    maybe a mod deleted a few of your posts, or a thread you posted in was deleted?

    It could be that your posts are being deleted. You say it happens every time you log on? For how long has this been happening and how many posts does it go down each time roughly?

    People have the ability to remove ratings they put on a post. That's likely what happened in this case. :heart:

    I don't loose every time that was an eggs agitation roughly about 4/10 times I happens and I loose anywhere from 1-5

    And it's impossible thT they removed the negative rating because I had deleted the post
    , and when u delete the post u don't get rid of the ratings, otherwise everyone would have like 0 negative ratings

    So it's likely just that posts are being removed, or threads you posted in, in the past were deleted and archived.

    As for the ratings, how do you know which of your negative ratings were removed? It likely wasn't ones from posts that were deleted, since, as you said, that cannot be done. It was likely from another post.

    What do you think is going on. Admins aren't giving you post count.

    xD. The only way it is varying is that they are deleting posts and someone is bringing them back.

    2 negative ratings: bad spelling and old became neutral.
    If the thread you posted in got delete you lose post count, plus ratings
    Nothing sinister is happening

    Oh right! I forgot about the ratings switching.

    3283

    Are you satisfied with these reasons? I don't think that there's anything else that could be going on with your post counts and ratings. Just some odd coincidences lately. :heart: An influx of deleted threads, the switch in ratings and the ability to remove ratings.

    To my knowledge, deleted posts will still have the ratings attached to them. As for the decrease in messages, whenever a post or thread is deleted, the post will be removed. I have also realized that the Archive sections do not count towards post count. Say you have 10 posts all in one thread, when that thread is moved to the archive section, you will be back at 0 posts because the archive section does not count towards post count.
    Hope this helped ~

    Nothing is going to come out of this thread people are constantly deleting threads for whatever reason and this will obviously have an effect on your and others ratings as well as messages. I know the feeling myself when the forums were DDoS'd I had 600+ positive ratings and 1,500+ messages and that went all the way down to barely 500 positive ratings and 10 or so posts.

    I don't believe there is going to be any other explanations for this.

    Locking & archiving. If you have a problem with this, please message me. :heart:
