Post count

Why does my post count keep going down? I've hit 800 like 4 times now.

Not that it matters but just curious.

I have noticed that some of my posts have gone missing out of the UA string.

Let me elaborate in a more blunt fashion.

quality posts = good
bad posts = not good
many quality posts = very good
many bad posts = very not good

I make no inferences with this statement, but if we're worried about our post count, it means we belong to one of the bottom two categories, and have likely just made one bad post.

In fact Phbpbb.com the people who made this forum has disabled that feature because of it being abused.

Is it just me, or is Wellander's User Agent string not appearing?

MozillaZine has disabled their ranking title and post counts.

Wellander might have be using an unusual browser or disabled his useragent or the useragent string information is withheld by whatever third party software.

Hi,
It is not appearing in any browser.
Why?
I do not know.
I need to investigate.

That's really odd. I don't know what happened to the User Agent. Wellander, if you're reading this, check the other thread about your problem. I just posted a link where you can check your User Agent.
