I created the most new posts 2 months in a row now… I should go hide in a corner in shame for having to ask so many questions.

Hi
I guess you can blame the snow rather than the rain this time?

BTW, what does the 19 mean?

Thanks for the info Kim :slight_smile:

Good rep points I think?!

I don’t have 17 Good rep points. :slight_smile:

7

OK. I don’t know then.

Kim. Explain it to us. :X

8

My guess is that it shows the number of forums-subforums where we posted in January.

9

Dang, I knew I spend too much time here. :slight_smile:

10

Exactly. It’s the number of forums you participate in. It’s nice to see if someone focuses on one area or spews forth all over. :quiet:

11

Why? Is it bad? Actually I’m always starting with the New Posts search - so I’m really not focusing to the categories, except the Application and Games.

12

Same here Ram88.
New posts and specifically those with no replies, although first thing is always Control Panel to go through subscribed threads.

13

I mostly do the same, although more than “New Posts” I tend to go to “search” > “advanced search” and search on “Sound” or on “audio” or on “headphone” or on “headset” or on “mic” and I try to maintain my focus for support there, trying to help users with very basic sound functionality.

Sometimes I might try help with an NTFS write problem.

And occasionally I won’t be able to resist the urge to have fun in the soapbox area. :slight_smile:

14

It was a lot easier to follow in the old forum where it was possible to “view my posts”.
Really miss that

/Geoff

15

Okay, my order was wrong - the first thing is always the User Conrtol Panel, it’s default for this is why I missed it in my order.
BTW, it would be great to have an option to set your User Control Panel as “starting page” when you log in. I think most user are doing this first.

16

Not if you’re answering questions! In which case we NEED you!

I see I’m not on the list this month, so I best get going with it, eh?! :wink:

17

It’s not bad at all…it’s good to participate in multiple forums.
It’s just interesting. You have to excuse my lame attempt at some
humor.

Hey geoffro:

> where it was possible to
> “view my posts”.

It’s possible and there are multiple ways to do it.

First, there’s the subscription mode. By default, there is no
subscription when you participate in a thread. You can change that in
the USER CONTROL PANEL by selecting the EDIT OPTIONS link in the left
menu and under the MESSAGING & NOTIFICATION section, changing your
DEFAULT THREAD SUBSCRIPTION mode. There are three options for email
notification and one for no email notification. With any of those
selections, your will automatically subscribe to any thread you post in
and you can see these messages/threads by just clicking on USER CONTROL
PANEL from any forum page.

Another option is to click on the SEARCH link in the header bar, then
select ADVANCED SEARCH then in the SEARCH BY USER NAME box, enter your
user ID and then hit the SEARCH NOW button.

The bottom line is though the terminology and the way it functions may
be somewhat different than other forum software out there, it can be
done without much effort.

Hi
Your excused :wink: Last month you also posted a breakdown of the
individual sections, is it possible to run that script too?
