    So I guess this thread got side tracked
    Clearly the current state of ClutchFans is extremely sensitive
    What do you think started it ? harden only fans ?

    His thing is he is passionately defensive of the 80s/90s era Rockets, especially the championship teams, and he looks down at the current generation of fans who don't appreciate those teams or who are more fans of certain Rockets players than the team or its history. He is relentless in trolling those fans. I may not always agree with his method of agitation, but I'm on his side in the general conflict of Team Fan vs Player Fan.

    kevC like/message ratio 4013/6902 = 0.581
    tinman like/message ratio 5870/57338 = 0.102

    Numbers are clear.

    kevC is a fine poster. But for a fair comparison, have to, at the very least, subtract out post count of members at the point when the Like system was implemented.

    Probably wouldn't make make much of a difference in this case. :)

    This ratio still does not compare to the far more advanced Assist/TO ratio!

    is Lin = Harden?

    are there 90's bulls fans who are MJOFs?

    or 90s rockets fans who are DOFs?

    Rep carried over and was converted to likes. A better argument would be to start counting when the rep system was implemented.

    Yes and no. Likes seem to be given out far more liberally compared to reps. I think the dynamics are different.

    So, best solution is to subtract out post count when like system was implemented and also subtract out reps when like system was implemented.

    This should go in the analytics thread probably. But specifically to assess how trash a poster tinman is, all you have to look at is his ranking on the ignore list and just his general posting history of rampant racism.

    Hold on. What?

    You’re supposed to be a logical guy. And yet you’re saying completely illogical nonsense.

    In your mind all tinman is doing is “trolling” those fans?

    You’re in here complaining about people talking to you condescendingly and resorting to personal attacks. Yet all tinman does is talk to those newer members condescendingly and personally attack them. That’s fine to you though because you agree with his point of view.

    What exactly is the distinction?

    A lot of us ended up Hakeem level.
    Pure likes is a better barometer because you can see actual values.
