176 actually. Where'd you get your number from?Originally Posted by dc68
where do you actually get the number from?? linkage??
The forum index page.
I think dc68's number came from the portal.
I'd trust the former.
so wonder what the portal counts as a post and whats not??
is there are section that you guys dont account the posts from?
My figure came from the mini stats box on first page. sorry I amd not a comp geek wouldn't know where to look.
I'm back.
lol well in actual fact it should be right...but if you want to know where he got the number from, its on the very bottem on the forum page...
Crack open the bubbly.....
beers instead?
I don't reckon we're there yet.

Still 80 to go.
The portal contradicts itself:

http://www.ozgolf.net Mini Stats
Here's my theory:
The post count reflects the number of posts that have been made, including those that have been deleted.
When we transferred across to the vBulletin software from phpBB, the new software recounted the posts based on what were present in the database (not including those deleted).
So the number in the index is the total number of posts including those deleted while we were on the old forum. The number shown on the portal is the total number that vBulletin recognises.
It's just a theory......
If database knowledge serves me well, then...
The #post99920 is an ID - not the actual number of the post.
Say for instance Connico posts off-topic about his alleged sexual exploits - post 99926. No one actually believes this to be true, and AP is forced to delete it several posts later. The 99926 is given back to the system, and that same number may be re-used down the track.
However in a database, nothing is ever deleted permanently. All of the deleted posts still exist, they just have no relevant ID number to be requested and brought to view.
The result would be that you have a post count (at the bottom of the main menu screen) of 100 000 posts, yet there are only 99950 'legal' posts that are viewable.
Lucy Harris smart smart smart, Martin Harris dumb.
[b]Fishy, the post ID does not get re-used (I just tested it).
vBulletin reallocated IDs when we did the transfer, which ignored the fact that there were deleted posts before that used up IDs (not proven). This is where the missing number comes from.
The post count stat on the index page would just be a database variable that increments after each post.
Therefore there have been more than 100,000 posts made, and the index count is the correct one.
