#1 | | Recent Post count leader change Name: Steve City: Apex State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Jul 2005 Age: 65  02-17-2008, 01:04 PM
Advisor Founder First, it appears that this was simply a joke and not any real attempt to harm the site. And frankly, it was funny.  BUT, it raises several issues that I doubt the jokester thought about.
I am hoping that the change was made by one of the members and/or staff. Because then it was just a joke.
I really need to know who and how it was done. If there is a security hole, I need to close it. If the administrator tools were used, I need to make some changes in the permissions and/or policy.
Now before everyone gets upset, this is not a witch hunt. Remember this was probably intended as a mild joke
So, if the person(s) involved would send me and email, NOT a PM, using the email link in my profile and explain how it was done, I would appreciate it. There will NOT be any repercussions and I will be the only person who knows who was involved.
Thanks

Name: Trent Mason City: Wrightsville Beach State: NC County: New Hanover Join Date: Feb 2008 Age: 29 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.77 over 180 days | Re: Recent Post count leader change Yep, it cut my post count by about 40%.
Just a minor setback in my plan to overtake DaveO's post count by the year 2080.
Hope you all figure out what happened, and that it didn't affect anyone's discount thingy. 65 posts, hmmmm. seems like deja vu.

Rielly City: Fayetteville State: NC County: Cumberland Join Date: Dec 2005 Age: 64 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 1.09 over 180 days | Re: Recent Post count leader change It might have affected my post count,  but I am NOT in the running to see how many post I can get. Besides I couldn't catch Dave if I used the COPY/PASTE MODE on my computer. I just enjoy being able to be apart of this wonderful group  of Woodworkers. Now that's what counts!
