I believe that the level of engagement could be measured by quality vs quantity. For instance, if someone posts a quality and constructive question that receives feedback and/or leads to repetitive conversion.

This would indicate that the creator most likely has taken time, thought carefully,and clearly has made an impression on others. 

I would use this similar formula to measure performance. 

Hi, Mother-of-Many.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply.

I agree.  In some organizations, decisions are driven by metrics (quantity). It takes a different kind of insight to discern quality.  I would like to see Crowdstack give us tools to do sentiment analysis. As a start, I'd like to know how I can use the Community Rank to measure engagement. I'll start a new discussion to explore that question.

We modified the Posting Tips section in our community.

Click the picture above to see where that link goes.

And within that article, we have a link to Questions That Get Answers.

Sometimes it's clear that a member has read the article, and it's equally clear when they haven't (challenging the notion "There's no such thing as a stupid question".)

Coming back to this, assuming we all have to report to someone, how do you turn  "creator most likely has taken time, thought carefully, and clearly has made an impression on others" into a formula to analyze and quantify quality?
