Latest information (recent visitors, etc.) is not up to date

Hi everybody,
I think that the information we get for the recent visitors, recent moderators, etc. is about 3 or more days old. At least I get such impression looking at it in T-SQL forum.

Now that you mention it, I see the same thing in "The Scripting Guy's" forum. The most recent list is topped by the same person the last few days, and their profile shows their most recent activity was actually 2 days ago. Second on the most recent list last had activity over a day ago. But other people show activity in the last few hours.

This is because of server issues. The team is trying out some new services that are being ironed out.

Now, is this a slow trickle or a stop of data?
Because to me it just looks like a slow trickle, which is a known issue.
Can you link to a forum where this is a stop (meaning that it has frozen in time)?
Because I suspect it is just X amount of hours behind, regularly catching up, which is a known issue, due to all the data being transferred around to the various components.
Thanks!

and all other forums I visit. I believe we would not be able to find a forum where this information is not stale for 4+ months.

The recent lists definitely changed since this was first reported, and I frankly stopped paying attention. But now in the Windows Server General forum, the person at the top of the list of most recent users has been inactive in all forums for a month, and the last activity in Server General forum was two months ago. Same in the Directory Services forum, where the person at the top of the list was last in the forum 2 months ago. In the Scripting Guy's forum, the top person (Gorgeous IT Girl) was last in the forum 3 months ago. These are all active forums with many posts per day.

The SharePoint 2010 (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgeneralprevious/threads) has also frozen. PeiterJV has been on 67 answers for a very long time.

Yep, in the Expression Web forum, all lists (Recent Visitors, Top Answerers, etc.) have been static for months now. At first I was gratified to see that I was shown as Top Answerer, but over time I noticed that the numbers never changed, although traffic and answering patterns certainly have, and the top visitor in the Recent Visitors list was a one-time poster who hasn't been seen since around March or so, if mermory serves.
Any idea when this issue will be resolved? I'll admit to the vanity of seeing my name at or near the top of that list as one of the motivators for why I spend so much time hanging around the forum, and so much time composing the kind of in-depth, thorough replies that end up being marked as answer. Frankly, if you take away the recognition system, how do you propose to motivate your core responders who form the nucleus of contributors in most forums?
cheers,
scottPlease remember to "Mark as Answer" the responses that resolved your issue. It is common courtesy to recognize those who have helped you, and it also makes it easier for visitors to find the resolution later.

After forums re-design these lists don't exist anymore (which is a pity) in individual forums. They seem to be MSDN/TechNet/Microsoft forums wide now.
