Shame there's no option to keep the scores for that (it'd be an interesting thing to track).
We could really do with it reinstating
quite sad when I came to the forum this morning to see only "activity"/"merit"/"posts" and not all of them. a nice datadump of the information monthly would be appreciated at least sir Theymos plese.

(ok half serious since all the posts will start with dear SIR X, PLEASE... Regards SIR

)
The bold wouldn't be recognised by theymos' system...

Not to sound condescending, but it was somewhat obvious that the stats were related to April fools, and very entertaining seeing some of the replies here.
- Politeness was how many times you used "please", "sir", "pardon", "apprecia*", "may I", "thanks", and "thank you" in past posts. This is poking a bit of fun at the people who are unnecessarily polite like this.
Why poke fun at politeness? The world would be better off with more of it.
This was because lots of people here had an issue with mainly eastern people being taught to say "sir" and use politeness when talking to people above them. I sort of get why they have an issue with it but didn't seem there to be much of a problem, if someone wants to call me "sir" then they can do it, my response isn't going to be much different. Though theymos made a few replies to that discussion connoting how funny it was when he gets messages that start that way from many people.
