My oh my....oh my....
How to take this all in....from what I thought was some fun stats on an otherwise mundane Monday. With not a lot of helping out to be had I suppose I unintentionally achieved some very active participation from the community to collaborate on giving @Alan_K and @Tiana_V some real unfiltered feedback on what members think of the community in its current state and perhaps how we each feel the direction it should go in....the negatives and some positives?
I gave every member and every post a bravo in this thread whether i agreed with it or not, if i felt it was supportive or derogatory, complimentary or combative, divisionary or motivating. Ultimately every opinion counts. They are neither right or wrong. They are collectively the opinions of the community and all are welcome (within the confines of t of s). But it is important to remember to make everyone feel welcomed and valued and we have an obligation to treat everyone with respect and keep in mind we must provide good customer service along with customer support.
@Luddite you as always have provided me with some very interesting reading and a laugh your position is well earned.
@ShawnC13 you provided the official stats which correlate with my own conclusions and my personal stats are near the bottom as expected but my solution percentage has marginally improved since I last calculated it.
@Jb456 Thanks for recognizing and pointing out how certain words or tone can make a lasting impression on a member....luckily I'm a tough chick and if I'm going to dish it out I better be prepared to take it. Personally I'd rather be dishing out a nice homemade pie to everyone but it won't be humble pie.
To everyone else before or after this post thanks for weighing in....it makes me all the more determined to figure out a way to bring the opposing factions together in a cohesive community where a little compromising and understanding will go a long way in bringing back our community spirit. I think that this should sum it up for me...its time for me to roll up my sleeves and put my thinking cap on.....maybe @Luddite has one I can borrow.....

Some people are acting like spoiled children not used to not getting their way and it's really disheartening. I'm going to have to re-think my participation here, as it's no longer bringing me joy.
So I went and got the top 24 for the past 30 days and you can see how many bravos someone is earning per post and on average how many posts they make before one is chosen as a solution.
Added this chart with Percentage of solutions based on posts as there was a request for it
** Additional note that these numbers also do not reflect the bravos lost by many long term members that were lost with the recent archiving of older posts.
