I haven't hypothesized that MoR is good for LW. I haven't bothered to track the contributions of the people who arrived from MoR, so I don't have much of a sense of what they're bringing to the community. I'm just aware that there seem to be a considerable number of members who've come here through MoR.

I would be very surprised though, if more karma-positive members are leaving Less Wrong due to MoR than are arriving because of it.

I didn't say you did, but many others have.

Edit: I did say "you". I meant a general "you" (one's hypothesis), not anything you i particular said. Sorry!
