Top Albums By Active Forum Posters
by 
baystateoftheart 
This chart was inspired by Patman's "Top Albums By Top BEA Members" chart. Because people often talk about the differences in taste between the overall chart and the forum regulars, I thought it would be interesting to create a version sorted by users with the most forum posts. To qualify, users must be recently active, which currently means at least one forum post since January 2020.
Message me if you don't want to be on the list. I will try to update it annually at least. Thanks to everyone for making this community what it is!

Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.4/100, a mean average of 93.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.1.
