[1]: Posts via mail to news gateways are dropped by this server
and hence not included in the stats.
Other attention seeking posters may not appear as well.
[2]: Troll feeder %'age is (troll feeding posts / total posts) * 100
[3]: The poster 'quality' stats is based on:
a) quoting: 100 - %'age quoted
b) cross-posting: 100 - %'age cross-posted
c) number of direct followups posters articles get
d) troll feeding: 100 - 2.0 * %'age troll followups
e) 75 deducted for known trolls
f) for the humour impaired the quotes around 'quality'
are intended to convey they are not to be taken too
seriously :-)
g) for Erik: it is highly unlikely, although perhaps
possible, for a troll to appear in the 'quality' stats
[4]: Erik Funkenbusch is a MS apologist, frequent liar and FUD
spreader and seriously lacking in ethical values. He often
tries to change the subject when his argument has been torn
to shreds or, more likely, just runs away.
weasel n. [Cambridge] A naive user, one who deliberately
or accidentally does things that are stupid or ill-advised.
Roughly synonymous with loser
