Klass 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2005 Well just a guess but you posted back to back here: http://forums.xisto.com/topic/23114-zonealarm-firewall-bugged-bug-in-zonealarm-causes-50000-pc-to-crash/with 5, 10, 15 minutes apart. Which is not a good thing but it does happen, when it does you could kindly notify a mod to have your posts merged.But this is just a guess so maybe an admin can help us out!

cse-icons 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2005 Hi Varun,When your hosting/upgrade request gets accepted, all your accumulated points are reset to a low figure (3 or 4, dont remember exact number).So even if you have 200 points or 30 points it would get reset to the same.This is done so that a user does not stay inactive after getting hosting...This info is also available in many other posts in the hosted area forum.Admins, Mods : correct me if I am wrong....Cheers.

Your post also i had missed, it was just that while i was repling to "cse-icons" i saw the post. But i am for the idea ... please let me know whom do i contact for the same ? Or can we merge the posts on our own specially the topics that we create on our own ? We should be having more privileges there. I have worked on a couple of forums for websites ... but have not been into posting ... just developing. Such kind of features have always been there. Will anyways take caution in the future ... thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
