Bitcoin Forum

Case #1:
Yesterday I made a reply to a post, the post which I replied was 3 sentences long and today when I checked that thread again that post is now very big.
But the thing I noticed that the poster hasn't edited the post, no edit info there. So I would like to know how is it possible or it's a bug or I'm missing out something?


Case #2:
A few days ago 2 of my posts got decreased from my total post count. I thought that 2 of the topics where I posted got deleted by a mod.
But the next day I noticed my total posts is back to what it was. So what actually may have happened with my post count? Is it a bug or something else?


For case 2, I can't give any evidence right now as I've forgotten the day and time.
This thread is created for case 1, but I also added case 2 as I was also curious to know at that time.

A new post that is edited within the first 10 minutes after it's posted will not show anything in the edit history.


I don't know what happened there.  Maybe a thread got deleted, then reinstated?  I don't know.

I think Direwolf is pretty much spot on. The only way that your post count suddenly dropped and then reappeared is if a thread got moved to the trashcan or deleted and then restored which probably happens from time to time. If this continues to happen and you notice it its probably best that you screenshot it and provide what you were doing at the time. Generally bugs affect a wide range of people and not just a couple so if its not happening forum wide its probably because of what you've posted in rather than it being a bug.

Thanks guys, now I'm clear.  :)

Locking the thread now.
