Could fluther use a Jelly Value rating?

Asked by ABoyNamedBoobs03 (7543points) September 30th, 2009

I know lurve is a good indication of how long you’ve been around, and a testament to how well you answer overall, but it doesn’t really tell the whole story. For instance, someone could have 10k lurve, but maybe they answered 7k questions and asked something like 300 questions or something of that nature. as opposed to someone who has 2k lurve but only a thousand responses. I think it would be a cool and neat way to kind of gage how many valued answers they give as opposed to unhelpful or poor ones. It wouldn’t have to be complicated, something like
(Lurve/questions asked)/(Lurve/total responses)

My stats: questions asked: 28
responses written: 2219
Lurve: 6433

my value rating= 79.2415

or Andrew’s hope you don’t mind

questions asked: 306
responses written: 2568
Lurve:9339
value= 8.3924

now obviously that’s just an example, and I have no idea whether a low or a high value rating would be better in this case, I’m just too lazy to actually work out a functioning equation for it, but you get the general gist of things. what do you think?
