I have devised a defence strategy to ensure minimal disruption in Post Count Deletions, viz a viz Psuedo-Reptilian Evil Dictator Cobra's evil plan (tm) and also the Independent Anarchist Yak-Now.
Simply drag up an old thread by a member who hasn't posted in years and hey presto - no deletion of entire threads :D
Random common sense wotpp :Everyone could of course stop creating 'inane' threads & discuss real subjects sensibly ... :eek2:
Considerable experience in 'teh way' will be required for this & many here just ain't even 'got a clue' ! :flames:
Common sense and the lounge never quite went hand in hand!
Ahhh but once upon a time it indeed did...Quote:

Sometimes its not always apparent just where a thread is eventually going, I for one, for instance (others have this 'skill' too -Adept being a fine example of this 'trickery', among many others), often start topics that seem to have nothing to do with anything at all, but then 'draw you all in' to my killer punchline or thought once the point is made - which I don't want stopped at all, but lots of stuff here now is just drivel ..
SOmethings wrong, at home right now, i can see my post count say 699 yesterday it said 700+ whats going on, whats it say to u guys?
Oh the evidence is all here somewhere .. but I'll save you the trouble with this brief summary - various folks have deleted some 'old / not important' threads for 'whatever' reasons, so if you replied to any of them then your post count make have taken a hit.Quote:

You can expect this "useless warring" to continue if the situation continues to degrade.
If it makes them feel better, they can go right ahead and conitnue deleting threads.
It won't matter at all in the end.
Man you have to pay attention when I'm doing it :p .. but no secret agenda on this one ;) & anyway I didn't start this thread, so if you are waiting for some 'deeper moral meaning' on this you'd better see Adept !Quote:
