Why does andros’s post count read 0 in this this thread?
My guess? The Board software had a case of indigestion.
Well, that’s what it gets for eating poor andros!
From what I’ve seen, it isn’t just that thread. Apparently, it ate andros completely!
Maybe No Bones really did have proof of his alphabet sock theory. Or maybe not.
Bye bye andros! :eek:
Mars, who is glad he looked at the threads in ATMB before opening a duplicate one on the same thing…
Nope, I’m still here.
I asked TPTB[sup]*[/sup] to see if a post count could be reset to zero without screwing things up. It can.
It’s nice to be a newbie . . . everything’s so clear. The grass is so green, the sky is so blue . . .

You’re testing out to see if newbies really do get treated differently, aren’t you? Then you’ll come back to your regular post count and everyone will be so embarrassed that they were so mean to you before when they thought you were low-class, like in all the sitcoms. 
How can he get back to his regular post count? Can you just manually make it whatever you want (you, not me)? Do you know what it was before he was reset? Do these pants make me look fat?

Get to “Comments on Cecil’s Column” or to “GQ”, newbie. ATMB’s for experienced dopers!
Note: I expect a newbie like you to run crying to the pit and start a thread about this response which opens with the phrase “This is my very firstist pit thread”. Well let me tell you, newbie: it’s been done before!
And let me tell you, newbie: you’re not gettin’ into the Secret Clique until you’ve achieved “Beloved old timer” status, somewhere around post 1500 or so.

I had a post count of over 4500 before I tried this trick, now they wont give them back. 
Jeez, why’d you guys take andros’ post count? Why not take handy’s and REALLY make an impact?
If they can set it to zero, I would imagine they can set it to anything. Whats about assigning a random newbie the job of “Piss Handy Off”, and get them up to post 10k before handy does?
Munch - who thinks that might be funny
Yup, Gaudere, I really the heir to a huge fortune, and you’ll all be sorry you were mean to me.
Oh, and Fenris? It’s “firstest.” Get it right next time.

I believe the word you’re grasping for is I’m.
If you’d bothered to lurk a bit before posting, newbie, you’d realize the irony of your misspelling in a post to Gaudere. It’s made all the more ironic, given your typical newbie spelling flame below.
Oooh. A spelling flame from a newbie! How original! :rolleyes: When you have a decent post-count under your belt and prove that you can write posts of substance, THEN feel free to critique my spelling, newbie. I notice that of your whopping 10 posts, you haven’t started a single thread. Here’s a quarter, newbie, go buy yourself a clue.
[sub]Although I will give you some credit for mastering the VB code rather more quickly then the average newbie does, so perhaps there’s some slight hope for you, newbie.[/sub]

Oh yeah? Well . . . well . . . so’s your mom!
Or something.
(actually, you’ll find that I haven’t started many threads at all since I registered. I’d much rather hijack other people’s threads.)
So, how about them Mariners?
But, wait, I thought you really were gaudere. Someone had proof. Real proof that would hold up in a court of law. Never did say what sort of proof it was, but he argued before the Supreme Court. And ran multi-million dollar corporations.
Envious, SPOOFE? Why pick on me? I never had a post party. I don’t even notice my post count most of the time. Even if they reset it, it would probably soon eclipse the highest poster; so no need to reset it 
I type fast & so does andros, soon he be right back where he was unless that nasty post pruning idea cuts the posts counts back.
Losing Alex Rodriguez didn’t hurt them much, did it?
How about Barry Bonds? You think he’ll hit more than 70 home runs this year? Guy already has 32, can you believe it?
A word of warning to the REAL newbies: Don’t ask. You’re better off not knowing.
handy, when you hit 10,000 we’ll know if you care or not.
Possible, but not likely. I suspect he’ll eclipse 50, maybe 60, but he’ll fall short of 70. I think his walk rate will shoot up.
Hard to believe the guy’s never even hit 50.
