and another thing--Prof Greenspun, why does the "recent answers" decrement after a certain period of time?

I pay $60/mo for this forum and I expect it to act better than AOL!

The system only considers "new" answers to be within a seven-day timeframe (I think).

Thank you Patricia. That makes sense. I figured there was a time out. But why I say, why oh why? For $100/mo, I expect an accurate count forever.

Well, Your Devilship, you can probably make it happen. Don't you have some sort of "power" or something?

(And I see you're now paying $100/month; you might want to consider another ISP.)

No, the $150/mo goes directly to Greenspun. Doesn't everyone pay this amount?

Only $150? I'm getting screwed.
