My thoughts are that the band news and concert information gets lost in the general forum.....after a day or two it isn't seen anymore on the main forum page. If I make a separate forum for these threads, it is easy to check that forum for the latest news, etc.
I've seen and used what you are talking about. There are a number of "addons" that can do various stat lists. Some of these "addons" are used only by admins, others are more for public use/knowledge.I didn't want to make a whole new thread and get like one answer (waste of a thread, lol) so I hope it is okay to ask here but is there a way to make it so we can view the forum stats? I don't think it is possible with this host but another forum I am at has a stats page with how many people register a day, top 10 thread makers, most popular threads, stuff like that.
Meh, just something to look at when waiting for new replies or just out of curiousity. I doubt it can happen with vbulliten but I figured I would ask anyways. I thought it was a cool feature in the other forum but not sure what host he uses.

There are also some stats that are available via the "members list". Those stats are available via the normal software, but the options available are set by the admin staff as well. the more info available, the more work on the server/database end of the site. So on a really busy site, it's not a good idea for this stuff to be available for public use as it can really add to the load on the database, which in layman's terms, slow shit down for everyone.
