Can't find those stats on this new site.

The location hasn't changed, it's lower right "Members". Click the heading "posts" to sort by posts.

Stats for individual members are on their profile.

I had mentioned the weather playing a role in stats, this graph of how many referals I'm getting from Google. I've redacted the actual numbers. The start of the graph was that unusually warm weather, that little bump you see mid month is that little cold snap we had. The last point with that upward trajectory is from Tuesday.

On the old site, last time I checked the member posting stats, Fred held the record for the most total posts by quite a large margin.

At four years I'm more of a newbie, but, I beat him out for highest daily average. Must be a CNY thing.

Can't find those stats on this new site.

Back in the day we had an entire page devoted to usless statistics. I really loved that page.

You & me both CS--I've always been real big on useless statistics!!! LOL Plus add onto the story--useless words, etc. Not so now that we've matured.

Congrats Rob!
I to would probably never have gone the stoker boiler rout if it was not for this forum and the knowledgeable people on it.
Now, it seems like I install a different boiler about every 6 months just for the fun of it! (I must be completely insane).

Christ,what a thread...... As a short timer here,I've seen a bundle come,and unfortunately,go. I miss alot of 'em. Sure,We've had alot of "One and Done's",Christmas Heating Dilemma Artists,and Others who are in Emergency No-Heat Status,Yet never to be heard from again.....

We've attracted All Kinds. Hell,this Place even took in a Knuckledragger like me. I think the True Pleasure for me has been the Amazing Good Souls that I've known through 'Dis Here Coal Board......

Rob,I'm glad You took the time to slap this one up. It needed to be noted,it needed to be said.

Conflatulations on the Decade,Mister ! Oh,yeah,I almost forgot,I'm still glad You're in Chazy,and still driving Your rear-end off so that Your Family's still Living in the A-OK Zone ! Hat's off !

Today marks 10 years since I joined the online coal burning community. A few thoughts:

In the 10 years I have been burning coal, the price has remained relatively constant, but the availability in my area is much better. I hope that trend continues.

This is a good post, but I wonder did you start the forum and if you did why?

Just remember Paul, I was laid up/ homebound for over a year with WAY to many gut surgeries--which might I add, you guys got me through that!! --anyway, posts sure do add up even when you're not havin that much fun. ----Go to your profile Paul--numbers are there. You have 13,260

Fred. Yeah, good thing that didn't turn into a need for carpal tunnel surgery.

No problem finding the total post numbers, It's right under our screen names.

What I meant was that, ...... In the old site's members listing section there was a tab that would change the order of the listing to the total number of posts of each member - with the member with the highest posts number being first - which was you - down to the members with the least. If I remember right, it also showed the daily average of posts. Which was me, then I think Lee was second, and surprisingly, you with your very high total weren't at the top of that list.

What a bunch of yackers we are.

It also showed age which I guess the Mayor don't find important but it helped figurin where a persons head space might be--nothing negative or positive--just kind of a measuring tape for experiential kind of stuff. Oh well.

I did not start it, Richard did. I joined to learn more about burning coal.

You mean this?

It is still there. You just go to the forum index page and click on the "members" link at the bottom. Fred is still #1 in post count. I could have a lot more if I participated in the political discussions.

Thanks Rob,

Yes, I've been to that page, but when I went to it, the names were not in order of post count, but in order of date of joining. And I didn't see any tab to click to change it like the old site had.

And I think there was a listing of post average per day ??????

How'd you get it to show the order of post counts ?

Paul

Just click on the "posts" column header.
