...which is why I linked its Wikipedia page. Very roughly speaking, it is supposed to be a measure of what level of education the reader needs to have attained to deal with the sesquipedalian loquaciousness of a given text.

And well, you could argue in a similar way that a postcount-based regime encourages pointless posting and/or does not acknowledge scarce, but quality posting to the same degree as it acknowledges frequent empty smalltalk... but then, given the prerequisite laziness of anyone ever getting involved with the board code, it's quite unlikely we ever would get such an elaborate scheme anyway.


Yes, you linked the wiki page, but what did I just say before? No one has the patience to read walls of text. At least not me. I'm a 20 year old kid with the attention span of a... look, a pine cone! /bad joke
Anyway, that page was way to wordy.
I just read the summary text and understood what it was right away... only a paragraph or so to read.
There's "tl;dr" and then there's just outright unabridged laziness.

Unfortunately, "outright unabridged laziness" was my nick name in High School.
And I'm just fooling around anyway. I can read.

I'm looking down at you from my might third place.

Not that it ever mattered.

Last view: 2983 days 		Well I can proudly say this topic is slightly confusing me. I get what it says, but not the purpose. Luckily it gave me a laugh. Congratulations on your one-eighty-whatever it is post!
