Glad to know it isn't a result of archiving or some other type of routine site maintenance. There's lots of message boards where post counts range into the thousands and archived messages do not detract from the user's status.
This still sucks, though. I hope it can be repaired.
Newbies can get a good sense of who has been around for a long time with accurate post counts.
And quite frankly, it was cool to see my own contributions accumulate. It felt like being a part of a community and I enjoyed the little proclamation which said I have been an active member and supporter of the site and it's patrons.
I also wanted to do something sort of special for Post 1,000."
Bummer.
