Weird - lost posts?

Hey all;

I'm a new member. I joined a couple of days ago.

Having just spent the entire night answering posts and reading loads of stuff on DP, (great site BTW), my post count was heading up towards 25 posts.

Yet when I made a post a few moments ago, my post count was dropped back down to 3 or 4?

I don't think any of my "verbose" posts could be construed as spam or post-count bait, so I was wondering if you could shed some light for me?

I would appreciate it.

Thank you.
