I bottled some country wine today so give me a break. I've thought this through.
The mod's keep cutting me off while typing my new thread so I'll try to type real quick to beat them to the punch and post this.
This new ratio that I've calulated through calculus, (ok, I never took calculus nor spelling).
Ok, someone post a new thread, that thread should have some sort of rating to indicate its value. (not that matters)
So here is what I've devised over the years and have proven it works really good and all forums will adopt it as soon as this hits the WWW.
Formula goes as follows:
You post a new thread: Take the number over of "Views and divide it by number of Replies. Then add to that the OP's number of "Post and divide that by number of Likes. Then multiply that sum by the Join Date and divide by 2.
For example:
567 views of new thread / 54 replies = 10.5.
2500 post that OP has / 76 likes = 32.89
10.5 + 32.89 = 43.39
43.39 x 2006 = 87,040.34 / 2 = 43,520.17
So the index value factor of that new thread is 0.108 which is Xcelent. Do the math.
Apple wine really keeps the mind clear.

Genius - but I think that you need to square the replies and divide by the reciprocal of the join date to get traction.

If that is true you need to drink some apple wine because what ever you have been drinking or smoking has really messed up your mind. Larry

Without the "Broccoli factor" figured into the equasion, your data will be skewed.

Direct or inverse proportional functions? We all have our ups and downs.

Yeah, you might be drinking apple wine, but pretty sure that some other substance is involved as well....

That makes no sense, and if I give it a "like," it could very possibly make the equation enter another dimension. Think I'll take an aspirin now.

You're making my head hurt and I'm not even drinking.
Sober up and call us in the morning.

My slide rule tells me your figures are all messed up; and I double checked using my abacus. Your formula simply yields apple flavored swill.

You eating brownies with that wine? Where ever you were was the song "what a wonderful trip it's been" playing in the background? Tell Jerry I said "what's up!!". Doeboy

I use the same logic to justify buying a new gun. I jot down some numbers maybe a few symbols if it ends up looking cool on paper....I grab my keys and off I go to the LGS.
