Hey, what happened to the numbers under our name and icon on the left side?

Yup, found them. sometimes it is nice to see how many posts someone has. Just more effort now.

SUGGESTION. I think it would be nice to know someone's location. Not exactly, but maybe country or in case of large country state or province or prefecture etc. That would allow reader to figured out someone's time zone. I was exchanging chats with someone thinking they were in England. When I asked turned out they were in SE Asia. No wonder we weren't online at the same time.

Not trying to invade anyone's anonymity. I just thought it might be interesting.

There is the option for each poster to list their location in their profile. When you click on their name/hover, if they've chosen to add it, you will see it.
 
I tried to check my private messages and apparently they have all been deleted!

I got this "You have no recent direct messages".

I don't know the web site definition of recent but I had some last week.

Am I just looking in wrong place?

See the spot at the bottom of the window that says "show all"? That's what you're looking for.
 
Back when I was working at my career job, I found out the employer was panning a massive upgrade in computer technology for my area. It would involve all new computers for us, new apps, and a requirement that everything be done on line. No writing utensils and paper. Along with new requirements that monthly progress reports and evaluations be done on line for every project. Being as I did not grow up with computers but had to learn them as a seasoned adult this meant massive retraining for me. And since I was a few years away from retirement it didn't seem worth the effort and accompanying stress to go through the retaining only to retire about the time I had it figured out so I retired earlier than I had planned. I still actually had using them. I am quite slow at it. W

What I can do I can mostly do. But, I have a hard time figuring out stuff I don't know how to do. When I have someone much younger than me help me and I ask them how did you know to do that, the frequent reply is "It's intuitive!" Well, not to me. That's why I retired.

Please be patient student driver on board.

Thanks.

I suspect they were hidden because people with low post numbers/reaction scores were being differentially targeted for ridicule and would cry themselves to sleep every night. You can see them if you click on a posters (initially blurred) avatar.
