    Thanks :) Scoring is one of the criteria we are looking into. We need to be careful not to bias predictions too much towards high scoring predictors. We are now filtering profiles by country. Once we get to a healthy user base, we will intr

    We don't store who submitted which comment in the db. A comment is owned by all discussion participants. So, even though someone can tell which discussions you are in, nobody can tell which comment belongs to you.
