I hit 300, though i havent checked that category, for all i know im the 20th to do so.
Nothing against AA or anyone else with a huge amount of feedbacks but I think a better way of judging feedbacks is your games to feedback ratio as obviously the more games you play the weaker your ratio.
JR is a good example of what i am talking about - he has 461 positive feedbacks which I believe is the highest on the site however he has played 6469 games so his ratio is 14:1 ie he gets 1 positive feedback for every 14 games he plays - I suspect if you compare this to others it is about average. In AA's case above his ratio is far more impressive at 8.4:1 ie he gets a positive feedback in every 8.4 games. I currently have 68 positive feedbacks and have played 589 games so my ratio is currently 8.7:1. Worse than AA's but considerably better than JR's I genuinely believe this is a much better indicator of feedbacks as distinct from total numbers.
part of what you are saying is true, but to JRs credit, he has played 3000 games more than me...so youd expect more negatives.. and technically ive been given more negatives, but ive worked them out with the players... or on occasion had the bogus one removed..lol...
right now one of mine is a joke, and the other I could have had removed by simply removing my neutral that I gave to The Zsar for having his "housemate" clear the board for him. I prefer to leave it there though. The irony of course was that the feedback was left by his housemate in retribution for me leaving The Zsar a neutral suggesting an obvious alliance. I dont think he was bright enough to see why I thanked him for the negative, when I got it...
Feedback is a function of the number of games, activity in the chat, skill, some luck(playing those that give them), and of how many you give out...which on my end I may have left the most on the site... certainly it has to be close.
Going by the number strictly in any case is pointless... reading what a few of the people have to say is far more informative than how many they recieved. Also, they tend to be exponential... if a player sees 15 negs, they will be far more inclined to leave another.. whereas if a player only has one or two, they know it better be a real good complaint, because many will read it
Used properly it is a nice way to keep people in check though. You just have to weigh them accordingly, much like any statistic
