The bar charts in the myBB admin CP are a little redundant are they not? There never going to go down are they, they just keep going with posts/members....on a forum like mine where I get around 20 new members a day it just seems a little pointless to have a line chart showing me that I'm getting more members each day.
The statistics underneath are useful though.
And when you prune users or posts? Perhaps you would like to see the effect of your moderators? Likely people want to see the type of statistical growth they have on a chart over the course of time.
I understand why they are there, but they only show growth, unless your deleting half of your members or posts the chart only goes up. The "Overall Statistics" underneath better describe what's going on.
I'd like to see a more advanced statistics feature in the control panel I just feel the current bar charts don't actually achieve this.
I'm not neigh saying the work people put in because I appreciate that.
I'm sure someone could come up with a plugin to log more data and achieve more advanced stats.
Currently statistics are only collected once a day, so that's the highest resolution your going to get out of them, which we provide.
Actually I find the stats area in the Admin panel very nice and informative.

Ryan,
is there a way to collapse the graphs or have an option to hide them? I like the stats page, but I'd like to hide the graphs until I want/need to look at them.
a dX/dt graph would be better than a graph of X v/s t
Where X is the number of posts/users etc
LOL xD :p

No, there are differents growths. Logarithmic increase - bad. Linear increase - might be. Exponential increase - brilliant. Just a little maths.
Use a ruler and check from time to time how are your stats doing.
