y'know i was going to dismiss this and say of course there is, just clikc the "members" link.. but it's not there anymore since the forum upgrade. i'm sure it's here somewhere but I can't find it at the moment..

Here's a clue though... it's not me... i'm only 2nd highest at the moment.

but then again... you want the most threads, not posts maybe... in that case no there's never been a way to see that kind of view, as it has no real relation to anything else.

The memberlist was removed, as it has no real value to the site and it was a waste of bandwidth/resources. But like acid_kewpie stated, currently you can only see the number of posts a member has, not the number of threads. But I'm pretty sure I know who the top member is for total number of thread creations, it was well before we disabled the counting of posts in General and this member almost reached Guru status by asking questions and starting irrelevant threads in General. I'm not going to name this member though, it's my secret all to me.

This info indeed never was available. Doing a quick SQL query though, it's me (be a substantial margin). This is probably a result of the fact that I make many announcements and updates, which are each a new thread.

HAH! Jeremey just said it was him. For some reason I have a feeling that Jeremy wasn't starting irrelevant threads in general.

Hey jeremy - I bet that you also hold the record for thread creation with '0 replies' - all those Community Bulletins - wot!!

Incidentally, the new format only returns the most recent 500 or so (under '0 reply threads') so what I wanna know is how is the overall score, especially after the recent blitz to try to reduce the total.

Cheers
Richard
