====== Statistics and privacy ======

AutoHost records statistics separately from official profile totals and supports public-visibility controls.

[[commands:stats|.stats [username]]] shows AutoHost playtime and recorded PP-gain statistics, while [[commands:lobby|.lobby]] summarizes room activity. They describe data recorded by the bot and can differ from official osu! profile totals.

Use [[commands:hidden|.hidden]] to withhold your statistics from public lookups; use [[commands:show|.show]] to make them public again. These controls remain available when staff temporarily suppress ordinary public commands. Hiding is a visibility choice, not deletion of historical logs or an osu! account privacy setting.

The website publishes [[statistics:start|public player rankings and achievements]] and anonymous [[status:start|lobby activity]]. It applies the same account-wide visibility choice: hidden players are excluded from named rankings, spotlights and details at the next refresh, normally within five minutes. Anonymous community totals still include their activity. See [[statistics:how_it_works|the metric and visibility rules]]. It does not publish raw chat or private staff reports. Wiki editor accounts are separate from osu! identities. See [[community:contributing|editor rules]].

===== Worked example =====
Use ''.hidden'' to hide your statistics from public lookups; ''.show'' restores visibility. ''.stats'' requests your recorded AutoHost statistics.

===== Limitations =====
Visibility is not deletion of operational history. Wiki accounts and osu! identities are separate.
