Yeah I should have just called it "Score Ratio" or anything else really. It seems to be the word "Quality" that people don't like. Lurker isn't wrong, but I'm assuming the threads he considers "important breaking news" aren't that important to other users or else they would get more upvotes. Unless we are to believe the majority of users do/don't upvote based on how they feel about a post and they upvote colorful pictures with big words out of programmed instinct. Not a big deal, I just like stats that's why I asked.
BTW when you said:
isn't the date joined and level ratio better than that
I had no clue what you were talking about. Just saw it a couple minutes ago. I like it.
