I used to be a regular visitor and poster back when I was playing 6thEd WHFB. I came back recently, made a few posts, and saw that my post count was showing me as a fresh n00b. What gives? Is there no respect for the elders anymore?

If you haven't posted since 6th ed, it would be because the board has been through several software changes since then. User accounts have ported over from one to the next, but in several of the shifts post counts were reset.

If you were a regular then people will remember you, it doesn't really matter what your account looks like in that respect so don't worry about it.

OK, thanks for the replies. I just hate seeing "fresh-faced New User" there. I swung back by to post looking for support of a friend's kickstarter game (which barely succeeded, yay!), and it made me look like just a common spammer, which was a bit depressing.

So how has the newest edition treated my Beastmen?

I don't know about your Beastmen shenanigans but if you upgrade to DCM you can have any title you want. Maybe: 'I used to have loads of posts'.
