It now says 'Newbie', so someone's faffing with something!

Re: what has happened to the ranking here

I think there might be some kind of delay... not sure why. I saw a new user create two posts earlier and their profile had 'messages posted: 0' but i could clearly see there was two posts in their feed. Checked back a few minutes later and their post count was registering.

Re: what has happened to the ranking here

This will need to raised as a support ticket with Lithium to investigate as I can't tell why the numbers would be different.

@LouisaMartin, can you please raise this with Lithium? I will update our internal big tracker.

Same. But now as an admin it says they have 3 posts. Opened a new private browsing session and (as an anonymous, not logged in user) it shows up as having 7 posts. Louisa is just raising this with lithium now to investigate whats going on.

Re: what has happened to the ranking here

Could this be an issue with load balancing or replication of the hosts?

Re: what has happened to the ranking here

That would explain the slight delay if the load balancer is waiting to sync between each other.

I will wait for a response from Lithium and see whats going on.

edit:  Overlap with @jaread83 reply.

This has been raised several times previously in relation to other 'oddities' but so far no response or 'fix' from lithium.  It must remain a high possibilty candidate and in need of some serious investigation. 

Any clues as to just what lithium are actively investigating on behalf of Plusnet?

We have a full internal list of things being looked at but this list is for internal use only and we cannot currently show this list on a public forum.

Re: what has happened to the ranking here

We have got a response from Lithium about the ranking issue and it looks like there was a problem with the formula used for the very first rank and it would happen after registration. The first rank requires 1 login but after registering that first login after completing the form does not count. The users that were spotted as have N/A as their rank had simply just stayed logged in after registering. I checked those users that were pointed out and they have since signed in again thus gaining the rank.

I have adjusted the rank to not require the formula so after a user registers they will automatically be assigned the 'just looking' rank.

If you spot any new users with the N/A rank that registered on or after 21/07/2016, please let me know and I will look into this further.

Thanks for the feedback on this guys, I do appreciate it.
