I was gone for several days and was surprised when I returned. The missing ranks jumped out at me. I thought I wasn’t all the way logged on. I find it interesting that I really miss the rankings and stats under a user’s screen name. I vote to have them restored. Was also wondering if it is standard procedure for staff to clean house with spam threads, closing them if necessary to discourage continued spam. On sites where I am a staff member I find it very engaging and even relaxing to go through and deal with spam. Just wonder how things like this are done around here. BTW, noticed several spam threads when I just now logged on.

Is it a test?

I'd call them language violations but yeah, ads about home appliance repair on a phone forum is spam too.
Please hit the report button if you see any spam, or anything that needs mod attention. We do our best at identifying and removing spam, but sometimes, as I'm sure you know, it can show up where the mods aren't looking.
^what he said!
And yea, it can be relaxing/rewarding helping keep spam at bay.
Just to post a contrary opinion (what, me?), I actually am fine with the disappearence of the rankings. I'm of 2 minds with regards to no stats being visible unless you guess where to look for them, as traditional ones like join dates, numbers of posts or numbers of likes/thanks do convey some information at a glance. But ranking via what to most members will be an obscure algorithm never especially did it for me.
