What does the percentage number mean next to the total post number? Most indicate 100% :confused:

You know, I was wondering the same thing. First I was thinking maybe it was % here vs. % in off topic, but I'm sure it's not that looking at some of the high count hard core off topic poster's % numbers. :jester Anyone know?

All right. Still haven't gotten an answer, yet! I was wondering the same thing, too.

Let's bring it back up,to the top and see if we can get an explaination.

How 'bout it, what does the percentage number mean? :confused:

It is a rating of sorts for the moderators/admins. If you start to cause problems on the forum mods/admins can deduct percentage points until you hit 0%. Once you hit 0% I think you get banned, but I'm not positive on that part.

Thanks for the reply. Good thing I'm still at 100%. :D

Oy, I sure hope it's not a "troublemaker" rating! That'd smell a little too much like big-brotherish coersion to me--"hey, you say things we don't like you get a bad rating for everyone to see." Will my percentage go down because I wrote this? I can't believe that's really what it is.

That would be a very good idea. The more time in off topic the lower the no.
This is a Corvette forum so % on Corvette topics makes sense.

Asking questions on this is about like asking about the knowledge of good & evil.
Some guy has already been down to 3% in off topic, but was bumped up to 10%.
