Your score on stackoverflow has always been a weak indicator of knowledge/community involvement/any other virtuous attribute. This should be clear to anyone who has browsed upon questions like "How do I perform this common operation in Git?" or "What Bootstrap class do I use?" and seeing the accepted 1 liner answer with 1000s of up-votes while at the same time some in depth answer to a question about operating system internals, database optimization or <insert complex topic here> has maybe 10 upvotes.
- ndnxhs 8y agoThat relates to another point in the post that your questions and answers are scored based on how many other people you helped. I have a super high rep on the blender stack exchange just because I happened to ask all of the noob questions when the site was in beta. I still get almost daily upvotes even though I haven't used blender in years.
