From your profile, it does a search in descending order, and maxes out at 500. If you go to the last page, you can see the oldest date it comes up with... yours is 2/12/06. Then, you can go to Search -> Advanced Search and do an ascending search for threads started by you... then find that date and count backwards (25 threads per page). So yours is 680... a few short of luv.

So I've started 61 threads that have had at least 100 replies. How does that rank among posters on the Planet?

Is there a way to data mine the post counts with a criteria of at least 100 replies and rank em?

I came up with 525, but thanks for the method!

Oops, screwed that up... searched for posts and not threads... it's 500 + 25, so not 680.

Heh...it MUST be the offseason. I didn't figure this thread would stay on the front page through the night, let alone the next day.

I've got a little gizmo that will let me see a more complete list of thread posters. Here's everyone with more than 500.

Can you break-down GoChief's threads into WPI spam?

Hmm...if the search didn't max out at 500 results, you might be able to do a search for all his threads with the word "scout" in one of his posts. Maybe.

Of course, the search index is still pretty suspect, so even that might not be accurate.

Apparently I'm a much better project manager than project do-er. :banghead:

661/27004=2.45%

Daface is there a way to do this?

Hmm...if there is, it would have to be through the search function somehow. I don't have any real limiting criteria in the admincp or anything.

I'd bet if I were a mysql guru I could take it direct from the db, but I'm not touching that thing. I'd probably blow the place up!

Let me see what I can come up with.

Search -> Advance Search, you could do a search for threads started by a particular user with more than 100 replies.


I'll leave the doing to someone else.

Of 14 threads, my highest are 98 (a HoC thread), 81, 56, and 56.

Yeah, looks like you could figure it out for individual users pretty quickly, but I don't have any easy way to pull out a full list or anything.

Ooh! That'd be an even MORE telling stat: what portion of a user's threads made it to more than 100 replies?

For me, that would be 10/278 = 3.6%
