Fully agreed.
Mar 21, 2014 at 18:08 comment added Shog9 Mod I'm much more in favor of task-specific metrics here. If someone asks a lot of questions, tell me how good they are at asking questions; if someone posts a lot of answers, tell me how good they are at answering. Ditto for edits, reviews, whatever - I want to know what you do here and how well you do it, not some generic "participant" level.
Mar 21, 2014 at 1:04 comment added asheeshr This suggestion is similar to Jeff's good citizenship metric. That discussion didnt really go anywhere, not that the idea is bad, just that the type of user participation we see is far too variable ranging from lurkers, voters, editors and askers/answerers with many users staying squarely within a certain class of participation which is as valuable as someone who does all of the above.
