The counter is working fine, I've deleted some of your posts as they're paving a pattern all too familiar on the forum. Short post content and rapid posting over a very short time span, this together with the typical content in your posts is sending the wrong impressions to me. Your intro post was deleted as it was simply a self promotion post and not in the fairly broad acceptance of posts expected in the Intro forum. Should you wish to repost an Intro please read our guidelines which can be found here. http://www.ukbusinessforums.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=8884

Its all to do with perception ... some post at the start just for the sake of it, short replies that dont actually mean anything or welcome everyone that joined the day before they did. Basically just join in and help out, gets your name known and we find out a little about you etc and it makes you all the more appealing when we need to go find some expertise in your field etc.
