Anyone know why our awards no longer show up under our callsign? I know they're under our personal page, but they used to be under our callsign...no big deal really....I was just wondering....

It's a performance issue... for every award displayed a query needs to be send to the relevant repository where the award is stored and the award picture retrieved... as you can imagine this results in 1000's of queries all taking place at the same time and slowing the server down...

Hope that answers your question...

It sure does Rudi, and that's certainly good enough for me. Thanks!

I'll have to say even though the reason why is excellent, I miss seeing them. You could catch at a glance who the real participants are on the site.
