RE: KE? I Can See You

My KE ratio is pretty spectacular, but that's mainly because I traded an my STEEM for HIVE as fast as I could power down on the other chain after the fork. I also traded some HBD for Hive at favorable rates.

It doesn't prove I'm a good guy, it's just another number to help suggest what my behavior has been over the years.

Remember some of those crazy times where HBD spiked to 8 dollars?

And this is what I think is important. When people have very high reps, earning well, and still have a very shitty KE - it does tell something or at least, is worth looking deeper into.

Right. And I know plenty of users whose crypto here was a lifeline during hard times, so a low KE isn't necessarily a sign of a bad actor. Low KE + high post count and signs of real engagement = not a problem

Yes, it is an indicator only, but not the whole truth. There are days in Finland where I look outside at the sun and get the feeling of Australia, where it just looks hot. But it is 20 below zero. Seeing the sun is an indicator, but it doesn't tell the temperature! :D

As a former Minnesotan, I know exactly what you mean. We may have been a lot further south than Finland, but Canada generously shared its arctic air with the upper Midwest, and I've experienced that strange point at -40 where the C and F thermometers agree, and then there's the wind-chill factor on top of that. But the sun might be blazing in the sky in spite of failing to heat anything appreciably.

I have come close, but not quite made it to the intersection - -36C is the coldest I have experienced - which is warm in comparison to you ;D
