Question for the Mods - WHY are post counts now hidden?
I don't like to post for the sake of it but like to know the ratio of likes to posts, as I am sure most of us do, for simple reasons of validation of our contributions.
If they are hidden, is there a means to look up ones own?
Thanks, Daver

Heck, I've never even looked for a "likes" tally, I didn't even know there was one.
As for post counts, well... we decided that post count was a distraction, kind of a brass ring that we didn't think people needed to reach for. So we nixed it, it was a forum aspect we wanted to remove.
Does your own personal post count not show up now if you look at your personal Profile? it does for me, but as an Administrator, I still see post counts.

Just ran through my profile and no, I cannot see how many posts I have made. Long way to go to the 1000 club by a long stretch and not aiming for any tally, just nice to know my level of engagement. I only post if I have something constructive to say and avoid blithe 'yeh/nah' replies for the sake of it, so It's a little but like checking ones word count when writing up essays, reviews, etc. Just human nature really.

lol, I'd offer to tell you what your post count was at, but if I did so, it might result in an avalanche of such requests, and I'm not really wanting to deal with that.

It should be the 1000 Likes Club now that post counts are hidden! For the record, likes don't correlate to post counts.

Anyone can post 1000 posts, but not everyone can have 1000 likes... well unless they go around liking their own posts.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Er...alright? So the hiding of post count is deliberate? It is, but what does that have to do with the 1000 club announcements? Someone else used to make these announcements and stopped. One day I noticed several people had made Doctor status without being recognized, so I check every couple days to see if someone else has made Doctor status. It's possible to see someone's rank even without the post counts.
