I guess I'm somewhat confused -- why is my Solved Threads nearly twice as Narue's even though she has been around longer than I have and has nearly as many posts as I have. ~S.~O~S is similar -- more posts than I have but half the Solved Threads. Am I over-rated or are they under-rated?

And Dima: I do occasionally mark some threads solved when I am pretty sure they OP has indicated the problem is solved. It doesn't happen very often, maybe a couple times a week at most.

Do you have a tendancy to mark threads as solved yourself? As a moderator, you have that ability, and that would skew the results in your favor.

The thing is that you can go into everyone's member profiles and click the link next to where it says Solved Threads to actually see where this number is coming from. Should you choose to investigate that, you can probably come to some conclusion regarding the types of threads Narue replies to that get solved and the types of threads that you reply to that get solved.

I like the solved threads count. But maybe as a compromise the moderators/administrators of daniweb could have this info removed from their profiles? After all, they are moderators so we all know how good they are

A couple times a week for a year can certainly account for an extra 200 solved threads!

I don't believe this will allow for users to inflate their solved threads count since you were only able to do this since you're a mod.

cscgal I noticed your post count dropped by ~1500. How come?

A behind the scenes change has been made where posts made in staff-only forums no longer count towards the post count of us moderators.

ooooooooo soon i will overtake dani

does rep count in there?

The staff forums are hidden within the Coffee House, just like Area 51. Rep doesn't count anywhere in the Coffee House and neither do Solved Threads.

cool. is area 51 any good?
