    Posts made in the Coffee Lounge don't count toward your total.

    Hi, Jason!

    The posts in the Coffee Lounge don't actually go towards your post count, but they do everywhere else.

    *EDIT*

    heh... ya beat me to it, Oz!

    Thanks, guys. That clarifies things. It's the nice way of saying get out and discuss Linux, no?

    Hi Jason...

    Not really. We have just had members in the past use the coffee lounge for all sorts or nonsense for no other reason than increasing their post count. Coffee lounge posts not counting kind of helps to cut down on members who just want to "play" rather than actually help others. So far it's worked too.
