    I miss the view and reply stats for the threads on the bulletin board

    I miss the views and reply stats for the threads on the bulletin board.
    I like to know how popular threads are and I like to compare the replies to views.
    I also like to know how many views the threads I started and/or posted on have had.

    Can they be included again or are they gone for ever?

    I hope they can and will be resurrected in the near future.

    OK, now I get it.
    The stats are in the individual thread category's, not on the main bulletin board.
    Thanks!

    To the best of my recollection, those stats used to be on the bulletin board itself.
    That's the main reason I did not notice it on the individual thread category/s after going to it/them.

    Personally I think that the "stats" should be on the bulletin (main) board itself, the individual thread categories, and the recent posts section as well.

    To clarify what I meant in the beginning of this thread topic: I miss going to the main bulletin board section when it displayed all the stats for all of the posts that the main bulletin board section had on it.
    When the stats were all on the "main" bulletin board page it was a lot easier (actually made it possible for me) to keep track of the stats and make posting and popularity comparisons using it instead of having to go to each individual thread.
    Having to go to each individual thread renders it (for me) pretty much impossible to do the same kind comparing as I used to do. That's what I actually miss doing.

    Sometimes I like to go back to old threads, and do some statistic comparisons. I guess I can still do that on the individual category. However, it would be nice to be able to use previous (archived) main bulletin board page/s with the stats on instead of having to hunt down the individual thread categories to do the statistical comparisons.

    The only change on the category home page was changing from the total number of threads in the category to the total number of posts in a category:

    To:


    The information display on the category display (list of threads within a category - for instance what you get when you click on General Community) has not changed. It's just formatted a bit differently:




    and the new version:


    What is different and what you question is really about, I think is the New Posts (now call Recent Posts) display.
    Yes, in fact the views and replies stats off the returned threads are missing! We'll fix that soon! No data has been lost...
