24h". It is intended to approximate the traditional ratio as
understood on Twitter.
</p>
<h4>Replies last month</h4>
<p>
This is the number of times the user posted a reply to someone any time in the last month.
</p>
<h4>Reply likes</h4>
<p>
This is the number of likes received by the user on their
replies to other people's posts in the last month. Replies that
receive likes can be assumed to be more of a valuable
contribution than replies that do not.
</p>
<h4>Respondee likes</h4>
<p>
The number of times in the last month the user replied to
someone else's comment and that person then liked the reply.
Likes to replies are not necessarily a positive thing, but if
the person you're replying to approves the reply, that's a very
good sign. Of course it's also common in a debate for neither
side to like the other side's comments, but the debate still can
be valuable.
</p>
<h4>OP likes</h4>
<p>
The number of times in the last month the user replied on a
thread and the original poster that started the thread liked the
reply. While there is no formal concept of "ownership" of a
thread, conventionally the original poster is assumed to have
started the thread for a reason, and making replies that do not
fulfil that purpose are bad etiquette. Getting approval from
the original poster therefore is a good sign that the user is
posting replies that are wanted.
</p>
<h4>Reply guy score</h4>
<p>
A <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reply_guy">"reply
guy"</a> is a common Internet phenomenon of people (disproportionately male)
posting unwanted comments on other (disproportionately female)
people's threads, derailing the
conversation. This score loosely approximates this phenomenon,
as the ratio betwen the number of replies and the sum of likes,
respondee likes, and OP likes. This formula gives extra weight
to particularly relevant likes: a reply to a top-level post that
is liked by the original poster scores the maximum of 3
"points". A score above 1.0 might indicate cause for concern
for moderators.
</p>
<p>
Since this is indicative of long-term behaviour, the score is
calculated over a month instead of 24 hours.
</p>
