I was just recently looking at my profile when I noticed that I have 408 posts, but if I click on "find all posts," it says there are 410, is there a reason why I'm missing two posts from my count?

of course, one may argue that posts in the community forum shouldn't count, either. but i personally haven't made that argument
that must have been before i was here.bousozoku said:Back then, the posts were all in Community since there was no Political area so they were much more visible than they are now.
i find that if you put a couple select people on your ignore list, the signal to noise ratio increases greatly. good and informative discussion is a daily occurrence.paulwhannel said:admittedly i don't go into the political forum, because people don't listen, and it's exhausting.
