Title: Posts number Post by: Husires on June 02, 2018, 10:26:24 PM I checked the number of posts and found a difference between the visible number per user and the actual number (https://i.imgur.com/V4Qqcn2.png).
The number appears to be true for my account but is wrong for some accounts."If we ignore posts in Serious discussion/ Ivory Tower / mods" - KingScorpio: number of Posts: 3015 actual number 3047 - BillyBobZorton: number of Posts: 3211 actual number 3106 - Jet Cash: number of Posts: 4007 actual number 3792 - Theb: number of Posts: 1805 actual number 1771 - d5000: number of Posts: 4610 actual number 4509 and more. check it Title: Re: Posts number Post by: Seetheummerallyeah on June 02, 2018, 10:27:19 PM You need to account for deleted/hidden/removed posts

Posts do not get counted in Serious discussion section Bitcoin Forum > Other > Serious discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=250.0) 2. Both Posts and Activity do not get counted in Ivory Tower section. Bitcoin Forum > Other > Serious discussion > Ivory Tower (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=251.0) - Posts in Ivory Tower neither activate a potential-activity period nor increase your post count. Sorry I did not see the last part of your first paragraph. I made some corrections and seems like we both have different results. Can anyone else confirm their numbers for the mentioned users? You need to account for deleted/hidden/removed posts But it should show the same number for everyone in the history page. Isn't it?Title: Re: Posts number Post by: actmyname on June 02, 2018, 11:32:45 PM There are gaps in the number of actual posts vs. the post count on a user's profile due to moved threads, among other things. (Can only remember that moved threads add to the disparity. theymos wrote something about this before)

(Can only remember that moved threads add to the disparity. theymos wrote something about this before) But the difference is strange "For some, the number looks bigger, vice versa", for example, Jet Cash has 4007 > 3792 while KingScorpio has 3015 < 3047Title: Re: Posts number Post by: SFR10 on June 03, 2018, 05:29:01 AM Can anyone else confirm their numbers for the mentioned users? Here's mine (after ignoring "Serious discussion & Ivory Tower" boards):
But it should show the same number for everyone in the history page. Isn't it? If they have the same boards preferences, "YES".theymos wrote something about this before) You have 3497 posts. 3 of them are in the serious discussion sections, which don't count. 6 of them are redirection topics, which don't count. So your post count should be 3488, which is what it is. But the difference is strange "For some, the number looks bigger, vice versa", for example, Jet Cash has 4007 > 3792 while KingScorpio has 3015 < 3047 Not sure why you're getting a number, higher than the indicated post number on profile pages but for other accounts, I think you may have other boards (apart from the above mentioned boards) on ignore as well.On a side note: There was a recount on March, 11, 2018. I did a recount of post counts earlier today. There are several bugs which cause the post count to drift from its real value over time. The current count is the accurate one.

So your post count should be 3488, which is what it is. So, lets rephrase the statement that theymos had... "You have 3497 posts (Actual #). 3 of them are in the serious discussion sections, which don't count. 6 of them are redirection topics, which don't count. So your post count (# of Posts) should be 3488, which is what it is." Here is yours...
This is what I have now....
Q: Did you make any mistake counting the Actual # for Jet Cash? Now looking at my counting for both # of Posts and Actual #, it seems like what theymos said is not actually always true. The system is giving conflicting counts. Notice KingScorpio and Theb - they do not satisfy the explanation that theymos had. I am pretty sure theymos did not notice it yet.

No, but here's an updated table (dissimilar result between us) with screenshot:- Serious discussion & Ivory Tower on "ignore".

We are seeing different counts. I not sure how about others. The gap is huge in between 4195 and 4008. There must more cased like Jet Cash's one. - Serious discussion & Ivory Tower on "ignore". |
