Why is it the "Show general statistics for this member" is not working?

[Jerusareth]

Why is it the "Show general statistics for this member" button in my profile or any other forum member is not working right after I clicked it as I receive an error of 'User stats are disabled', is it only me or do I need to rank up first before I am capable in looking that category?

I am not sure about this and why Theymos did it. I guess that Theymos did it because huge, abundant abusements in the forum recent months by spammers, campaign-seekers and cheaters. They put considerable pressure on the hardware infracstructures of the forum to store such a statistic for all users of the forum.

If my theory is right, this function might be re-opened in the future when the endemic ended, might be as a consequence and huge impacts of merit system.

Again, thanks for merit system's great impacts on the forum.

User stats was disabled by theymos after DDOS attacks few months ago:

I might've figured it out. A bunch of things are currently disabled; I'll work on safely enabling them in the coming days.

But it's not clear when it will be enabled again, maybe never.
