On average, how often do you recommend a thread for the Greatest page?

And do you think you do it more or less than the average recommender does?

Admin - if you've ever collected statistics on this, I'd love to know.

7. I'm pretty free with recommendations...

Moreso with threads that have less than 3 votes. It's useful to tag threads that are worth reading for other DUers for the "votes" column.

As far as 3+ votes I only bump something up higher at that point if it's a story/meme that needs to get out to build awareness, or particularly well written or funny.

IMO we need more people to bother with K&Ring stuff. I've seen some pretty good/important threads plunge because people are too passive. I guess for some, DU is more like TV than a place to interact.
