  Go to 'Forums Home', click on the next button to see top answerers and note numbers for Uri Dimant. He shows 98 answers in the list of top 10 Answerers and 108 in the list of top 10 MVP Answerers. I noticed this problem before with different people also.

  That's not a link and not an image. =^)

  I actually followed your steps. Couldn't repro. Why? There are three forum homes.

  Please post a link and maybe an image.

  Thanks!

  Bug#85386 Feedback: I believe the difference here is if individuals participate in a private forum. Will you verify if this is the case. If so this is by design. Thank you.

  Do you mean there is a private MVP forum on MSDN?

  Thanks in advance.

  I don't think that's it as I noticed this last couple of days here for my own name though today the values match.  I haven't posted in private forums in more than a year.

  Right now these two numbers match in that forum. Are you saying the numbers may be different for individual forum also?

  BTW, the total numbers don't change if I view SQL Server forums only or 'Forums Home'. Should not the numbers be different?
