I found a general principle of sgforums.com!

  according to my research, the reply rate is about 10% of the view rate
  
  so, if a thread has 1000 views, the reply would be 100. This is a rule of thumb, error would be within 10%
  
  in another words, 10 people come in, only 1 person will leave down some words
  
  don't believe, go around and see.

  chi-square is to test for goodness-of-fit or existence of relation between two data
  
  it's quite obvious who took further maths in here, eh
