Why do banned posters...
...not appear in the members list?

I thought they did. I remember seeing YYYH's name when I was browing through the list a few months ago. Maybe it was changed.

Look for Alexanders Horse.

I was looking at the top 20 posters and he wasn't there.

That is correct... banned posters don't show up because they aren't active members

Why is Fez banned?

And why hasn't Horsie been pestering us at CG if he is banned here?

Maybe you should ask Fez for the reason. He'll know it.

Never looked through the posters list until now. One thing that strikes me is that there is a huge difference in the post counts of members generally before and after the OT posts counted.

Trip has actually reached emperor with just on topic posts..........and I expect he would be considerably higher if there was a way to see the effect of removing OT posts that counted from other long time members.

So did I . In the time off-topic posts counted, I made 11 (I think) posts there.

Out of interest do the PTB's have a breakdown of posts by forum? If it was easy to examine might be worth doing.

It's not needed in a public forum.

We keep a list in the private forum

just leave the post counts be!

taking the new OT posts hurts enough, taking the old ones too is just cruelty to animals!

Don't worry... THERE is no record of which posts are made where, so even if somebody wanted to do something like that, it can't happen

Markos, would you ban Ming if he would break the laws, like doing enormous evil things like putting a funny title next to his name through a silly flag-field loophole?

He can change the titles directly through the database.
Besides, who would be silly enough to exploit a loophole like that?

Yeah but I can't see Ming bringing such a fate upon himself..........besides what's a few more 1000's of posts (or a fancy title) when you have like a bazillion already.

Yes... moderators aren't above the law. It has happened before, and I've threatened one recently If you break the rules...

*however, MarkG and DanQ can do ANYTHING they want*

Maybe but you'd have to start a thread questioning the ancestry of both to get banned I think.......who else would sift through all those threads every day?
