One-Size-Fits-All Gen Disc Stats

How sure are you of the accuracy? I sometimes look at a member's profile to search for all their posts and it often shows me a much smaller amount of posts than the number underneath their avatar shows.......

Case in point: I hit the 'find all posts by dANdeLION' and it gives me "Search found 8148 matches"!

The search function has it's limits unfortunately. And there's no real way to overcome them. You can get a better idea by searching for posts by an author in a specific forum, rather than "find all posts."

If it's your own stats you're interested in, you can see them all by clicking on your profile link and scrolling down. Shows posts per forum, etc.

Yeah, I'm bound by the limits of the search function. That was why I could not give Av's or Cail's exact post count for the Tank, because their numbers exceeded the search function's number range. Obviously I couldn't log on as them to check the numbers in their profiles.

And yes, I do sometimes worry about the accuracy of the numbers, aside from the problem above. If the KW database gets corrupted, then all bets are off.
