the Stales Index
The Stales Index was computed by dividing the number of Replies by the number of Views. A value of .1 or higher indicated a thread that had sufficient interest to warrant a look-see. Its main weakness was that you could get a thread with a high Stales Index that consisted of nothing but, say, Faldage and WhitmanO'Neill trading insults.

No, no, no, Faldo. Ol' Ernie "let's play two" Banks loved doubled-headers. There just seems to be a glaring omission on the resumé of one of the greatest players who ever lived is all.

I don't know anything about this person, but that sounds more like a depraved adulthood to me!
