Can we correct the problem in formatting the numbers between the replies to a topic and the views of a topic? They should either both use commas, or neither use commas, but either way they should be the same! (I prefer commas for both, if possible.....)
I appreciate the immediate correction of this before my Asperger's goes completely off the rails.
That’s orderliness not a disorder. Also known as being a pedantic knob. <— that’s just a joke in case you actually have a disorder.
Odd problem considering 8,628 has a comma.
All the numbers in that column (views) are formatted with commas, but the column to the left of it (replies) isn't.
I know it probably sounds crazy, but when I see things that are like that (inconsistent formatting, math errors, etc.) I get a sense of smell, and a color associated with them that are not pleasant. I can't pick out huge number problems and instantly see that they are wrong, but for the simple things that are obvious it definitely smells and looks different than if it were correct. Same with formatting like this. Not a huge thing, just wish it could be formatted the same across the whole page.

Easy fix. Use mobile. 😆
At the old house I lived in there were 2 entrances to the kitchen from the living room.
If my step son entered the kitchen from the east entrance he had to go back out of the kitchen using the same entryway.
He explained it as having a string tied to his back. Going out the other entryway back to the living room would get the string tangled and then his brain would obsess over it.
And this, this is why election fraud is so easy for a trained eye to spot. Numbers never lie.
People do.
I have done enough forensic auditing to know when something is off.
Measurement statistics , like any other numbers, dont care about your feelings.
Apparently you're not the only one who finds inconsistencies in numbers. Ran across this yesterday.

This is the way I always look at numbers, stats, etc.

Some people call it OCD, others call it putting the damn things back in the right place!
I doubt ML is going to play the role of therapist for someone's minor issues.
Although many here bleed out their mental problems in as many threads as they can engage in.
If you're publicly losing it here over a comma...
🤯
This is a feature, not a bug
🤣
Can we get decimals while we’re at it? That way if someone only scrolled 3/4 of the thread it’s 0.75 views.
Michael, while you're at it, I've got this ingrown toenail....
The number, 2136279841 – 1, possesses a whopping 41024320 digits, more than 16 million digits

What about exponents, If someone liked a post it might be worth the power of 2. If I had to scroll through twice, does it still count as only one person viewed it?
This could ultimately lead to a change in your username to, Chance1,216.
I wish I knew years ago that, all it would take for APLMA99 to lose his mind of all things would be…….. a damn comma 😂

Well played! 😀
I think it’s not the commas he’s messed up about…
It’s Commala. The commas are just a manifestation of his angst over the election.
Where should I send my bill?

The older I get, the more I understand and like that movie. 👍
I did a proper job on a guy who worked at a supplier, they sent reports over for a bunch of parts, and he sent a ton of Data, with some parts, where they had decalared no non confomance. One of the bits of data was just a text based slider that showed the skew of a deviation, based on the number, but lots of the skew data didnt add up with the graphic he reported.
Busted.
This is a very profeshenal125esque post .
I stopped reading after "I did a proper job on a guy . . ."
Post a reply to: @ML512, can we get an urgent fix to this horrific problem?!?!?!?!?
