Sorry for these useless quick questions. What exactly is the difference? Cause my Active posts (profile) are 145 and my Posts are 118? I'v checked other profiles, some were the same some not...

Maybe it has something to do with locked threads? Perhaps a lock thread makes any post's within become 'in-active'. Of course this is all speculation, I don't actually know.
Active Posts are posts that IP.Board still views as being responded to.
(IP.Board is the software that runs the forum, fyi.)
Active posts are supposed to be all of your posts in the forum, and on DiabloFans that will always be lower than your post count since any post made in the Off Topic forum do not count.
However, comparing these numbers for myself generated some strange errors. I have 105 posts in Off Topic, but the discrepancy between my Active Posts and Post Count is only 91. After some Google digging, I think that can be explained by the forum move we did some years ago from vbulletin to IPB. From what I can tell, IPB doesn't count deleted posts correctly during such conversions. It may also be that posts deleted after the move don't affect the Active Posts correctly. But in essence it should give you an idea of how many Off Topic posts you've made.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Well, considering the countless server changes, the domain change (Wasn't there another domain change somewhere around '05?), and the change in the software the forum runs on, I'm surprised that the discrepancy isn't worse.
