This is one I'm partly responsible for. The HTML hack that Scott installed has a bug in it. When I update a profile in the Control Panel, it causes this error.
Gary, I think this is fixed while leaving the HTML accessible to the Admins. Let me know if it starts acting up again.
Thanks, Scott! It was no real biggie for me. Just surprised me.

Gary & Scott: I just noticed that the post counts for a number of LW posters have suddenly disappeared (including yours, Gary, and Lash, and Harbinger and many others) Mine is still there at the moment and so are Icy's KP, STU so it seems to be random.

The post totals under each message seem to have remained but the Top 5 list in the directory and the toals in the community directory appear to be affected.

I'm not seeing any problems right now. Either someone was playing with turning off post counts or there was some glitch along the line. I'll keep my eye on things tonight as much as I can.

Whoa! I'm in the Top 5! Weird to see my name there.
It looks like those people who had an even number of posts at the time whatever happened happened, were able to keep their post counts, whereas those with an odd number of posts lost theirs. Really.

In talking the V some more I think I've nailed the problem. I don't know if it really is a problem or just a fact of the operating software but if you are not on-line or not visible to those on-line your post count does not show, in the directory only. All post counts are visible in any thread a poster has posted in at all times. Whether they are logged in or not.
Like I said, I don't know if this is a quirk of the software, a feature that is in use or just another UBB hiccup. But it will not affect the true post count.

To clarify a bit for those who have noticed the post counts in the directory before.
This has happened in the past but has not affected the true post totals. It is a quirk or something in the UBB. When we starting seeing the post counts disappear from actual threads or post totals rolling backwards in the threads, then we have a problem.
Later tonight or early in the morning when I get to work, I'll shut down the board for a few minutes and rebuild the member files to see if that helps.
And thanks to Vee, Icey and everyone else watching out for us. Brings a warm glow to my heart to see you all care.

If you don't mind, I'd like to report a REAL problem: some idiot's spamming a thread in the MMB with pics of a fat kid molesting two frogs! How can you allow such filth?!
Oh, wait... that was ME...
