Board Thread:Site Questions/@comment-5073067-20131117144621

i'm very new here and i have never been able to get the hang of forums and message board-based sites like this, so forgive my ignorance.

i joined the site a while ago, submitted one story and left. now i have come back and i would like to see what kind of attention my story has recieved. is there any way to do this?

when i go to my contributions on my page, there is a green (+2,734)   to the left of my original post of my story. does this mean that many people gave it a "thumbs up" or whatever you'd call it? i guess what i'm asking for is a way to see the analytics of my story and i don't know if this site has anything like that.

if anyone wants me to post a link to my story, i can but i don't know if posting a link to a story on the site questions board will get me banned or something like it.
