Wondering why the # of posts has dropped to below 1 million. Does this have something to do with this site's problems?

 

hmm really weird. almost like its off a backup. maybe their purging really old posts?

edit: I was way over 1300, so they must be.

 

yeah Im sure they did in an attempt to reduce the HD size on the server.

 

They also got rid of that "quick link" thing I used at the bottom. Oh well whatever works.

 

I can only attach files that are ONE BYTE....

What a wonderful chage that is....

 

Fairlady Z that ride is DOPE! other than that, I guess we shouldnt worry about the posts.

 

Private Classifieds forum was purged.

 

We have hit 1,000,000 posts, but now it's down to 986,000. I think my post count is about 100 less, but I don't really care.

 

The classifieds section was cleaned up, we will *NOT* purge the main forums, there is no reason for that to happen.

 

While I can see the justification behind purging the Classified forum, you have inadvertantly whacked an important source of data. If you want to sell or are looking to buy something, the recent hist of sales for that same idea help determine a "fair market value". IOW, if you know what the last two or three guy paid for something, you know what to pay and not get ripped off.
