Get the Ratio mug.The ratio of upvotes awarded to a commenter compared to upvotes awarded to an original poster (OP) weighted for each user's follower count. TAR adjusts for engagement for both parties. True Adjusted Ratio is calculated as follows:
TAR = (Folₒₚ)/(Fol꜀) x (UV꜀)/(UVₒₚ), where a value >1 is considered a "W"
Strengths:
- TAR reflects the true impact of a comment in unbalanced interactions. Comments with fewer followers are augmented, further amplifying OP's humiliation.
- It is possible for a commenter with fewer followers than OP to have fewer upvotes than OP and still obtain a "W".
Limitations:
- True Adjusted Ratio assumes followers of each account are supportive. It does not take into account "hate-followers".
- TAR fails to take virality into account. A comment is more likely to receive engagement during the time when a post is most viral, after which engagement in both original post and comment deteriorate at different geometric rates.
- TAR calculation does not account for downvotes or tertiary responses. While TAR is a more accurate measure in social media spaces with upvote-only rating systems (e.g. Twitter), ratio calculations may be redundant in spaces which use an upvote/downvote system (e.g. Reddit). Tertiary reactions that are ambiguous (e.g. Facebook) are not factored into this calculation.
- "Premium account" algorithms (such as Elon Musk's blue-check model on Twitter) artificially alter views, skewing engagement in favor of paid subscribers.

True Adjusted Ratio: TAR
OP: Original Post
Folₒₚ: Followers of OP
UVₒₚ: Upvotes for OP
Fol꜀: Followers of commenter
UV꜀: Upvotes for commenter
If a user with 100 followers (Folₒₚ = 100) receives 40 upvotes (UVₒₚ = 40) and a comment from a user with 1000 followers (Fol꜀ = 1000) receives 50 upvotes (UV꜀ = 50), traditional calculation would consider OP "ratioed" using traditional calculation:
R = UV꜀/UVₒₚ = 50/40 = 1.25
R > 1, thus OP would be ratioed
However, since OP's follower count is 1/10th that of the commenter's, the True Adjusted Ratio (TAR) is calculated as follows:
TAR = (Folₒₚ)/(Fol꜀) x (UV꜀)/(UVₒₚ) = 100 / 1000 x 50 / 40 = 0.1 x 1.25 = 0.125,
TAR < 1, thus OP would not be ratioed.

Get the Dick to cooch ratio mug.It can be written two ways; for example, 1:10 or 1/10. Equivalent ratios (which are, in effect, equivalent fractions) are two ratios that express the same relationship between numbers. We can create equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator of a given ratio by the same number.
This equation does not give us the value of the unknown factor but gives us a equivalent ratio between two unknowns.
