That's fair. I was jumping to conclusions a bit.

I think I was focused on them saying that the reason for their ranking was that they were an active part of the community and was contrasting that to my experience. I haven't used the site since I was a fledgling engineer who defaulted to asking S.O. multiple times a day. My lack of engagement in the past decade didn't prevent a meteoric rise in community points.

I do think the underlying message of "it's good to try and contribute to your community and it's not that effortful to do so in a way that benefits everyone" is a good message to try and convey. I'll try to reel back my snark a little going forward.
