Introduction

New users. They come in continuously. [1] But, I’ve heard many people say to me, that the system, is broken :(
So what do we do?
An election!! [2]

In this discussion…

Let’s discuss something like this, except with new users from the month.

Cya, and have a wonderful day :)

  1. Not anymore after the bot rampage in my main forum :skull: ↩︎

  2. Oh what a coincidence, elections are coming up ↩︎

My guess is that users on @bob_the_tomato forum believe that System gives the badge out without much logic.

Did the forum had any other users eligible who should’ve been picked instead? What are the exact stats of the user who should’ve been selected compared to one who has?

We need hard data for any kind of analysis here.

Look at this one:

He had lots of wonderful art made for everyone and was really kind, but others didn’t do that.

That user had a less than one like per post ratio, while the one who was awarded had a over 2 likes per post ratio.

There is also a weighting of who liked and much more.

If the badge isn’t working well, please disable it on your site and create a custom one.
