Profile metrics

Am I understanding these metrics correctly?

  • Following - number of users that they are following
  • Followers - number of users following them
  • Solved - the number of my replies that have been marked as a solution to question
  • Replies - the total number of replies that they have authored
  • Topics - appears to be the number of topics that they have participated in

Does anyone else think the Topics metric is confusing? I expected to see the number of topics that I started, but the count is wrong. So, I am assuming it is the number of topics that I have participated in.

  • Argh. I should have just clicked the link. They imported content from the old forums. That is why the number was higher than I expected.

    So, yes, Topics does indicate the number of topics started.

    My guess was that Topics was the number of threads authored.

    My reasoning for that is that my Topics number is 7, while my replies is 207.
