    This some feedback on the "statistics" section in the boards.ie dropdown menu at the top of the page.

    Would it be possible to see stats for the most thanked posts? I'm not sure if this is possible with vBulletin, but it would be good to see the top 5 thanked posts if it can be done.

    It might also be a good idea to see the top 5 thanked posters. And maybe even the top 5 posters who give the most thanks.





    And one final thing ... would it be possible to have a top 10 instead of a top 5 for all the sections in the stats section?

    I think this was available at one stage but was removed due to "thanks whoring".

    I believe it was removed when thanking a post became known as a Sherifu.

    1000 is nowhere near as thanks-whorey as 1600. And the only reason I asked is because I'm looking for tips. :D

    No idea tbh! It seems to have gone up dramatically in the last while. Suppose I must be making valued contributions, though what they are is anyone's guess!

    Are you questioning my ability to count? :p

    That sounds like a lot of effort. I'll trade you a few forums for some of your thanks.

    For decencies sake there should be a "you're welcome!" button, which would be the real badge of honour.

    The question might be why are statistics more important to some than others ?

    The real question is why are statistics only important to 31% of people?
