I don't mind not having the number of posts not there... and date registered can no longer distinguish old school/new school, but what about Location? I don't see what that can hurt... Is there a way to get that back without the other info?

I don't think so... the only options availble are :
Show username and status only.
Show username, status, registration date, post total.
All of above plus location.

But you never know.. Mr. K might be running a newer version of UBB than the one that I use...

Yes, Toad may we please have the location back? I also think that nuking the post count was a good idea.

We'll be really good we promise.

Well, I actually don't miss the post counter, and I think that it definitely encouraged spam. The main reason I enjoy it's absence is that now people won't tell me that I have too much time on my hands because I have 800+ posts. ^_^ Thank you, Mr. K!

But...I really like having the date registered and the "From" field there. I thought that those were nice additions. If there were any way to bring those back, myself and many others would be quite happy.

Oops, never mind. pkthunder just asked that. Sorry.

Yeah, it just looks too blank. And I like location. How else would we have known how close we live to abz1986? And date registered is definitely good. I'm willing to live with the spam that results from post counters for those other two things.

The UBB doesn't work that way. If I remove the post total, the other info disappears as well.

Small price to pay.
