post count??

[Chiaroscuro]

I'm confused... I understand that 50 posts are required in order to view some of the hidden sections of the site. My current post count is 43, which is the same post count that I had prior to posting two comments on separate threads. Getting curious, I searched for my user name specifically in the advanced search. To my surprise it turned up 64 individual threads that I have posted in. I know that I have also commented multiple times in several of these threads.
Am I missing something or is the post counter not working quite right?
Curious minds want to know!

So how does that explain the other 20? o.O

You'll get there. If your goal is to get 50 posts, the you probably won't last here. If your goal is to participate, then the 50 come fast.

I know I am kinda a newb but how many people come on here shooting for 50 so they can sell something?

Only been on here a few months but it seems like a theme.

Once you get into the "Hidden" section, you may wish you hadn't.

There's an option to keep it hidden, because some peole were so offended by it.




(Now I've piqued your curiosity, and you'll be in a mad rush to see the prurient and disgusting stuff. It's human nature.)

Don't be. It is good/bad place and can be a real sewer at times.

I noticed posting comments on gallery photos doesn't seem to change my post count. Am I correct?

Oh, for God's sake, just participate wherever you want. At some point, you'll be able to go into the Water Cooler and post ads. What's the rush?

Actually, I already know to a degree (benefit of having the fiance already on the forum!) And it really isn't likely to offend me, I don't offend easily.

I just want to understand how the rules work. In most forums "posts" are indicative of how many times a person makes a comment, regardless of whether or not they have already commented in a thread. My count wasn't reflecting that, which is why I asked.

Believe me, I'll be around for a while. It isn't about just getting to see the "dirty" parts, I am sure it won't be anything I haven't seen before!
