I think that I also had something close to 200 posts. And to think I was wondering what I was going to use as an avatar, guess I don't have to worry about that for a while.

I don't like this n00b feeling again. It's like being dropped back to freshman year in high school when you're halfway through college.

the old post counts are lost forever, right?
there's no way to verify how many someone had, right?

Then i had a billion posts. Now i have, like, 5.

Such is life!

Post counts don't change who you are, and caring about them doesn't make you any better. I suppose it's just a neat perk for participation.

Interesting is in the eye of the beholder. As long as you post something that has some thought behind it you will find that people are interested in what you have to say.
In some ways I like being a noob again. The avatar was never the most important part to me. Having a fresh start for everyone can be a good thing some times.

i'm just glad to see that the TFP is back up and alive again. I was more proud of my six months then of anything else, having just over 100 or so posts... anyways, i'm glad to be back!

Starting all over again for the fourth time.
Empty feeling as 3000 goes by the wasteside but TFP has gotten better ever time around. So having seen versions 1,2,3 and now 4 I look forward to building a better home with my bros and sisters. TFP 4 ever.

Never a doubt that Hal is the man.....

Sorry, but I'm still getting the gist of what this community is all about. I probably only had a handful of posts before the place had it's trouble. However, I was a little sad when I tried to venture here and everything was lost. However, that helped me to discover the IRC channel, and I found a whole new place. Maybe in time I'll find my niche.

The worst part of this ' starting over ' process is what was lost in many hours of contributions over the past year.

I was just starting to explore TFP when it borked -- I like that everyone here is so polite and can write in complete sentences. For the most part.
I'm amazed at how prolific some of you guys are. Don't you have jobs to go to?
I doubt that I'll ever be in the top 100 posters, but I enjoy reading the forums and hope to contribute in some small, perhaps irrelevant manner.

i don't mind losing post counts nearly as much as i do the loss of everyone's awesome posts. there's was always something cool at tfp, no matter how many times i went back, and its sad to think that all those contributions are gone now

man, i was a n00b on v.3 and now, still a n00b on v.4 -- reminds me of Monty Python's Holy Graill, when John Cleese is running up the hill to the castle, and every time he's almost there, he gets reset to the bottom of the hill. I now feel his pain...

Does everyone derive their validity as a person from their post count? Don't make no sense. If you have something worthwhile to say it shouldn't matter if you're a total rookie.
