I've only just realized.. The other day (when I first started posting in the "user above" survival threads) I noticed my forum post count was at 319. I thought I'd posted more than that, but just shrugged it off. A moment ago, I noticed it was STILL at 319, although I've posted umpteen times in the survival threads since. I posted again just to be sure and yes, it still didn't update. Do forum posts in the "kiss/harvest the user above" threads not count towards forum posts, or is it just not updating for some strange reason..?

There are several forums that do not increase post count (including the event forums, welcomes, and games). Creating a new topic also does not increase your count.

Posts on event forums (the survival forum), user run games, welcomes and introductions (I think) and starting a topic do not count.

edit: slow

Ah ha! How did I not know that..lol. Thanks, guys!

Locking as resolved! :)
