I have 17507 comments that are not on article threads, and not my main wall posts.
17000, seventeen thousand, comments unaccounted for, hiding on other peoples walls and in the comments sections of my own posts. That’s more than anyone else has total comments. What the crivens is wrong with me.
Mmmm so there are 20 posts to each page of fanwall, and 50 to each page of comments.
You can see the total number of comment pages you have down the bottom of your comments tag.
However, for both fanwall and comments, the last page has up to or less than 50 or 20 respectively.
So to calculate the total number of article comments is (c-1) x 50 + n, where c is the total page number and n the number of comments on the final page.
You can work out your total fanwall page number with a little bit of sneaky url editing, and then just sort of picking a page number and working up or down till you hit your total.
(Mine is 134 for example).
Same formula applies for total fanwall post calculation: (f-1) x 20 + n, where f is the total number of fanwall pages, and n the number of posts on the final page.
Add those two totals together, subtract from your TOTAL comment count on your little stats bar, and voila: number of comments remaining.
Thus for me (as of when I calculated this, which was before this post):
133×20+13=2673 fanwall posts
60×50+4=3004 article comments
= 5627
23134- 5627 = 17507.
I worked out that if I comment an average of 5 times on each of my wall posts, that’s about 13000 comments in of itself, leaving about 4k for other people’s walls, which is probably, about right to be honest. Obviously, I’m just guessing that average- I know some of my own threads I comment up to 20 or 50 times, and some none at all.

What do you mean by “wrong”? What’s wrong with being a prolific and passionate writer, essayist, sh*tposter?

You’re right, absolutely nothing. (It’s still stupidly a lot though)

I admit I was talking from a selfish perspective!
