Re: New Forum Layout
A couple issues with the reason you'd like them back: Post #'s were never consistent for people... and worse than that, they could be changed! *Wink*

For example(s): If you and I have different people ignored that post in a forum. What might be 100 for you could be 80 for me because I don't see Joe Smith's posts and you do. If someone posts in the forum and they're blocking Mary Lou, then Mary Lou won't see her posts and she'll have yet another different count!

And then if Paul Thompson deletes his account, automatically the post numbers shown on the forum listing shift to account for his account being gone. We don't show non-existent user posts in a forum listing. So what was 100 for you and 80 for me is now 96 for you and 76 for me.

I know sometime change is poo... but it's really for the best that those numbers are gone.


Best,
~~SM
