Note:

All posts to a thread are counted together. Where the subject has been changed, each subject is also shown, grouped under the totals line for the thread, and without a Started By given.
Start and End dates are DD/MM/Y
Threads with Start Date of 00/00/0 and/or Started by ---- reference an original post not the database of thread-initiating posts. This may be because the original post was in an earlier period, or because the Reference header has been edited.
