Thanks for your outpouring of support, guys. :)
So was Krisper's comment about a way to restore my posts a legitimate possibility?

Thankfully all of your posts are still here, your history is intact even if they are now logged as Champiness the Guest - Thank God it's not quite like the anType situation a few years ago, where his account and thousands of posts associated with it were eradicated due to a major administrative oopsie. But I don't know if your post count can be restored, Champi. If it can be, it's beyond my scope of capabilities.
be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

I fear that IguanaPunks reply is probably going to be the case.

Pretty sure the only way to do it is to directly access the database, find one of your old posts, pull the member_id off that, find your new membership and change the id to the old one. A moderator is not going to be able to do that. It will involve someone with full server access. I have done quite a bit with forums before and could do this in minutes if given access, but I doubt that is going to happen.
Further Remixed There's nothing else...

If all else fails, we can create a "Help Champi" thread and have lots of conversations with Champiness to boost his post count back up to 800, or whatever it was. :razz:

Haha, is this some elaborate ploy to take control of the site? :roll:

No elaborate ploy. I wouldn't want control of the site, but it is frustrating to see problems that could be easily fixed, there seems to be no one around who has the access required to do it.

Don't know about rock, but I could fix some of the problems.

I'd say that's the person who set up this forum in the first place. I reckon they could fix it.

I don't know if it's because I have a lot of posts, but there seems to be a lot less emphasis on how many posts people have these days, unlike the old days which was like it showed a level of your Internet respect. Pathetic, but we all did it.

I don't want to be rude but who cares about how many post Champiness has/had?

Are you proud of that little number?

I don't get it :geek:

The reason I ask is because I think it's an age thing. When we first started on the Internet, post counts seemed to matter to most people. It's stupid I know, but the Internet was young then and we were still finding our feet.

Maybe it's because he's brought vitality and personality to this forum just like everyone else. Therefore, he has a right to be concerned about his own post count, whether we care or not ( and if he doesn't get his posts back, he can have mine!) :cool:

or

we could all have everyone's post count back to zero!

Also, it gives me the ability to go back and edit my posts, and gives the "face" of my avatar to a bunch of currently gray "guest" posts.
