Oh, are the votes/follows/comments totals missing? (in certain views...)

Exactly. Like the medals! :)

The missing stuff.. I only noticed it yesterday. Now Marc made a change (to fix an admin bug) on Thursday which might possibly have caused that, as a side effect. I'll ask him.

If you click on the logo at the top, you get the 4 grouped sections.. and all the totalling stuff is there OK. That's the view I usually use on a PC.

Don`t like them , they encourage waffle .

What's waffle? I thought they were bingo awards.

Most of the waffling is going on on two threads. Easy to avoid if it's bothersome.

I didn't say it bothered me, it's unavoidable that forums have a statistical % of waffle , I couldn't give a fuck about it , but medals I think encourage it. Another forum I use (Videohelp) disabled all post numbers as people were posting to attain post totals.

When I say "waffle" I mean posts that have nothing of any value to them , no point to them or entertainment value (as opposed to banter, word games or conversation - which are different) . Just my 10p's worth.

Howdy, Stranger!
