Damn, I didn't realize I had so many posts in the coffee lounge. Oh, well. Guess I'll go and earn my penguins the hard way

edit: Does this post get subtracted from the total too?

I honestly think it's a good idea, but I don't really see the point of subtracting the post count from before this policy was implemented...then again I don't take much stock in post count.

I'm sure it's a lot easier to implement through changing some straigtforward SQL syntax, than putting in arguments to exclude periods of time. SQL + dates = lots of syntax checking!

coffee lounge posting

Thanks Jason Lambert, even though I've posted here a few times in the coffee Lounge, didn't think it was a true post per se. It makes since that this was done.

Good idea to get rid of postcount+-spammerz...

However, I actually think I lost some hundred posts (IIRC I had about 1300 posts)
