Can we do another chart like this that talks about the contribution of actual content a user has submitted on the chain, but in terms of wordcount, and a general "grade" level of that work count?

Words per post, words per comment, etc. :D

I think it would be fun... but I don't have the analytical skill (or will) - but it would be a great way to... troll with facts.

lol, hmm, what would that say? Using more words does not ensure something is a better or even harder... Several users come to mind who take 1000 words to say what could be said in a much clearer matter. :) In fact in most writing classes the goal is to say something in a clear concise way rather than rambling along.

:) I think I know what you are getting at, but I don't find that to be useful criteria. I'm a huge fan of people making their point with some data, or evidence. :)

I'm glad you can understand, because it is difficult to articulate what I mean sometimes!

The key point is that it is not unilateral control as your chart would suggest.

With downvoting (also the curve, but that is a lesser factor usually) there is a consensus calculation that is non-linear and non-unilateral.
