Okay, maybe everyone knows about this. Oh, and maybe it’s not an actual feature, but rather just a “thing.”

If you’re looking at a list of threads (either ALL new posts, or just a page in a forum), and click on the “replies” number, you’ll get a little popup that lists every poster in that thread and how many posts each has made to that particular thread.

For example, if you go to Great Debates and naviagate to Welcoming His4ever, Our First Actual “Chick” ChickWelcoming His4ever, Our First Actual "Chick" Chick!, then click on the “Replies” number (it’s currently 239), you get:

I just think that’s cool. You can easily see who is dominating the conversation.

Plus, I’m easily amused. :slight_smile:

I never even thought to see if clicking on the Replies number would take me anywhere. Never even noticed that it was a hyperlink.

Thanks, dantheman!

Well, like I said - I’m easily amused. I also went to my profile and made it so every hyperlink is highlighted - makes it easier for me to see what’s a link. :slight_smile:

The first time someone posted about this in ATMB, I was surprised too. I had never thought to click on the number of replies to see what would happen.
