FYI for those who don't get how to get the numbers.
To get the numbers:
1) Goto your profile (click profile)
2) Take a note on your "Posts" number.
3) At the bottom of the page click "Show the last posts of this person".
4) Navigate to the last page and note the number
5) Do the math.
For example, right now my Posts says 6007, the number on the last thread is 6017.
Now, for normal users this makes sense if something they posted when to post hell. I don't think the posts number counts the forums you can't see. It might though... I should create a temp user and try this out...
