About half a year has passed since Melinda and some active #Ecency users noticed that some other Ecency users shot up to the top of the #Ecency Engagement Leaderboards quickly even with (very) short and similar comments, and nothing still apparently changed on how Ecency engagement leaders are displayed. π§ββοΈπ€―
Indeed. I think that it would have been better to resolve the underlying mechanism that allowed useless comments to rise to the top, rather than changing the nature of the contest. πππβ¨π€

It's probably because the word "useless" is useless in nearly all sentences. π€―π

Indeed, and very few things truly have no use. πππβ¨π€

It reminds of the !MEME about totally useless things, such as a handle inside a cup and a door intentionally placed in the middle of a path on an open field (though the cup may be four-dimensional and the door may be a teleporter in disguise)! π€―π€£π

Maybe we just need a higher-dimensional perspective to see clearly whether something truly is useless or not. πππβ¨π€

I think that Melinda could use (better if from the Ecency dev team) a script which determines the average number of words (or characters) on the comments of the Top 10 users on the #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard such that users with very low averages won't get prizes, !INSTEAD of changing the way winners are selected. π§ββοΈπ€―π€

Yes, I agree, that was another good option. Bjorn could have whipped one up quickly I'm sure. πππβ¨π€

In that case, I would suggest one of Melinda and Bjorn talk to the other regarding such useful script, though I think that Melinda won't simply change back how #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaders are awarded just because of certain tools. π€―π

Yeah, it's doubtful that she'd change back, so best just to accept and move forward. πππβ¨π€

At least, if Melinda and Bjorn would talk to each other, then Melinda would be more prepared for future concerns that may arise regarding her #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard awarding. π€π

Well the thing too is that I'm pretty sure that they've already been in communication, as I believe that he was working on a script for her. πππβ¨π€
