LoyceV, would you be able to calculate the sum of all trust scores of one's "excluders"? Or sum of merit scores? Perhaps do the same for "includers" and then calculate the difference. Or some sort of other metric in addition to the number of exclusions, which is heavily skewed by sockpuppets and bus-and-bicycle schemes.

None of that means anything when 15 people have sent 20.7% of all merit ever sent.

All any of that would be would be a reflection of the opinions of those 15 people....

Well, if receiving merits from top 15 means reflecting their opinion then stop arguing with me and toe the line.

Or maybe you're wrong and should reconsider turning every thread into your DT/merit whinefest.

I am just pointing out that considering that who is on DT is ultimately based on merit, and that 15 people have given out over 20% of all merit, any trust or merit stat is going to be skewed heavily towards what those 15 people want.

Some of these people are trustworthy, others, not so much, but none of them have come close to demonstrating it is appropriate to having anywhere near the amount of influence they have.
