it could also be the the original poster has chosen to delete their post(s) (a lot of that happening now that omni is open to the public) tho i don't know how that affects subsequent quoted posts

as to post counts, i have learned that if a thread is moved to omni, all who posted in that particular thread will have their post count go down by the corresponding number of posts in the "moved thread"
