How does one have -32 posts on a2k?

I'll bump this up. Maybe somebody important will find it.

Right you are! As a self proclaimed impertinent - I mean important person, I will give my idea.

I have seen this sort of thing a few times and I think what happens is a person registers, makes posts which are against the TOS here and so they are removed. However, the number of posts register doesn't have a way to go in reverse so the count remains.


A way to test out this theory would be to take a Spammer (there are several in the late hours). Their posts get axed. Bookmark their profile and look at it in a day or so. If the count remains and the posts do not, then you have the answer.

You could be right. As for the rest, I doubt I'll remember all that.

But that doesn't account for the negative number (when his profile still as a positive amount of posts). Just curious about what seems to be a posting count glitch.

I'm curious, too. Makes me wonder about how accurate the rest of the post counts are.

It could be a net total of sorts. Say the user has 10 posts, but the total shows -32, so the net posts made would be 42
