Is this keep happening to you also? When i complete posting the message the number of messages in the bracket beside my name changes, but then the next day, it decreases by 5 and then increases by i, Somehow, effectively the number of posted messages is decreasing.

Try responding to useful, informative discussions. The reason they are decreasing is because as messeges get deleted, so do your credit for the contribution in that discussion.
