Right, I thought it was a group of employees doing this over an extended period of time, might not be a fair comparison after all then.
Not that it’s a fair comparison to begin with, I just held a similar amount of annoyance toward the two.
Can’t talk for anyone else, but I put them in the same category as PETA.
They probably do a lot of good, but it feels like the good they do is outweighed by all the bad they do to get there.
Like kidnapping collared dogs from the streets to euthanize them (PETA), or fighting the (at the time) only realistic alternative to oil, giving all the rich oil sheiks a hard on and adding to the already bad global warming problem (Greenpeace).
So is cheating, yet we still have cheaters.

That one word changes the meaning of the meme drastically. ;)
As far as I have heard, “activeness” is measured by whether a user posted a comment/post the past month, so lurkers/voters are not being counted. This does likely skew the numbers quite a bit.
EDIT: Found this nice answer from ~5 months ago. Yup, it appears to only count post+comment and leaves out voters and lurkers. :(
Not relevant to the question, but the overuse of hearts makes it seem like they play more on feelings than on logic. Kinda feels like a cult.
