Suggestion: Collect statistic about the amount of comments and posts a user made.

I just thought that it might be useful for a person to see how many posts and comments they have made on ~. As that data is already available for manual collection it might be nice to have it available more easily on that profile.

    I'm not sure what purpose it would have? Unless you're talking about statistics about what groups they comment and submit to.

      For me it would just be to state my curiosity about my activity on ~, without being too intrusive into likes/dislikes of a person that more comprehensive statistics would be.

    Which groups I post the most in, how many posts I've made overall, etc.

        I think we are avoiding the vote I received statistic to try and avoid karma farming like on reddit.

          Oh right, I forgot about that. I don't really like the karma thing, anyway. Do you consider votes I've given as a more interesting statistic?

            It could be interesting but to be honest I do not really see the point of it.

              No point, really. I just like data. How about Number of users participating in a discussion or Number of *tag* tagged posts?
