The menu on the left now shows the top 5 most active threads in the forums.  Activity is calculated as the average date/time of all that thread's posts.

I had to get a bit creative with the SQL since the AVG() function doesn't work with datetimes.  Below is the part of the query that calculates post activity:

AVG((YEAR(post.dateTime) * 365.25) + (MONTH(post.dateTime) * 12) + DAY(post.dateTime)) AS averageDateTime
