What means when a member have a red accuracy??

People who give bad advice or stir up trouble will get dinged on accuracy. Think of it as a way to give feedback without devolving into a tit-for-tat slap fight.

Red accuracy shows more negatives than positives.

Give a +1 to guys who help you out, go above and beyond spontaneously or act as an ambassador to the sport.

One other statistic you can look at is Accuracy vs number of posts... Someone with a high accuracy number, relative to the number of posts, tends to give out a lot of good advice.
​The scary ones have few postings, but a strongly red accuracy rating... Just about everything the post is disagreed with.
​On the flip side, remember that Einstein had a 100 of the top scientists of the day slam him, when he published his theory of relativity. The crowd is usually right, but not always.

 
I dont use this "Hidden Comment" method preferring to just say (right out) ON THE FORUM if I either agree with someone or disagree.

This is an open forum which means non-members can read all the posts on all the sections (I believe?) and a Forum in the classical Greek sense is a place where one person can state his case (and argue it :) ) in complete Freedom, however crazy/obscure/oddball/different that case may be.

In my view anyone who disagrees with a particular post should state as much publicly, not sneak around behind curtains.

I have only just looked into my account "accuracy" ratings, owing to this thread - looks like a mixed bag, to say the least (luckily some of the Big Hats, No Cattle have since left the AGN)!

So, THIS OLD BLOKE doesn't use the 'forum accuracy scoring' back system at all - if I like what you say I will tell you openly; if I don't like what you say (on this open forum) I will tell openly, on the thread as soon as I can.
