    I recently started posting again on NBN after not posting for years. Then when I went back after making some posts, the "Replies/Views Columns" disappeared! ETGator said that format may have been lost with one of the software upgrades over the years. Then I decided to use another old browser I used to access NBN and sure enough the Replies/Views reappeared!

    Apparently, my old Chrome browser did not yet get updated to the current NBN version so it still showed Replies/Views columns but the Edge Browser did get updated which removes these columns from being seen by posters. Also, why does my updated view now show "Moderator/Watch List" at the top right? See below.

    How can I get back the Replies/Views columns?? This information is really important to me as a poster. Without this feedback, I have no awareness of how popular my posts are or posts by others. I cannot believe this information is deliberately removed unless it interferes with the ability of GC to include advertising in the forums.

    I don’t believe the hypothesis of a software update is correct. My guess is that there is some setting that caused Edge to hide the columns in question. After an exhaustive search of the preferences and settings available on the GatorCountry site, lasting well over 22 seconds, I could not see anything that could change the appearance.

    If my hypothesis is correct, the settings will be in a cookie associated with GatorCountry. You can delete these via the settings in Edge.

    Here are the steps:

    - Click on the in the upper right corner of the Edge window
    - Click on Settings
    - Click on Cookies and site permissions
    - Click on Manage and delete cookies and site data
    - Click on See all cookies and site data
    - Enter GatorCountry in the Search cookies box at the upper right
    - Click on the trashcan icon next to the entry for gatorcountry.com

    A side effect of this will be that Edge will not remember your username or password. Hopefully, this will resolve the issue. If not, at least it took your mind off the issue for almost an entire minute.

    It sounds like the new browser is using a smaller resolution -- when the screen is smaller those numbers are compressed out of view. Try increasing the resolution or stretching the browser out further side to side...
