Post count and other rewards

[baius]

[post][/post] and [thread][/thread]

What do these do?

Some Useful links

• BB Code List - Shows all the available BB codes available on the forums. And a couple that aren't. The "Attachement" and "Signature Picture" tags are not supported.
• Smilies - Shows the smilies and their codes supported by the forums.
• Forum Rules - Pretty self explanitory if you ask me.
• User Groups - This shows all the mods, admins, staff and special users. Includes the HEXUS.Social members as detailed above.

Look in the BB Code list.

Basically, you put the post ID in the [post= ] tag and a comment in between and you don't have a massive URL cluttering up your text. [thread ] works in the same way.

[noparse] is a very useful one as well

How come my post count next to my user id (in my mini stats) does not agree with the number of messages I have actually posted on the message board, which you can see for searching for posts by my user name? I noticed the change a couple of days ago. Its not the number of threads I have posted in, as this post itself did not appear to count. I guess its only counting ones in specififc forums.

Certain forums have post count turned off. This is to try and stop one liner posts like "Welcome to HEXUS" counting towards things like For Sale access and Scans free shipping

We can also alter post count manually if we feel people are spamming, but people are given fair warning of this

I don't need to read them, now I've read your excellent explanation. Thanks!

Following your "reading list", I uncovered:

• :mexican:
• :offtopic:
• :pcpunch:

They're cool. (The offtopic one seems massively relevant, here.)

I'll add something about the Welcom forum not counting towards your post count.

Also, there is a fill list of smilies is you click the More link below the advanced message box

500 posts for an Avatar!? That's absurd!

We can make it 1000 if you like?

In all seriousness it's just a small way to 'reward' long term members here.

Well more attainable goals might get me posting more. But such a high mark for such a standard feature is pretty absurd. But then it's your forum. You asked for comments, and well, we gave them.

I don't see why the amount of posts needed for an avatar would affect the amount that you post

I think Royal Mail should have an avatar. They have more post than anyone. (Please don't ban me, Agent.)
