haloscan Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 I'm not complaining about the post count loss (I'm relatively new to the forums) but isn't there a way to purge records without dropping the post count? Also what is the reason for the negative post counts?

Spyder Veteran Posted November 15, 2002 Veteran Share Posted November 15, 2002 pointless posts... where is the line drawn on that? to you it may be someone who only posts with a "cool :)" .. to me, i might think your post was pointless... to someone else, they might think all posts are pointless unless you post at least a paragraph of text. posts are posts.... everyone is contributing and good for us all.

Elliot B. Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Useful replies are: ? Replies that show a persons opinion (e.g. Gooey) ? Replies that help someone in one way or another (suggestions count) Useless replies are: ? One/two worders such as "cool" or "lol" ? Saying one persons opinion is wrong. No opinion is wrong. It's an OPINION! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/49729-forever-changing-post-counts/page/2/#findComment-505763 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will just be the same. Besides there hasn't really been that much post spam here lately... even with the post counts lowered a little. Keep them... it shows (for the most part) how much experince you have around Neowin.

Gooey Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 :no: I have to say I disagree, if anything the date you joined says how much experience you have, not the amount of posts or stars (aka pips) that someone has. I think it's a shame that some people with high post counts seem to think post counts actually matter. However my original point was really that we don't need them if that'll help keep the DB lean 'n' fast, if it doesn't help that much then I'm happy for them to stay if other people find them useful.
