As I was pondering various VMP benefit ideas one thing I was wondering was if you have a way to parse out the top starred things on the forums here. If so, I'd be curious what the top 20 looked like for comments and threads.
Good idea! It's been a while since we did something like that: https://mediocre.com/forum/topics/why-do-you-star-stuff-the-most-starred-topics-so-far
Maybe I can get @harrison to find those for us on Meh soon.
@JonT It would be fun if there was an API for looking at forum data. But I don't imagine that would be a high enough priority to ever get implemented.
it's weird though. threads with a lot of comments don't necessarily have a lot of stars. e.g. the fuku 3 reveal thread: 600 comments and only 23 stars
I don't star threads, didn't know there was much of a need for that. I do star comments; a lot. I'm afraid I might be abusing the stars.
I'm pretty proud of the thread I started that got 82 stars, AND was translated into a Korean thread.
