Time for some algebra.
Let: m = maturity (arbitrary value that we assume is definable) m[1] = maturity of person 1 m[t] = level of maturity of a conversation n = integer number of participants in a conversation
if n>1, m[t] = -1 + (m[1]^(-1) + m[2]^(-1) + ... + m[n]^(-1))^(-1)
Therefore, as more people participate in a conversation, the level of maturity increases until it equals zero. Additionally, average maturity cannot be higher than the maturity of the most immature person in the conversation.
Examples: Conversation between 2 people with maturity m: fairly high Conversation between 3...: a little less Conversation between 10...: lots of argument and loud voices Conversation between 30 (aka xf chatroom): crazy spam Conversation between thousands: war |

| Yeah, I think he threw in that equation for no apperent reason... Obviously you haven't argued with the average noob on roblox... Goes straight from "Mature" to Spam... If you happen to have a particularly offencive one, a conversation between two people can easly become a war. |

The equation is not arbitrary, just the definition of maturity is arbitrary.
IT MAKES SENSE THOUGH |

@Hazor
"..." is just a representation that a certain equation is continued on.
For example, let's see you have the finite arithmetic series;
1,3,5,7 and so on until 17
And you want to add up all those numbers.
Instead of writing "1+3+5+7" and so on, you could just write: 1+3+5+...+15+17=[Answer]
Tada. You learned math today. |

| I found that equation rather interesting. Maturity should run on a -exponential level. As in decreasing. |

| I do believe you forgot to factor in the subtraction of constant R for the involvement of any drones, which drastically reduce maturity, regardless of number. |

Well, I guess maturity is pretty complex.
In a group of about 20, you will start experiencing more "small" groups instead of on big group. People will tend to branch off into their own small pods, where they will act immature (which is obvious, because the equation shows how the smaller the group, the more immature it is).
But, what happens if all 20 people are new to each other? Would the branching of the larger group still occur? So, would adding in a factor about the familiarity of the group's members make the equation more accurate? |
