Post Counter Not Working

We have disabled post count tracking in select forums. This will help reduce "post-whoring" and "free posts" from members trying to pump up their post counts.

We also have a 50 post minimum requirement (or 6 months membership) to post a new classified ad in the parts for sale forum. This was done to help reduce the potential of newly-registered scammers taking advantage of our members. Now they will have to post in the technical and racing forums to earn their post count, which may help turn them away.

Forums with disabled post-counting:

Introductions & Greetings
Signature Test Forum
Racer's Lounge
Multimedia Exchange
Street Racing & Kill Stories
All Classifieds Forums
All Regional Forums

Basically, if it isn't a technical forum, the posts do not count in it.
I just posted a bunch of times in the LS1-LS6 Internal Engine section. First, off my post weren't counting. Only the first two, then the other 3 didn't count. Secondly, every time I posted I recieved the data base error page that says you can attempt to refresh. Which I did, then it says post duplicate. Well, in the next couple attempts I did that and the post never even showed up. I click refresh again and it was telling me I had a duplicate post, yet it wasn't in there after I typed it.

See these screen shots and notice the times:






I clearly have a posts in these threads, yet it doesn't seem to want to update it. I'm not whining because my posts aren't counting. I'm complaining that this is annoying and in many instances take the time to type something out and then it never shows up.

Those are generally issues with the database tables not being properly indexed(or something along those lines).

I'll be brutally honest, I'm not a DB programmer. Never have been, more than likely never will be. However, Brains has been bringing me up to speed on a lot of stuff, as he is not always able to answer your questions in a timely manner, so I try to help.

Again, no fixes can be made until Brains gets back(which should be any day now if he isn't back already).

Recently, I get about a 25% chance of a thread opening when I click on it. It usually says, "503 service unavailable".

Let's see if this post even shows up?

Same problem here. I'll post something and it won't count my post. An error screen pops up when I hit submit thread. It will submit it but doesn't add to my post count. It will have the dot on which thread I posted in but you would not know that I posted. Don't know whats going on but something seems wrong here. Maybe it'll get better. I hate COMPUTERS

Wait... you have Firefox, but instead of using the built in tabs feature, you have several windows open filling up your start bar?

Brains got back in last night, and has been working on the servers. Things should start falling back in place over the next day or so.....
