Forum member "total cumulative posts"

Can someone tell me how the member "total cumulative posts" is calculated? I noticed I was on 91 posts yesterday and now I'm on 93 but I have posted 7 times today! Or is there a bug/delay in the software?

posts to miscellaneous categories are not counted

Total Cumulative Posts 83
( 0.7 posts per day / 0.06% of total forum posts )
Most active in Miscellaneous and Random Chat
( 64 posts / 23% of this member's active posts )

O.G. - I know that Misc dont count, but can anyone explain the above then, taken from my own profile.
So I have made 83 Total Cumulative Posts but I am most active in Misc (so they seem to be counted somewhere, for something).
Also, 64 posts is 23% of 278. So where does 83 TCP come from.

Q1 - Is TCP the posts (i.e. new topics) I have started?
Q2 If not what are they?
Q3 Is 278 the total number of posts I have contributed on ALL topics, or just those that are not Misc?
Q4 How can I tell the actual total posts I have ever made?
Q5 Why am I confused?

The total cumulative posts does not count posts in "Misc & Random".

The total shown under "most active in..." counts all posts, but only those that are in the forums that your account has permission to see. If you log out and look at your profile again you will probably see different figures there - because as a guest you can no longer see the "About Toytown" and "Misc & Random" forums. Of course, that depends on how many of your posts are in those forums.

The moderators and admins also see different figures - because we can see the admin forums where old and off-topic posts are moved to.

Something is wrong here!!! Atleast to me?

MRC posts don't count towards your total posts

Thanks Topsy!

Few days ago I noticed that the number of Total cumulative posts in my profile does not change although I wrote at least 5 more posts since then. Any idea why is that?
