Surly Batting Average


Recommended Posts

Divide your rep points by your post count. I did some scratch math in my head today and it kind of corresponds to BA in HS baseball, except for the fact that negative averages are impossible, and even in HS sub-Mendoza line hitters wouldn't be playing. By HS baseball, I mean some dudes are hitting like .600 on here. Hell, Bama Chick is hitting about 1.200. 

Of course this number will be diluted when football season comes around, and people post thousands of times without expecting rep, or even making a point other than "Fuck Tim Beck" or "Lincoln Riley can eat a dick," but I think it would be a cool metric to install.

i post mostly on the basketball board, and to a lesser extent baseball, OS, and Varsity. That's pretty much it. Not very many posts get rep of any kind on those forums. Then i go to the football board, or i accidentally click on a cloak room thread and every other post has 3, 5, 7 rep points. lot of circle jerking going on in those forums.

If I was running this place once a month we would take the name of every poster who has more than 50 posts on the politics board in the past month, put all their names in a hat, draw a name, and drop the ban hammer on that name. Could even tape the event and broadcast it on its own special thread.

I have been saying for years that there should not be any rep allowed in the political forum, whatever it's name at the time is. Single easiest improvement to the forum.

The potential downside being that politics only (or mainly) posters would then invade other boards to get rep, but I don't think that would last.

Yeah, that’s the reason, Joey Gallo
