I just noticed today that no post count on mobile phones and PDAs's subforums? to be exact on Android and Blackberry discussions.

Previously that section is post counted area.

Yes, these are the changes we have made yesterday. They are now post count disabled sections, considering high influx of spams in these recent months.

No wonder not even 1 year member can get more than 5k posts

anyway thanks for the answer

then should edit here http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=faq&article=3 to avoid another similar thread like this.

anyway,any other subforum affected?

Well,I suspect N8's thread as the culprit.

Suspending post count in this sub forum is kinda good idea.
Perhaps admins will consider suspending post count in iPhone section also.

For FAQ stuffs, need the Admins to edit it.

All the sub-sections and sub-sub sections of Mobile Phones & PDAs section are post count disabled now.

As for the iPhone section, we will monitor it and will apply the changes should we see the needs. Since iPad section is not a post count enabled section, we will look into iPhone then.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Anyway post count is almost meaning less when you have more than 100 posts...

I agree. Can't find much useful info apart from the very first page.

Thx for the info.. was wondering as well why is there not post count..

this question yesterday i already ask
refer it http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1785277

I have been contribution everyday.. Now in a sudden you guys make decision like this?? Why dont you guys warn those spamming instead of disable it??? It kind of not fair... It will make forumer (the serious one) loosing faith in this forum... If you want to implement it then iPhone section should have the same way, nothing special with them afterall...


alieamin are you referring to me?? Do you know my effort and time spend here???

i think so as well... i originally was following that thread quite frequently, but now, i just feel like no point going there, it's too random and most of them arent really about the phone as well... and there are some picture spammers there that causes some scrolling as well

what's the big deal? if you're a sincere contributor, you wouldn't even be posting with that kind of tone, would you?

the bolded part gives me the impression that you're a post count hunter.

lol wat...im not only referring to u, there is plenty other members too, and im not pointing to blackberry section, other section as well. I believed u only focused on blackberry section. Symbian and android section also has a member like u, trust me.

If u want mods to warn any spammer, i bet there is at least 100 members to be warn, and u are the one.

Honestly i actually dont care about post count, i open this thread to inquire since i thought it was a bug since i always getting 504 error, so i just want the admin alert regard this.

Im not a post hunter, it just you guys never appreciate what I did and do to this forum and community but anyhow it is your way you think of it, then is fine.. Your forum you rule the game and you are the player...

This post has been edited by dicksonbell: Mar 11 2011, 10:46 AM

and how do you know we don't appreciate what you did? and are you expecting?

in fact most people just contribute out of passion, don't care about post count, couldn't even be bothered whether mods appreciate them or not.

members like David83 contributes for ages and never even complained anything. we only rewarded him ELITE tag of late.

Fine then, just let it be.. If you got time take a look at the BlackBerry section and ask " fruitie" and other mods what I do and did to assist them on that particular section... All the best to your forum and you have successfully become a famous for the community...

bro d***...that mean ,,without post count u don't want to shared anything that u got?

LO.. is it the post count is very important? post many thing but it not counted... i tak kesah lah... the most important our contribution to lowyat.net mehh...

Since you quoted my name here, let me clarify on this matter.
Earlier, you were seen spamming around and we have received numerous reports against you which I have later sent you PM-es to verbally warn you.
You were spamming with one line posts most of the time.
After that, I didn't see much changes in your posting style and I couldn't be bothered much since I have my real life out there.
In a way, I appreciate your reports though.

Let others see your posting style which I meant: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Sear...sult_type=posts

I hope the above clarifies.

Have a nice day.

seriously you are one bitter (and not to mention calculative) person.

i have carried out my fair share of helping LYN users as well (to the extend of driving out instead of helping remotely), but i have never thought of receiving any 'recognition' that you have just mentioned above.

your view/approach towards this matter is flawed

Been stuck with this count forever. Don't give a sh*t about the count anymore.

Anyway the counter is not working, as well remove it. Create less issue.

Still junior member here. LOL. Join since Nov 2004

You are pin point against me now... You just talking about spamming and never bother to appreciate my contribution at all.. If forumer say thank you to me? How you want me to answer? Can you have 2 sentence of "thank you" Ask yourself...

If you are sincere enough to help others, you will not expect a return favor don't you? Unless you have other things in mind, a reward perhaps?

I didnt want reward or favor... Because from beginning they never appreciate.. I just dont wish the post count to be disable, that is... Im debating on post count issue...

Look at the majority of the moderators's post count and you'll find the answer.

Ppl do not look at post count to see whether or not one is a contributor. Ok, maybe newbies does; but do ask around, a simple search is enough to know one's contribution.

