Cranfield Posted April 13, 2002 Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 If you go to the Topic List and go "back to the beginning", it starts from December 2001. The earliest posts on the topics are dated 21st Dec 2001. So, if the Forum started Dec 2001, how is it that some of the posters have 100+ posts credited to them on their Dec 21st postings ?

Kev Posted April 13, 2002 Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 Hi Cranfield The Posts are associated with a members current status not the member history. So the number of posts is not static to the day you made the post but relates to the total posts the member has made to date. Hope this explains it for you.

Cranfield Posted April 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 Cheers Kev, I didn,t understand a word of that. :( I may not have phrased my questions very well. Try this; When did this Forum start ? The "number of posts" under your name is the number of posts you have made to this site. Correct ? Did this site evolve from another site ? Cheers. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted April 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 Thanks William, now stick with me a bit longer. The first time I posted my post number was "1". The second time I posted my post number was "2". The "system" went back and amended my first post "1" to a "2". Is that right ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted April 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 No need to answer that one as I have just answered it myself. :( My last post was 63 that changed to 64 and all my previous posts became 64. This is the first Forum I have seen that does that. Normally you just accumulate your posts 1 then 2 etc. I was interested in the age of the site because I wanted to make sure I had read all of the archive postings, so that I avoided topic duplications as much as possible. When I saw that it only went back to December and yet posters then had 100+ posts to their names, I assumed that there were other postings I had not seen and could not access. I hope this makes sense. :what: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted April 14, 2002 Report Share Posted April 14, 2002 High chaps and Lazza, I’ve been fairly quite as of late but now it time for some PAYBACK! I dyslexic might but say they most people influential of are time well were as (but I know who don’t were they). Decipher that if you can! I’ve always had to talk to you on a low level instead of a professional one so I didn’t insult your intelligence (that’s how its spelt). But lets face it If it wasn’t for my PC prowess and skill you would still be on the Amiga 1200 (LOL) and all these good people on the forum would of missed out on meeting you (sorry guys). I hope you still have you sense of humour or that your aim with your fist is the same as a shotgun. Having Fun VEK :laugh: :laugh: :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazza Posted April 14, 2002 Report Share Posted April 14, 2002 You know where to stand,to be safe from my fist!..................Right where I'm aiming it!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
