Default Post count going backwards?

Is a mod deleting my posts? If so, you could at least have the decency to let me know that it's you doing it and for what reason.

Your post count drops if they delete a thread that you've posted in or if you posted in an extremely old thread that is deleted. Basically, if anything thread gets deleted that you've posted in, your counts goes down.

Either that, or you've ticked off the mods and they have developed a personal vendetta against you to destroy your count.

They purge the forum of old posts (several sections I believe) once in awhile.

I'm not sure, but I think that would be considered insider trading. You wouldn't want a huge sell-off of posts. It could send the New York Post Exchange into a free-fall.

Lounge and Marketplace threads are regularly purged (deleted). If you posted there, your count drops.

Easiest way to keep your post, Invent something new for the 350Z, make a thread about it....

2nd easiest way, buy a turbo kit, post in the FI section about it....

3rd and really the only sure thing, post replies to stickies.

This honestly is the dumbest thread of the week... Mods when the OP is finished ranting and you guys delete the thread hell get even more sore.

All good replies and I know that OT posts are purged. However, this is not why I created this thread. I've noticed that my posts are being deleted and thought this would be a good way of getting said mod to step forward. Rather, I get ridiculed and said ***** mod stays in hiding.

There is not one said Moderator who is singling you or anyone else out, for that reason. We all take turns purging threads that are dedicated to pictures or videos...ect. It's common practice and cuts down on the amount of posts members have to cypher through to get to the real stuff. Insulting Staff members who volunteer our time, to make sure this site flows smooth for your enjoyment, is not cool sno. Not cool at all my man...

Actually we're implementing a new VBulletin program.

-After three years, your post will start to count backwards for the following three years.

-If you exceed your limit, your account is automatically banned.

-You get immunity if you're Mod or Premiere member.

Total noob/troll destroyer!

I purged the hell out of the funny picture thread and I noticed a hell of a lot of your comments (not pictures, just post ***** comments) in that thread, so I would assume I am the ***** mod that you are crying about.

now onto the next subject, I am also looking at your posting history (since you wanted to bring some attention on yourself) and have noticed you like to post *****. "welcome to the forum" posts in all the new member threads.... well, those are going away now.

You will also notice one of the mods before me banned you for calling mods pussies. Then you created a second screen name. I just extended your ban, so is that a ***** move on my part? oh wait you cannot respond to that now can you? See your sore butt in 3 months, unless you try creating another screen name and then we will see you never again.
