    Ok, for the record, from those in the know.

    Do cafe posts currently count as beans or is it just the support forums now?

    I think it has been changed to the latter, I think my bean count is no longer incrementing.

    Thanks in advance.

    My understanding is that they didn't count for the longest time. Then, a few months ago, they started counting again. Finally, recently (within the last week or so), they stopped counting again.

    That's my understanding of it.

    Thanks aysiu - that appears to be what's happening - I guess my bean count will increment more slowly from now on. I seem to spend far too much time posting to the cafe, compared to the other forums!

    No worries. No one's going to measure your worth as a person by how many beans you have.

    I'm reasonably sure that posts count everywhere except the backyard, the cafe and the jail.
    Every time you install Jaunty, a kitten........ wait sorry what year is this again?

    Ever since learning that I don't know as much as I think I do about Ubuntu, I seem to spend way more time posting in the Cafe and the backyard, but my bean count keeps going up. I think that is a good thing, because one of the signs of a troll is a low bean count, from what I have read. Not that the bean count really means anything...

    -edit-
    I guess it doesn't anymore...

    i like the bean count, especially the labels and icons
    its a fun way to know who spends alot of time in the forum and who doesn't

    can the cafe posts still increase our label, even though the actual # will not increase?
