it was pointed out by a dear friend yesterday, but our post count had disappeared. Can one of the mods tell me why and when we will have them back?
Quite a few if us rely on those for not just the obvious but they give some indication as to how long someone has been with us etc..
Please bring them back soon... :grin:

    Hi Tony,

    We had a thread on LW about this.... i said then and say again I love them not being there!

    Used to get stick for amount I posted and hated the numbers from the beginning......

    I also think it implies the people who post a lot are somehow better and they are not at all, we are all of equal importance so its made it more friendly to those who don't post much.

    I just love not having those hideous numbers following me about :grin:

    Hope your ok and go a bit of sun there? Purrs and a tin of tuna for Ra with tea for you. Cris xx

    I had noticed and wondered why it has changed. Now you have to look at someone's profile to see how many posts they have made.

    Also, the Delete and Edit buttons seem to vanish very quickly after submitting a post. It now doesn't seem possible to return to a post and delete it or change it later if you want to.

    Why has this changed :?: I hope that we can be informed.

    I wanted to change a spelling error I made in a post on LWA and couldn't see the necessary button. This is not a good move, often a further thought hits you, or you need to amend summat. Fiddling about may give the tecchy people enjoyment, but the lack of courtesy in informing the forum users about the changes they have decided to make smacks of arrogance, maybe even belittles us.

    The post count isn't that relevant, but it does help to spot the rarer ones or new people who may need a more delicate approach with support and encouragement. DD

    someone up in the heavens has been messing... The old adage of 'if it ain't broke, why fix it?' Springs to mind...
    Bit of a heads up would have been nice. Or even having a poll to see if us mere mortals wanted it changing. The forum is after all, for us...
    I just don't like people messing with things.. I liked having my post count :cry: I miss him, yes, mine was male, his name was Karloff... I used to read him bedtime stories of an evening.. First I lose my beloved Gary and now Karloff :roll:
    WHY? :eek: :cry::cry::cry:
