Thread: Tracking global number of thanks

    Default Tracking global number of thanks

    Since the thanks feature was implemented a while back now, I was curious on a number of questions:

    1. Who has the most thanks as an individual?
    2. How many total thanks have been given out?

    We do not track those stats, sorry.

    That is a bit incorrect. The individual totals can be seen on the profile.
    However, there is no spread sheet of who has the most and the like.

    The individual totals are displayed, but not the stats the OP requested. A person could deduce the results from those if they manually checked the stats on all 26,439 member accounts, but such work is probably so time consuming that the result would be out of date before it was even calculated. The requested stats could probably be pulled with a direct SQL query, so if you'd like that done you should bug the TAs relentlessly until they give you what you want.

    There have been 17,593 thanks given out for 10885 posts.

    The most thanked member is @Major Robert Dump with 403 posts thanked 743 times, narrowly pipping @JMRC (225/739) and @Lemur (407/708).

    @Maltz has the most thanked posts, with 441 posts being thanked 519 times (it's then @Lemur and @Major Robert Dump).

    @Gelatinous Cube is our top thanker by a country mile, giving out 1817 thanks. That's more than twice his nearest rival.

    I don't want to add on to the above statement because I have already expressed my approval with a thanks.

    I'm pretty sure 75-80% of my thanks come from Gelatinous Cube.
