    I posted once in that "Post race" and now everytime I come to VB-World forums I instantly get a note about new post in the post race.

    Right, everybody: LET'S SPAM THE POST RACE!!!

    I do feel sorry for you, though...(trying, anyway)

    I agree

    Typical scenario at work :

    sat at my desk, doing some work and getting bored of documentation.

    Then - An e-mail ! Wow, must be interesting so stop all work and open up the mail -

    "S**t, it's that f***ing post race again" reverberates around the office followed by one of those stunned silences as everyone turns and looks at the person who swore ( me ).

    " sorry..."

    Disappear to the coffee machine.
    That's Mr Mullet to you, you mulletless wonder.

    Hehe, Megatron, did you notice, if you delete posts in either Feedback or Chit Chat forums, your posts go down? And everyone, well, almost everyone posted at least 10 things in there. So if CyberSurfer were to delete that, everyone would lose a lot of posts, lol. Everyone will lose posts, even if CyberSurfer deletes the thread.

    Everyone be nice to CyberSurfer, you never know what he could do .

    I don't think John or James knows how to fix the problem either.

    My, aren't I the powerful one!

    Seriously though, I have pondered locking the postrace thread due to this post. What d'yall think?

    BTW parksie...How th'hell can you spam the post race? It's full of rubbish anyway!

    If a lot of people want the post race locked, I will do so, but for the aforementioned reasons I won't delete it.

    Please post your feedback here.

    I know how to fix the problem... and john is a MUCH better PHP programmer than me, so, that means he is being lazy

    all you have to do in the editpost.php page, is add a simple if statement....

    if the forumid is not equal to 6 or 7 then decrease the users post count..

    and thats it......

    My Outlook Inbox is full of rubbish, but that doesn't stop me getting Viagra adverts (or even the herbal alternative ).
