This is true for me as well.

I wonder if the recent numbers include deleted posts by bloke.
I've had a few of those.

OK, I'll say it. I bet that the current software is only good to 9,999, and since Sean is working on putting up a new release, the easiest thing to do in the meantime is just to ensure that nobody hits 10,000. For us, the only one who has surpassed this is bloke.

I think I can say definitely that it is possible to hit 10,000--I took a screenshot of it.

I blame black helicopters. Somehow, they are behind this.

The "bloke" is certainly having a chuckle out of all this attention. Good! He deserves at laugh or two. I do wonder how the posts are disappearing though??????

That's spelt "cents".

This little game is requiring a lot more effort by bloke every time he wants to post. Therefore, he is posting less. Therefore, TubeNet is a lot less interesting right now.

The counter does go to 10,000. I saw it last week before he was able to delete some previous posts.

Wade,
I suspect that Bloke suspects that possible you suspect the following:

1) He's going back and deleteing all posts where he was the last one to post.

This is something I have suspected. It is how I would do it. But it is labor/time intensive.

schlepporello wrote:2) There IS something in the way this board works that will not let you go over 10,000 posts.

I suspect that the counter has an arbitrarily set cap that might or might not be able to be changed. But I suspect that if this were the case he would just top out at 9,999 and it would stay there, unchanged. I also suspect that I wanted to find a reason to use the word "suspect" as many times as I could in this post. (suspect)

schlepporello wrote:3) He REALLY IS a witch!

Now, I have seen this fellow in person. He did NOT ride a broom when I saw him! (suspect)

Again...This is just what I suspects that he suspects that you suspect...anyone else suspect this?

We need Doc back. He is good with suspects.[/quote]

I too suspect that he suspects that we all suspect that he is orchestrating a devious plot to remove his own posts from this austere body of work. Would someone connected with a large public school system in West TN please call him and order complete overhauls of 20 or 30 sousaphones so he won't have time to manipulate the forum. Then again he wouldn't have time to post at all.

Not anymore. He's back to 9998. WTF?

Oh, come on, it's easy -- older inconsequential posts are being deleted just to keep this thread going.

All hope is gone. He is down to 8995.