Added on March 11, 2011, 10:15 pmaren't you contradicting yourself here?
You agree that you are not asking for rewards yet you want post count to show that you "contribute" a lot. Isn't that the same as asking for "reward" in another form?!

This post has been edited by b00n: Mar 11 2011, 10:15 PM

No I am not!! Ok fine then, I will remain silent.. As Admin/Staff are against my suggestion not to disable post count and you all cant accept it.. I do have my own forum and other website monitoring... But they are professional and not like this...

Chill bro
I see ur search result is quite impressive as u helped alot to deal and update their software. .
maybe i am not from the forum long enough, i dont deserve to talk but. . I think what he is trying to stress is why iPhone thread isnt the same like Blackberry
Why not disable both??


Fair ma. .

Sorry for not meeting your standard of professionalism.

But a point to note which I guessed you failed to see: we don't see that many senior contributors and elite complaining about "post count". Maybe they do not have such high standard as yours I presume.

Anyway, thanks for your contribution to LYN so far.

Wth???Bro dicksoonbell nver spamming lah,he helps a lot of people already,before this my knowladge BB is zero ,I learn a lot of things from him,

If post count doesn't mean much, why even bother to enable/disable?

For example, look at your signature.
There's already 2 "chat threads" in your signature. Although I do not understand the need to have those 2, which can be located at Liverpool thread in Football Section as well as in sports section.

There's too many chat threads in the sub sections, thus we have a general consensus to shut down post counts.

Damm lah not fair Iphone not disabled ,you all ah Apple Fag,Don't be such fanboy is fair if you disable the post count on all the thread,its not fair

Just a humble comment. Bro disksonbell has helped a lot in BB forum. Personally, do not think he is spamming. TQ.

yes... i'm agreed.. supposed need to disable count for all sub- section Mobile Phones and PDAs...
it's not fair... if iphone excluded....what special for that iphone sub-section...hahahhahaaa...........

That thread just want to gather LFC Fans to join my BBM group

Yes, and Manchester, Gunners etc.... threads. The purpose again?!.....
So you are saying all those in this topics deserved a post count? Or am I missing the point?

If everyone starts a topic on so-and-so BBM group, pls leave a message or PM me to join topic.....hhhhmmmm..... It just makes me wonder should we close it down.

Added on March 11, 2011, 11:18 pmbtw, if one doesn't know:
by clicking a profile, one can see where he contributed most:
eg, my profile:

Irfan:

dickson:


And that keeps increasing as you post in the section more.

And by comparing that, once can easily see that dickson contributed 95% of his posts in Blackberry section.
So tell, me...what's the use of post count again?!

This post has been edited by b00n: Mar 11 2011, 11:19 PM

so what's the fuss about post count?

to have a bigger e-pen0r to show off to juniors or newbie to show your superiority?

what a bollock..
who cares whether it is post count or not. look at other subforum. if they can live with it, I can't see why you guys can't

post count 9999999 doesn't mean you are a 1337 either

your post content does. So what if you are a 99999999 (i am 1337 very 1337 contributor) , but posting of <2" content?

Compare with 0 post count but 1337er than most of you guys which spams just to show your online e-pen0r

go take a nap, reply back when you have a more conscious mind instead of oh, why us, not they mentality.

ROLF, then why you guys have 2k and 7k post count if it is not important?? Mean you all spam on earlier days and get the RED TAG?? Now Im doing my contribution yet I dont deserved anything but being poke as spammer??? Ask yourself from beginning what you do and did before???

your this statement summarize all

I don't see any point of continuing "I WILL NEED TO WIN "contest of posting bragging right

Thread closed.

Let me re-highlight for others to see and judge:

So net result, you are still asking for something.

btw, like I mentioned; if you browse the moderator list and you see those "joined" much more earlier and look at their post counts. We do not award moderator tags just by looking at post count. Certainly, attitude counts a lot besides contribution. And I can assure you, seeing the attitude like yours here guessed the vote is against you.

Im agree with the 'mobiles phone subforums become a spamming place with 1-2 liner empty post. '

As for iphone subforum, i never been there as im not a ifag.

I myself found this 3 subforum android,blackberry and symbian being a place for post count hunter,some time when u are read those 1 line post,its kinda annoying because i have to scroll more

The truth is,there is many cases reported towards mobile phones subforum,thus i believed admins take this as a serious case and disable the post count on that sections.

Yes i agreed dicksonbell did help many users regarding blackberry issues, but sometime u quite annoying bro,trust me, many of my customers did complained about u

Honestly bro,u cant win against them,dont bother about the post count, just keep helping the user then good enough, if u are not happy here, u can focus on building ur own blackberry community website.

Seriously my intention by creating this thread is just for inquiries,not to debut, i dont expect it will become a debate place

last word,im apology by causing all this mess.
