Right on, jon! Quite a while ago, I posted a thread on the subject of members favorites and how it was calculated. I can't remember who from management responded, but the formula, taking things into the thousandths of a percent left me reeling. I think Albert Einstein might have had difficulty understanding it. So I just gve up. I really pay that section of the members home page no mind; I have my favorites and if some of them coincide with those listed fine; if not, I could care less.
(Although, I do remember one caveat the responder made and that is the members favorites are based on the votes of all members, not just forumites - a point well taken.)
