What is a leaderboard?

[Gracie]

It doesn't make sense to me. Front page, right side. Says LEADERBOARD and some members names, but no rhyme or reason for those names to be there because it changes now and then. So can someone explain what that is?

It looks like a listing that goes in reverse numerical order, probably of members who were online during a specific amount of time in the last hours, according to number of postings in that time frame. But I agree, it makes little sense.

I was thinking maybe that the top three get e-trips to France.

i could be wrong as i occasionally have been

but it looks like the posters with the most posts

for a time period

with peach being number one with the most

followed by the second then third

and so on

But...why? Who cares how many posts someone does in a specific time frame?

I was kinda dorking around the place, looking at stuff. Noticed it and wondered what it was.

dorking around is a good idea. It's like sniffing, but using more than one bodily part to do it...


lol...

Um...It's a board okay. With uh...Leaders on it.

I assume since the posts aren't our total posts, maybe it's using some kind of algorithm to determine most good/well-liked/popular posts?

I'VE seen empty posts, morons trying to get on a meaningless list that jams the forum with B/S

Carry On...
