By now I'm sure everyone has seen the statistics on the top of the board when you come here. By default it shows you the top posters in the first column, top threads in the middle column & latest threads in the 3rd column.

If you're one for stats, or just didn't know, you can do much more with that stat box up there (and a large Thanks to Noir who helped notice this and send me off to learn more...)

First off, in the first column where it states "Top Posters", you can click on that "link" and it will give you a multitude of statistics to choose from as seen in the following image:

You will now notice, after you choose a different stat, that column 1 now shows the NEW stat you chose:

Now, just above that, you'll see another link that states "Top 10 Stats", and you can click on this as well and it will give you 2 options 1) View more stats than just the top 10 and then 2) you can turn off the stats. Here is a picture of what I mean:

If you choose "View More" in the above choice, you will be brought to a new page listing the stats. From here, you can choose both a category for the stats you want to view, and the ability to change from the top 5 up till the top 200. Like below:

I see via the logs that this is rarely used, but then again, I don't think it was ever explained. Just thought I would make this more clear for those of you like myself who like to check out statistics! Feel free to ask if you want to learn anything I didn't cover here.
