Hi, it seems that the PA forum database has reach another limit, we have too much members, posts. The system can't handle it well anymore, I will need to work this out and it may be long, so please be patient with this issue. I am confident that the posts count will be re-calculated OK when I fix this. Thanks Max

Maybe it was my artificially enhanced post count. 
I've adjusted it accordingly. |

^^ don't think So Tony ;-)
after more analysis, it is the number of MEMBERS that is too high now. The system was setup to a MAXIMUM of 32919 to work at 100% After that, things are starting to degenerate, I need to fix this NOW. Working on it, but it may be long... stay tuned.  ------------- Prog On ! |

A lot of forums delete members if they don't log in for a year or so. Even if you are generous and make it two years, I bet there are enough such members to significantly delay our day of reckoning.

is this post count issue so important to you or can it simply be dropped... I mean some people are fascinated by their post count numbers and will do anything to increase it to post uselessly... just to appear as an ancient one, for ex...
conversely, some members are probably embarrassed
 by their high post count and wished it would disappear (or at least hide it.... I know I'd feel better if mine was inferior to 5000 or better yet inexistent to public viewing (just imagine your employer finding out your username then seeing that you've posted 60 000 times on this forum and starting to view the posting times and dates) but eventually me and admins... maybe it (post count) can be hidden by the member on his configuration pannel if he wishes to... ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Hugues, if you want your count manually adjusted, just drop a PM to an admin.

Agreed - if I may, I think this could be a sensible measure to be implemented - if you go an entire year without logging in, your account gets deleted. An e-mail can be sent with a warning to anyone that is close to getting the ax.

You would get an e-mail warning when you're close to the cutoff - all you would have to do is simply log in, and the counter would be reset. That doesn't seem too onerous a task.

I'm not dure I find funny my post-count to be augmented (hiked-up) by 40 000 ..... not even in the slightest amusing fashion
Can this be set back to 10590, please???
 or better yet, cheat a little and jack it back down tio 5590????
