Forum Belch Inflate your Upload Space

In the past month or two I have lost near 250 posts (not counting pcr's) to seemingly random glitches. I was ignored last time I brought this up, but really do need help [my custom avatars aren't even an option anymore ]

What should I do?

Thanks

Making another 34 posts in forums that will increase your post count is just about your only viable option. Good luck, I'm sure most of us at 'poly enjoy each avatar you have.

Increase Your PM Length

Zylka,

you're not the only one, probably, or then a loss on about 30 messages from my account has to do with something else. At least not deliberate PCR, AFAIK.

Do you guys count your posts on a regular basis? Like every night or something? Do you not sleep at night if they are not all present and accounted for?

Like dragons and gold?

Maybe the admins could re-activate post counts in the OTF but double the panelties for spamming there

Hell yeah, I love dragons and wish to be as much like them as possible. Since I don't have much gold yet, I have to count what I have.

Post count isn't really important in the sense that it'll get you a job or happiness. But once you have a post count of 500 you're allowed to use a custom avatar (like my real-life photograph of how I dress when I have to pass through the Faculty of Arts ).

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I knew that I was wondering if there was anything else behind that I was missing. So it's actually not all that important besides the Avatar thing and the fact that you have made yourself known in this forum (for good or bad).

Impossible. Not even if they tripled the penalties. Everybody who posts in the OT is already a spam addict. You should know that yourself!
