The number of words in your posts? :-\
I have a feeling this won't be figured out for days.

Is it the total ammount of replies to threads that we started?

It does not represent the total number of posts.
Originally posted by Sauronif it does not work from the number of posts, then would it be the number of applause one receives
?
It doesn't seem to be applauses, if it was your bar would be bigger than SO's Sauron.
And if it isn't posts, what is it? Views/replies perhaps?

[edit on 19/3/07 by Implosion]
i think it may be like that, but its on the same bar...
in other words, the grayish matter represents either ATS/BTS/PTS, the red represents another, and etc...
of course, i am looking way into it though
or maybe its based on the number of threads one has made???

It might be the number of flagged threads...Or the number of flags you've received...Or the number of threads you've flagged.

While I see what your getting at, and agree with some of it, I think this is the greatest asset of this new bar. For the obvious reasons. Now, as a
member, we are forced to actually read the posts of members and decide their worth. In my days as a member, I was lucky enough to receive enough
Applauses to break the old post bar. I mean, I don't kid myself for a second to think I'm in the same realm as half of this board when it comes to
worthy posts. I read some of the material from new members with a glowing gray bar, and a lot of it goes unnoticed. I think some members may pass
over a post or two, because the member is supporting a miniscule gray bar. With this new one, we are on one level and everyone is an equal. Our
posts speak for themselves, and the bar will not speak for ourselves anymore.
I think Applauses! are a form of reinforcement, not a determining factor for some mythological "ATS hierarchy".
And we can not overlook what is most important.

30 minutes after cutting over the new code, server load went from 72% to 36%... it's going to be a major overall boost.
I know personally, my browser was having some problems viewing ATS. Once or twice I x'd out and walked away for a few minutes because it frustrates
me. Considering this new upgrade is going to drastically enhance the board output, how can we possibly disagree with that?
I've noticed a big difference myself.
And to show that I am capable of having an opinion of my own, not just agreeing with everything that the Admin do, I will say that I did prefer the
old red titles. I prefer the old titles, but I happen to like the new post bar.

For members that work hard for their credibility and respect which they have earned, I feel the new bar a sort of slap in the face. I am now among
the newest members making crack pot stories about their trip back in time with buhbuh the reptilian.
I see what your saying, but you can always look at someones "joined" date.... If the bar was re-adjusted to properly show someones post I would be
happier  as for applauses I suppose they don't matter anymore?

The formula is simple... but that doesn't mean the answer is easy.

Let's not slap the admin back by making huge quotes... mm-kay?
Your extended profiles are now an amazing information-rich place to learn a broad spectrum of information that indicates the earnestness which which
members contribute to ATS.

O.k., my next guess is it is the combined total of the threads started, posts, applause, flags, replies and views combined.
