Default How Come My Post Count Doubled Overnight?

Was it because previously only sensible, music posts were counted and now any old "wasteland" style crap is included?

I would guess so, though I dunno why that's been done.

Sure Neil will be along at some point to explain.

Correct. This morning I made a change so all posts you've made regardless of in which forum (with the exception of posts made in the Testing forum) are now counted as there were some users who had a post count of 0 even though they had made plenty of posts. This was causing various problems in the system. Weighting changes will be made in the reputation system to still give more +ve reputation to those people's posts in the "on-topic" forums as opposed to the "off-topic" forums (i.e. everything under General Discussion).

It's correct I'm afraid, although it only shows the number of posts you've made that are still on the forums. We used to cull the older posts in The Wasteland back in the day and so a lot of your previous posts may have been deleted then. We stopped doing that though when The Wasteland was renamed and expanded under General Discussion.
