just wondering whether old user statistics were going to be used for members, as a while ago on forums.suselinuxsupport.de it was said old user stats (like post counts etc) would be kept. just wondering if this was the case or not. if not no worries…just wondering 
No, they will not. We tried to port them over during the merger, but were unable to do so due to time and resource constraints. You will need to re-update your profile, and unfortunately, your postcount will start from 0.
blimey that was one quick reply! 
thanks for letting me know, no worries of course, i don’t mind starting from scratch.
take care, and again well done for doing such a good job on the merge.

You know, I hear that some say that your voice can only be heard by cats,
and that you’ve been banned from the city of Chichester. Is this
true?

I wouldn’t have guessed that. Mechanical, yes, but hydraulics are just
too iffy. Well, at least they are if they’re acquired from the
scrapheap.

Can’t wait for the next series. With any luck, though, they won’t mess
up the traffic again by taking over southern counties radio during rush
hour.
