This is not wise.

Edit: To be clear I'm not referring to Chris, just generally.

Heh. Without referring to chris in particular, I agree. I have a large number of posts and relatively little experience, none of it MP--people with many posts are *garrulous* players.

I tend to think the number of "thanks" are a more useful guide--at least you know that the person has had useful information to share in the past. Although there's still no guarantee that the really skilled players will show up on that metric, either.

See? I did it again--couldn't resist posting.

Actually, when I invoked this generally unwise metric, I was thinking of Chris specifically, having read some of his posts in other threads. But, I agree that, in general, it is as about as useful as lines of code as a metric....

Different people have different signal to noise ratios.

But this post is about life and not about EA Arco strategy, so it probably is tipped more to a Noise 2 or 3 scale itself....
