Thank you I did read it I just did not know how to track how many post I had within the past 6 moths.
Near the top of this page is a menu bar with "User CP", "Chat", "FAQ", etc. Look for "Search" over towards the right and click on that. In the little drop down box that appears click on "Advanced Search".
When the Search page loads, starting on the left side of that page select the following options:
in the "Find Posts from" area, select "6 months ago" in the drop down.
in the "Show Results as" area, select the "Posts" radio button.
Over on the right side:
in the "Search by User Name" area, enter your User name in full.
make sure "Find Posts by User" appears in the drop down below the user name box.
in "Search in Forum(s)": Select "Search All Open Forums"; Make sure the "Also search in child forums" is checked.
Click the "Search Now" button.
When the search results load, over on the right just below the horizontal display of result page numbers you will see "Showing results 1 to xx of xxx". That final number is your total post count over 6 months.
If some of those posts are on the Rent/Trade board you would have to subtract those from your total.
