Post count not correct

[ghinmi]

Curious, it seems that my post count went down. I've been a member for 11 years, I used to have enough posts to view the classifieds but now I'm bumped down to 25. If you search my posts I've got 40. Is there anything that can be done about it?

[Sneetches]

IIRC, posts in Chit Chat don't count.

[DeviledEggs]

Pretty sure mods will delete meaningless or worthless posts from time to time. Comments like, "Nice truck" or "What he said^^", for example. Not sure of any other criteria...

[ghinmi]

I have no short posts like that and only a small number are in chit-chat. That's what's confusing me.

How many posts do you need to view classifieds?

Read the sticky at the top of this forum. 30 posts and 30 days of membership or buy a star.

Subtracting chit chat and regional posts, as well as one that is in a thread that has been removed, your post count is accurate.

If you have been into this for 11 years, share some of the knowledge you have gained with some newbs. Why make a post about missing posts when you could help out a new guy with an easy question. Im sure there are a few guys asking if they need a bec or not.

That's the problem, I have next to no knowledge on modern stuff. The last time I wrenched on one of these was when Cirrus CS80mg was an acceptable servo and a Tamiya silver can was a decent crawler motor. I've still got that old Clodbuster but it's so far out of date I'm not sure it's worth screwing with.

Go buy an Axial RTR rig and start having some fun. Or if you want a more scale rig, look into the RC4WD trucks. Only way to get back into it is to get back into it!

So it looks like you lost privilege when a thread got deleted. If you have no knowledege about newer equipt. but you're looking to buy something, maybe asking a few questions about getting back into the hobby would be the right way to go

I bought a SCX10 ii kit and just attended my first gathering last weekend. Already have the itch to throw away half the kit and start fabricating, lol. Going to hold myself back for now. I think.

I can't believe I missed out on a SCX10 II that someone just sold for $50 on Craigslist about an hour's drive away from me. He said he bought it for his kids and they weren't interested in it - looked practically new!

I started kinda like you , @ghinmi... years ago I had a buncha RC's, even joined this forum but didn't post - just lurked.

I lost 'em all in a fire and didn't get back into this until months back - just been gathering upgrade parts for my unbuilt RR10 and been reading everything I could find here (and a few other sites, but by far mostly here!).

But I couldn't even reactivate my old account. Sent emails to admin with no replies. So, I had to start all over. No biggie - I'm currently only buying new parts and not selling anything.

After I finish my build I will have tons of extra parts - even some upgrades that I changed my mind on and bought something that appealed more to me.

I may just build another Bomber-based vehicle using a Bomber frame rail kit and a lexan body instead of a Bomber cage with everything........ would be nice to have a backup rig!

Anyway, welcome back to the fold!

[ferp420]

I'm still running a clod based rig I love it it won't keep up with modern crawlers but it dose do pretty good for as top heavy as it is and its still a very fun rig out of date or not and parts.are cheap I've got less than $200 in mine total with new metal gears new axles new shocks new chassis the only original parts are 3 of the knuckles and 3 shafts and the little axle braces and maybe a few bushings other than that its all brand new exsept for the jug body and the custom aluminum bed and role bar

my jugg buster


Sorry I dont know anything about post count just comenting on your clod post

[jjbigfly]

Not quite the same issue, but.....
I joined about one week ago, made a post asking for advice and I never saw it on the forum. Sent mail to the moderators and never got an answer. Twice. The site lets me log in and recognizes my user name and my last visit.
Any clue?

[EeePee]

The website help email goes into a black hole no ones about. What forum did you post in?

[jjbigfly]

I posted in newbie general. Mostly the post was about being well invested into off road buggys and moving into crawlers. Have a selection of esc and brushless motors and the like. Wondering what I could use.....
Still would like to find out

[jjbigfly]

And an apology for hijacking this thread.....
