bin" your posts don't count towards your post count.

Hope that helped.

That means when I post something in the Bin, it doesn't count as a post?

The Queen · September 25, 2008

Correct.

It's mainly to stop people spamming in there. All the topics where people post non-stop are in there so they don't count to their Post Count as it may give them an unfair advantage etc..

Thanks buddy :)

I can see what you mean, and it's only fair that it is like it is.

Correct, some people were using it as chat and boosting their post count thus the decision was made to make that a non-post count adding forum. :D

I see :D But before you guys told me the reason, and I didn't know about it, I just got a little confused, as I was pretty sure that I had posted over 4 posts that day, and it was still saying that I've only posted 1 post. So as it didn't make too much sense to me at that point, I felt I needed to ask you guys :D

And now I know how things work - a little better! And thanks mates! :)
