Stat guy here to drive everybody nuts....

What about a feature where you can see the ratio of comments to likes, not counting pre-like button posts?....

Wouldn’t produce any value. The skew of posts to likes doesn’t really explain anything. Some of the Football Recruiting guys have thousands of posts and thousands of likes, but that’s because of the insiderness of what they do. And I’m told there’s a seedy underbelly to VolNation, and the folks there are just running a Like-whoring, pay-for-clicks service that really destroys everything that is good and right and wholesome about America.

I’ve often thought a better metric to decide who is awesome and who isn’t is the Friended to Ignored ratio. Or the Ignored to Like ratio, which really isn’t that difficult to compute really. I’m just not sure since those are two different plugins how they could be modified to compile something like a karma rating.

And now that I thought about it, one way to normalize the ratio of posts to likes would be to do some sort of averaging or nominalizing the Posts-to-Likes.
