Well... while browsing some of the new forumrooms i noticed that some of the old users had several hundred posts already. As the new forums were presented today i figured that they had acquired their postcount in an unatural way.
If I remember right I had a grand total of 27 posts in the old forums and I would like to get my postcount transferred to the new. :D
Is this possible?
BTW: Great work with the new forums, I know vBulletin from other websites and it is a very big step forward from the old and often very unreliable forums. So good work.

I know i'm not an administrator, but no, you can't. Like the email that we all got said, the admin's can't move over anything from the old forums. This explains why we all have to re-register.
Sparks9,
This has been asked over on the old forums HERE (http://www.xsorbit1.com/users/dennx/index.cgi?board=thelounge&action=display&num=1051074150&start=20#25) and a possiblity that your post count can be transferred. But it is all down to Tom.

And, the criteria we decided on to determine eligibility for post count transfers can be found in this post of mine in that thread (http://www.xsorbit1.com/users/dennx/index.cgi?board=thelounge&action=display&num=1051074150&start=20#25).
Please note that this will be done on a trial basis. Thanks!

Ok... that means I dont qualify, well its not important anyway. :)
Unless I spam the old forums like crazy!!! :D :D :D
hmm ... methinks
new start = new post count
though it is a bit of a bummer that Xorb wont let you have any of the data over
