Nov 22, 2014 at 2:11 | comment | added | Jon Ericson Staff | @HopelessN00b: Each dot on the graph represents a month of activity. (Click on the image for a larger version.) The last data point can be ignored since we don't yet have data for the complete month of November. The more alarming aspect of the timeline is that it shows a slow, but steady drop in participation from mid-2011. I suspect that it's not been so noticeable as a regular on the site like boiling a frog (metaphorically). I also think it's a self-perpetuating cycle: the more people who leave, the more crap the remaining users handle. | |

Nov 21, 2014 at 13:51 | comment | added | TheCleaner | To add to your "steady stream of questions" they've been steady since inception it would seem i.imgur.com/suVMdei.png -- but I think the BOFH reputation is forced upon us based on the site requirement that it is "by sysadmins for sysadmins". If we were all inclusive I could see how that reputation would be perceived, but we aren't. SO users that come here asking about their dev environment or because they're the accidental sysadmin isn't taken well. If the site wants to change this...fine by me...but then we might as well roll SU and SF together as well. | |
Nov 21, 2014 at 7:45 | comment | added | MadHatter | That would be genuinely interesting, Ward, if it's not too painful; one way of quantifying both close vote activity and close vote accuracy. | |
Nov 21, 2014 at 3:18 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | Now I need to find an SEDE query that shows who's cast the most close votes, including those on questions that were eventually deleted... | |
