I could convert it VB if you wanted.

I'd much rather you work on new features than converting it to VB for me :3

So guess what! The stats generator is working flawlessly on its new parsing engine (its much more accurate). Whats a parsing engine? A parsing engine essentially looks at data, converts it to a usable format, and makes decisions based on said data.

Lets just say, this parsing engine will allow me to easily start grabbing data from any website.

I can't wait to run the stats generator with two new stats. Who uses the most quotes, and who uses quotes a high percentage of the time.

I eventually hope to grab the time stamps of posts as well (that way some stats can only be assigned to active users).

Edit:
As of right now, OMB is 10.1mb of plain text. That's not including pictures at all!

Yup. I simply decompile the app into VB code.

Sebastian, I remember that you were having issues with memory consumption. Where you able to correct that someway? I remember you were saying that you were going to have it look at the post date or something so that it would only catch new posts - Did I remember that correctly?

Yup, the issue was resolved. I was accidentally loading thousands of avatar photo's into memory (always a bad idea). The stats run fine now.
