I don't know where to begin. I'm so excited to finally be done with this page and to finally share it. This is a page I've been working on little by little for over a month but have been planning for many months. A month ago I started putting together a page to render data for this past April fools prank but the report developed into something greater and become something I had wanted to develop for other purposes: A Tribute to the Most Memorable Vizzed Users!

https://www.vizzed.com/stats/vizzed-user-tribute.php

I've wanted to do a tribute of some sort for this community for a very long time. A way to honor those who have contributed so much and as a way to show my respect for those contributions. And most importantly, a way to keep their legacies alive.

The page contains a "Card" for the top 250 users (based on most posts) but with a few additional people added to the list (including users who have been active in the past year and of course Randy). The information generated isn't perfect so don't take offense if the script rendered anything inaccurately.



I created some scripts that scanned 10% of the posts of these users (with a max of 1000 posts and a min of 100 posts) and had a machine learning type script determine what each user's MBTI personality is based on the content of each user's posts (keep in mind that this is just their Vizzed persona, my MBTI is nothing like mine in real life, which happens to be INFJ). And using that same content, it also scored every user based on a variety of categories.



The other stats are based on each user's total post/thread count. Each user's posting trends are analyzed which offers some fun stats.



And then we have a cool posting timeline in a heatmap format. If you hover over any of the boxes, it shows how many posts the user posted that year.



Now for the most nostalgic part of this entire page...

User Picture History! This was incredibly difficult to put together, and it's definitely missing a lot of pictures. I had a script scan the wayback machine to find as many unique user pictures for each user on the list as possible. This script literally took days to run and I had to take breaks from running the script since the website would start rejecting my requests. But the content obtained from this is very cool because it was able to obtain 1000s of forgotten user pictures. It's been fun looking back at some user's past profile pictures and actually remembering them.



I highly encourage you guys check out the page (especially considering how many hours I invested into it). The content of the page doesn't auto update so view it as a preserved snapshot of April 2026.

Anyways, this page should be fun and nostalgic for everyone

well my guide writing will increase in the future if it's the last thing I do I just need the blasted time (and yeah if this was created any other year the insomnia thing would be off the charts)

I already took a peak at this a few days ago when we found it, I think it's really neat. I'm a bit overwhelmed with how many stats I can see but I especially like things like the userpics and the posting heatmaps.

And honestly the AI was pretty spot on about certain things. I believe my description mentions that 'the later writing gets noticeably more detailed and explanatory', which I was surprised to see. I only knew about 10 words of English when I first signed up, and posting on Vizzed over all these years really played the most crucial part in my mastering of the language much faster than my peers at school could. To see it recognize this was fun, I didn't see something like that in anyone else's description so it must have really stood out to it.

0/10 becerra is 6/10 nice vs the 2/10 mean.

Should be 10/10 nice and 0/10 mean.

I've been looking at it the past few days when I've seen you viewing the page I like it and think for the most part it does a good job though some of the stats I'm like what do you want from me AI? Like I think it gave me 6/10 on Nicest and I've won the award 6 years in a row at this point which I doubt it takes the actual awards into account but I did find it funny.

42nd? Maybe it is time for a bit of a comeback, gotta crack the top 25 at least haha

I like it overall, neat trip down memory lane! The AI thinks I'm funny, too, which is a big win.

I rank fifth on years active. My username color is growing gray hairs, I throw out my back just trying to post, and Viz inflation has destroyed all of my investment portfolios over the years. My only recourse is that VizzedGPT thinks my humor is 10/10.

I'm absent in the Guide Writer Energy? What's more, my grand master Laian is also absent?

My disappointment is unmeasurable and my day is ruined.



On a serious note, the page looks awesome. It has a ton of stats and clearly showcases what each member has been to this massive community. I just can't fathom how much time you needed to put this piece of history up, and how it covers both currently active users as well as historic veterans we deeply miss.

I like how the AI describes me, the 7/10 in Spelling when I only use English in the internet is quite an accomplishment (and with no spell checking since lots of years, so even better). That 4/10 in Emotional Opennes and Self Disclosure are so reacl and accurate it hurts xD.

I need to get that Guide Writer Energy up, but I will never admit it was the AI who motivated me to become an active writer again... I'll go with the usual "just got time for it now" or "it's now or never to pursue my own personal goals", those two sound much better.

The paragraphs and the "awards" were done using AI, based on my instruction. Not perfect due to the amount of posts it would have had to read for better accuracy. The other stats though are obviously not AI generated, such as the top forums, top threads, user pictures, etc.

