I don't think Mickie looks suspicious. They're user number 390, for one thing.
Not sure if this is where I should ask, but here goes anyway:
How do I search for how many times I've posted?

You can find that by going here and searching for posts with your user name. (You've made 2866 posts so far.)

Thank you, wise ones.
Randomly, my delete or backspace key has stopped working in the posting box. If I resize my browser window, it usually works again. Usually this is accompainied by a flicking of the posting box.

Sounds like a browser issue. Have you tried going to other websites with text boxes and seeing what happens there?
I'd really like to know why it's not being very random.
Is it possible that there's no lower limit to the randomization? What I mean by that is that I once set up a random number generator that generated values from 0 to MAX, then forgot and numbered my records from 10 to MAX, with the result that record 10 got selected a lot more than any of the others, because it would show up for values of 1 - 9, as well as 10.

Yeah, Mickie was one of the very first newbies that signed on when Joss first showed up, although she's only posted twice, and only in TTT.
edit: Whoa, speaking of record numbers...

Thing is, I think there's only been two different amounts of quotes. Of course, we can't pinpoint the date of stickiness, but I lean towards maybe a MySQL upgrade that changed an algorithm that's peeing in our ointment.
