Paddy has jumped from 9th or 10th to 2nd overnight. I wonder how that happened? That would be several hundred, if not a few thousand posts!!!

PS - I see that a guesstimate of my previous number has been re-instated ...

Would you rather have more Posts and the old Forum?

Obviously, it matters little, other than being an acurate historical record of an insignificant statistic.
It's just an observation, not a complaint.
But to answer your (rhetorical) question, the slowness on the old server was beginning to be inconvenient for me at this hour, and the noon hour, but otherwise I just enjoy it here so much that it really didn't bother me.
krisssel, I've had several "issues" for which I've started threads lately. My fingers are stronger as a result of the numerous follow up posts.

So, how'm I gonna know what my real post count is?? I should have been a statistician - a closet statistician. I make a comment or three about the lists being screwed up, and what happens???

Gregg, you could get one of those little clicker counters and use it every time you post.

Actually I'm beginning to like having a lower number as it makes it seem like I have a real life.

I always wanted to say that; but my fantasy was saying it to a whole class of teachers!Later: It worked! Now if I can prove with a PDF file of the postings wishing me a happy 50th last August just what my count was then can I "magically" put my post count back to that at least?

I see that Paddy's total has reverted to "ranking" her near the "bottom" of the Top Ten Overall list instead of near the top. I guess that's how leap-frogging works...
Post by: Gregg on June 09, 2006, 07:42:38 AM
Yep. It worked.
Went into "Full Edit" mode of one of my posts. It allows me to change the topic title. Had to make this post to make it come to the top so I didn't have to find it again. Only works on topics the editor started, I think.

The list is way jumbled up from where it stood yesterday. Niel is down, I'm up. Bill is back (on the list) and almost everyone but kelly has changed position.
Jennie, you were restoring post counts, right? How 'bout an update on the progress....
Post by: Highmac on June 09, 2006, 10:30:12 AM
My count, at 2,007 just before this one, seems about right since before the change I was just short of the 2,000. Don't you just love our admins.... we all say "of course, it doesn't matter" at the same time as we whinge and moan about the numbers being wrong - and they humour us by sorting out the numbers. Many thanks - your efforts are appreciated. Hope it's not creating too much work for you

I only asked Jennie for an update because I knew she'd been working on it. I've posted often about it, but it's not a big deal.
