Post qty not updating

[The Santo]

Having read the new user information I know I can't add a photo or other additional information until I meet a certain criteria, one of them being number of posts. I noticed over the past couple of days that my number of posts is still at 0 BUT I've been commenting on a couple of things. I'm a bit confused.

Can anyone else look at my profile and tell me if it says 0 to them?


Thanks a bunch.

It is always liek that at first for new members. I think it is because some posts by new users need to be manually approved first to make sure they are not spam.

Oh cool, no drama then. Thanks

Or...your posts were mostly in the chat area thus making them ineligible towards your post count.

Ach, that's def it. A bit hard to get my post qty to 10+, when most questions are answered through searching the forums! No one will ever see my lovely (scary) face/picture

Yes, you've got lots of posts in the Community Section. Posts there do not apply to your total. You need to post questions, or answer questions, in the technical sections in order for your post count to increase.

Thanks for the clarification.

Is there any way to fix it so only CORRECT answers count?

And unhelpful, negative or incorrect answers subtract.