Also, keep in mind that for the MBTI personalities it created, that's purely based on the persona that you give off on the forum. I disagree with mine to some extent, since ENTJs are very authoritative and strictly business focused which is nothing like me in real life. But it also makes me realize that this is how people have viewed me for years, so much so that I've had people say they've been afraid to chat with me, or are surprised when they see me or hear me talk. I guess the thing I take away from that is, I should try and open up a little more on Vizzed and be less serious (sorta like how I use to be) but still maintain professionalism when it comes to things related to updates.

I wonder how many people here have been around long enough to remember me having the Ryo Hazuki user picture.

classgame : For the Night Owl Score, I'm pretty sure it sampled every post a user has made for that and the Weekend Posting score. Or at least that's how I programmed it.

Furret : That's actually awesome to hear and I'm not sure if I knew that Vizzed helped with your learning of the English language. Very cool

pokemon x : The ratings aren't as accurate as they could be because it only took a small sample of a person's posts, and since they're randomly selected, it can be a bit inaccurate.

SonicOlmstead : Refer to what I said to pokemon x. I wouldn't be opposed to having the AI do a bigger analysis, it's just more time consuming and uses up more credits. I know it'd do a better job if it factored in all of the posts that someone has created.

merf : You definitely are so that is for sure accurate

Minuano : I had to double check your age. Actually thought you were older than just 26, lol.

EX Palen : Maybe I forgot but I had no idea that English wasn't your primary language. I'm impressed.

Quite intersting to see the data for myself. But, I am definitely not an Extrovert. LOL The script was wrong on that.

That was awesome! I'm not too surprised to be listed as #2 but at the same time I'm pretty honored to be there.

It was also pretty accurate in its description of me. Not perfect but pretty good.

I can't believe I posted 18,000 times in 3 years from 2009-2011. I know that's when the site was the "best" for me but it still seems unreal to post that many times in such a short time frame. Looks like I was running the VCS during that time which probably helped.

This was really fun to look at.

I do kind of hope you refresh it maybe once a year around the anniversary of the site or something? Turn it into an annual thing maybe?

geeogree : I'm actually working on making an automated version of the page that pulls live data. The page wouldn't utilize AI to make any analysis but it would still show pretty cool stuff like the timeline and the stats that were generated with queries.

thing1 : Really? I would've guessed that you were an extrovert.

Most of my post being at 2013 is pretty spot on. I was just another newbie spamming up the board, trying to find relevance and trust points because that was all the rage back then.

I love all the profile pics i had across the years. All of them were just images i found to be cool or a strong interest in something.

Now i definitely say that i have no idea how or why the ai you're using says my Event Host Energy is 10/10 when i never hosted an event.
Also Best Veteran and Current Relevance 10/10? I doubt anyone knew who i was like a few years ago lol.

Well, I guess I must've done something right to be within the pool of users for this, right? The posting history checks out, especially the one year where I was dedicated enough to go on a posting spree - although the count is still a lot lower than most of the veteran users.

On that note, somehow it gave me 10/10 for "Best Veteran" even though I joined after most of the community pillars of Vizzed joined. It states I have high clarity and a distinctive voice, which...well, hopefully seems about right? It does feel weird to see threads I created such a long time ago ranked with such importance.

It also states that the later writing gets shorter and more direct - that's true, I've been trying to improve my directness and be less wishy-washy about things. It's working well so far.

I'm not a big fan of AI things, but I'm generally fine with things like this that are just done for fun and not trying to slop-ify anything - so in moderation, stuff like this is actually kinda cool. I guess we'll see if and how things continue to evolve, right?

NovemberJoy : You're definitely a veteran user. You're one of the few people who was around during AND before the peak years of Vizzed.

supercool22 : Don't be so hard on yourself. The Event Host Energy one is a confusing metric honestly.

I finally finished the User Stats Timeline page that I referenced in this thread a few times. You can find details about it here:

Davideo7 : Nope , not an extrovert at all. If anything, I am a "Extroverted Introvert." If I like you, I won't shut up. But, I won't really put myself out there, especially not on my own.

thing1 : That's fair. I think some of us are like that. I'm an introvert but if I'm comfortable with someone, I come off as an extrovert.

Davideo7 : I mean, that's a pretty good way of putting it.
I told my wife today that I was an introvery, and she swears that I am an extrovert. I said I might be extroverted, but to look around us; there's not a lot of other people around us, apart from our families and the dogs. There's a few friends, but not a ton, nor do we really hang out with them that often.
