You know how you can see who posted in a certain thread by clicking the numbers under reply?? I was wondering if you can try to do the same with the whole forum?? Like the forum section.

(Ex:FF12)

BoB loves running forum stats. PM him about it. Lots.

Heh, I hadn't noticed that feature before. How long has that been there?

Pretty much all the time, as far as I know.

What would the point of that be? For the forums there'd be hundreds of names on practically every one, half of them being the exact same people for each forum.

So. Thats the beauty of it. People have different oppinions. But I thought It'd be a cool idea. Let the mods decide I guess...

Sounds like a good idea to me. I thrive on pointless stats.

As has already been suggested, pester BoB about it.

It think that feature uses a SELECT COUNT(*) GROUP BY query which is generally slow. Running a SQL query like that on a complete forum would be somewhat slow and probably not especially efficient.

However, it may be worth a try.

Yeah, stuff like that bogs down a database. Search queries are taxing enough.
