oh, cool. I think that the other problem with this system is that *gasp* it doesn't actually mean anything. I think that a lot of the higher numbers are coming from people who have > 1k posts, and a lot of those users have never been banned. It's a pretty fun exercise though. | ||

But there seems to be a strong trend. i think everyone can agree that if everybody had lower ratios, the quality of posts would in general increase and be a lot more interesting to read. further, an overall low average means that there is more dialogue going on, rather than just people posting one way feedback. the reason i like posting on forums is coz it's fun reading what people say in response to my posts. a low average ratio would suggest a higher rate of member retention, and a faster growing community as a result. btw you're an asshole hawk, just so you get the message. | ||

2.82 Seeing as that isn't especially low, I'm going to jump on the "your logic is flawed" bandwagon. xD TBH it really is. Your idea of "good" could be a complete troll. It's a good way of identifying "notable" posters though, those whose ideas are exceptionally good OR bad enough to warrant response. | ||

For example my current ratio is 2490 : 773 = 3.22. Now if I get an extra 'quote' point for each time someone posts in my LR thread I have 5951 points so my new ratio is .41 :D | ||

Idk, there is so much that could throw this off, theory interesting but relatively useless imo. Edit: I am 1995 : 733 = 2.72. I guess I can live with that. | ||

 Anyways, this is obviously not accurate, because people can quote you for a variety of reasons; when they agree as well as when they disagree etc. I'm sure someone pointed this out.

Here are just a few of the threads I've made that have 6k++ views: Club Day MSL FInals Save the Gosus Paint Brush 7CPU challenge SC GLITCHES Teenage Shooting/Suicide Blood Bath Strats Azn chicks thread What's worse? SC desktop icons Twilight Struggle + Altered Maps There at least 3 times this with over 5k views | ||
