post count frozen
I just noticed today. My post count seems to be frozen. I'm not counting multiple posts in the same thread or OMNI posts.
?? What's going on? How to fix?

I noticed the same thing, AND....
Not only is the post count frozen, but when I did post, it added old/obsolete info from my "interests" along the left-hand side.
I'm waiting to earn enough status to have a "signature"; I know that that takes 90 days and 90 posts. I have the 90 days; I don't have the 90 posts yet. That's why I pay attention to the post count!
So, in order to tell folks my upgrade percentage, I keep that listed in my "interests". I updated it from 14/14 to 15/15 sometime last week, but the post I wrote yesterday still had the 14/14 on it.
Help get me my signature!!
Thanks!

Well, the Post-count incremented....
...(hey, I'm really *not* trying to pad my posts, but I noticed....) that while the post count incremented on the above post, the "interest" info remains the same.

I don't pay much attention any more (too depressing to think how much time 9K+ posts represent) but I think my counter might be stuck as well. I am going to watch more closly for a while to be sure.
Edited to add:
Are you sure you really updated it last week? I only ask because I know it's a mistake I might make.

RE: Interests
...heck, I checked again this morning, before I wrote the above post. Yep, it says I've been upgraded 15/15 times, but as you see to the left here, it's just reporting the 14/14.

I used this post as a check. My post counter is (back to) working.

The "interests" option in the user profile.
negs's reads "2010 Upgrades: 14/14 (100%)"
The problem, it seems, is that is apparently last week's version. As I understand it, the more recently entered info (15/15 upgrades) will not display.

I found the problem....
I had the "14/14" in "Program Affiliations". I changed that to read "15/15" and viola! all is well.....
...post count incrementing again as it should, and I can show the world my upgrade success!
