Wasn't sure where to post this,

I think adding some statistics to the blue star system would be a simple addition that could greatly benefit the site. By statistics I mean average number of stars per post, total numbers of stars, highest starred post, etc. These would all be public and available to be viewed on a posters profile.

This would incentivize posting, the ultimate goal of a message board. I know some are of the opinion that the stars only encourage snarky posts but I think the popularity of these types of posts speak for themselves.

Just a quick thought. With the POTD functionality I have to believe you have some of this already built in so it would be fairly simple to implement.

Agreed.

I think you'll be seeing such things as we move towards overhauling the user profiles.

Bump. Rough estimate on when that might happen?

6 month to 6 years? Oh wait that is the timeline for a work project to be done.

Daily total blue star tallys & a blue star stat page would be neat too. As in; I'm curious if today has broken a blue star record given 2 POTD posts have over 700 today.
