Right now all these topics looks spam threads with so many merits wasted.
I've been curious for a while, so I checked: Ratimov (2627711) received 1110/11924=
9.30% Merit for deleted posts and 1522/11924=
12.76% Merit for short posts. Note that posts on hidden (Mod) boards are counted as "deleted" because I don't see them.
This includes all Merit data up to theymos' last Merit data dump (last Friday).
I consider posts with less than 16 characters to be short posts. In most cases, this means the user wiped the content of his post, but this can have false positives, or false negatives (it's tricky to check the real post length with BBCode and Russian characters, and short posts can be worth Merit). That's why I list all short posts here, labeled as the number of Merit they received:

40I didn't check for posts that had a username change after theymos restored them, but if the post was replaced by something short, they're included in this list.
I ran an update for this data. Ratitrick (I'm slowly migrating to using the new name) has been busy deleting and editing more posts:
