I never noticed this: Clicking on the votes and reads icons in Control Panel/My Stories expands abbreviated numbers over 1,000 to their specific value

I realize others have probably noticed before, but I don’t recall seeing discussions about it. I noticed for the first time just now, by accident.

From within the Control Panel, in the My Stories area, if you click, tap, or hover on an abbreviated number larger than 1000 (such as 1.1k) you’ll see the actual number (such as 1101, 1149, and 1199). Yes, 1199 too, it’s truncated, not rounded.

Isn't it a wonderful feeling when you discover these small things?

I remember when I discovered that I could see how many posts I'd added to a thread by clicking on my smaller avatar in the thread starter's larger avatar. I felt like I'd discovered the source of the Nile.

Yup, my experience as well

No need to click, this happens on hover alone.

Good point. Its been so long since I used the forums on a computer I didn’t even bother to check.

Simulating hovering via long press on a phone is fraught with peril.

Mobile-friendly UI would of course afford for both hovering and tapping. Since you said click, I figured you were talking about a PC.

I edited the first post to cover more bases.

Then (being Literotica) I tried to make up a new word to cover clicking, tapping, or hovering.

Then (again) being Literotica, my choices all sound dirty. In fact I’m having a harder time finding a non dirty one.

• Clitaho
• Hoclita
• Tapcliho
• Clihotap
• Finger
• Glide
• Position
• Click, tap, or hover

Some things just can’t be abbreviated! I tried 1199 1.1k times. ;-)
