Yes all three of those, and highest threads to posts ratio
(postcount >= 10).

Also, all moderators.

I don't have anyone on my ignore list. (Yet.)
I find it quiet nice to glance at CMDs posts. Kinda like opening a fortune cookie and finding the printer was faulty again. (Not that I've ever even seen a fortune cookie.)

I don't see how Thread-to-post-ratio stats could tell us anything useful.

While we're reporting statistics, how about posts per letter-of-username?

Following Retina's format:

Number of threads started: 20
Number of posts: 680 (including this one)
Number of PMs sent: 78
Number of PMs received: 67
Number of people on ignore list: 0
Number of people ignoring me: Unknown.

Number of days a member: 1197

I do not see any reason to add people to an ignore list. It is easy enough to skip over uninteresting posts, but if you ignore someone, you'll never see if they post something interesting.

Personally I would prefer to have the number of posts displayed as it was before, but hey, it ain't my forum. If there is enough interest by various members about a quick way to check the quality of a users posts, then perhaps it would be worth installing a ratings system. There are many such available for vBulletin. I'm ambivalent about it, for what benefits it brings there are associated negatives, the truth, I have heard, hurts.

Referring to the OP, here's the gist of my suggestion:

Say with a Post count at least ten?

Then we can do the math.

Don't overwork the gremlins!

And keep some of us more informed.

OK?

It might also be interesting to know which members have the most people on their ignore list.

idea to me.

See OP.

That's our discussion of the OP so far, at least
according to the OPer.
