What's the "visits" part of your profile (you can see when you click on your profile name in the top right).  My visits # has always been 4, but now it's 400.  Weird O.o

    Oh, is that what it is? I assumed it counted the number of independent times you visited the forums, not how many times people clicked your profile. (I just clicked into yours multiple times and it still says 400.)

    It said 406 when I checked. Do Wombats ever clear their caches? Also, does anyone know what the promote counter is from? I got one, but when I click it, it goes to a comment with no indication that it had been promoted.

    I'm trying to figure out how to promote your comment right now...I was unsuccessful :(

    Pretty sure "Promote" was an option similar to "Insightful" and "Like" that came with the new forum and was quickly removed along with something like "Lol". I could also be making this up entirely.

    Promote is a feature that only moderators and admins have access to. It bumps posts onto a specific web page that the forum has the capability of hosting, however we don't have that integrated into ours, because with the number of games we have featured, it would get cluttered really quickly.

    For our forum, it's basically just a glorified Like button.

    Thanks Brigby! I thought it might be a mod only option, but wondered why it didn't seem to actually mean anything.
