Another member complained about the number of posts he had before the board got upgraded :).

Yeah from ages ago. That board was when we ran UBB, we now run phpBB. All of the users had to re-register after the switch. The most recent upgrade was not a BB change but a version change and all user information was retained during the upgrade.

Eh... post count doesn't really matter.





Wow... I've matured quite a bit in the last seven years... :shock:

I wouldn't mind having my post number back either but it really isn't that important. Just for kicks I checked what all I could edit under the user list, unfortunately it would not allow me to edit the post count.

Shucks.

You can edit post count in phpbb. The trick is that you have to go directly into the database and manually change the count yourself. It can't be done through the phpbb client itself.

I only know this because I changed forums at DRE back when that site was up, and a few people wanted to retain their post counts (myself included). The site was small enough that it wasn't a problem. It was a little bit of a pain to go into the database and change the post counts directly, but it could have been worse.

Mind you, this was 4-5 years ago, so that could have changed since. :)

Not that it really matters. :)

PS - Hi Byrd! Haven't seen you in a while!

This I know too but really don't feel like manually editing everyone's post count. Maybe when I'm stuck and home and am really and I mean REALLY bored... maybe and I emphasize maybe will I do it.

Wow. I'm surprised you're even considering it... no matter how unlikely. I was just giving you a hard time.
