It's not a lie.
Then it's the half truth. He gets his posts merged as I've said, but we can't consider those deleted... The content of those posts still exists. I was referring to those that have been removed for good.
the stats noted in a earlier post of my deleted messages.. do not refer to a word count (your suggestion of messages not removed).. they refer to posts deleted. POST count not word count
when i make 4 posts in a topic and 3 get merged into the first. it counts as 3 deleted posts..
it does not count as 0 posts deleted and 0+- word count changes (your silly thinking)
