Memebells statistical analysis

DISCLAIMER: Numbers are all in a state of constant flux. At the time of writing, they're medium-accurate.

The average number of comments any post recieves on memebells is 1731. The meme that received the most comments was the controversial Rabbit Done Died Meme, with 7587 comments.

There is a direct correlation between how severe the rating is for a meme and how well it does. memes with the [rated] pg tag average 1767 comments, whereas [rated] nc17 memes average 2712 comments. There is, curiously, no tag for [rated] g.

Meme category tags, in ascending order by popularity (as measured by average comments received)!

[type] characterization (498). Nobody likes to think hard?
[type] anon (545). These are usually weird unorthodox stuff.
[type] ooc (1125). We're here to RP!
[type] humor (1568). Comedy just doesn't sell like it should.
[type] dark (1602). Is "dark" just too vague of a descriptor?
[type] serious (1736). Nicely set in the middle.
[type] choices (1862). What does this one even mean? Don't almost all of the memes these days have choices in them?
[type] fight (1893). Fight onn, brave warriors!
[type] awkward (1955). Schadenfreude.
[type] transformation (2076). This is a pretty popular one, but the definition of "transformation" is pretty nebulous.
[type] secrets (2084). Shh!
[type] crack (2173). Certainly MY favorite meme type.
[type] memories (2175). Again, the hell does this even mean?
[type] fluff (2179). The sappy stuff starts to kick in near the top of the list.
[type] love (2347). Ah, late summer, when a young man's fancy turns to love!
[type] confession (2379). A popular topic.
[type] romance (2412). Romance scores notably better than love.
[type] sex (2726). Shockingly, not even in the top three. Wow!
[type] horror (2762). RPers enjoy torturing their muses!
[type] shipping (3205). OTP 4EVAH



And the number one tag IS:



[type] hate (3282)! Disagree with this ordering? FUCK YOU, MY APATHY IS MATCHED ONLY BY MY UNDYING RAGE.

What conclusions can we draw from this?
-LJRPers are a bunch of horny, spiteful bastards.
-...
-I think that's pretty much it.

This is both incredibly depressing and incredibly accurate.
