While it´s true that there have been political connotations that were born out of that drama, said principles are visible in the core rules of each one of them so we have to correlate it with politics whether one likes it or not.

So, I had the idea at first to make a representation of these sites as if it were a parliament. Instead of going for usual tags, I would like to introduce a more neutral concept in order to embark on this matter: intrusiveness from the staff members.

From the left to the right: the most moderated/regulated boorus to the most indifferent when it comes to the regulation of each MLP picture (I don´t know on which side Furbooru should be placed: either nearer Manebooru or the alts. Considering the amount of overlap with the alts, I have decided to put it more in the middle but there´s practically no difference between that site and Derpibooru at its core because of its staff members)

At first, I had this idea in mind, hence you see a column that shows the theoretical representation but in the end, that total number can vary because we are relying on the top player as the baseline for setting up the other players. I used 300 but any other number can be applied in order to calculate the relative percentages. What I do throughout the whole process is that I take Derpibooru as if it were the constant that will serve for making up the divisions.

On the second column, I divide Derpi´s rank with the rank of each alt and on the 4th column, I multiply that number by 300. Then, I make the whole sum and by resorting to the total number, I obtain the relative percentage. A certainly flawed method that doesn´t rely on any statistics formula but it´s useful enough for exposing the conversion of each rank for calculating the percentages. Pic related displays the whole table for the 20% case scenario.

Now, what do I mean with said 20%? Here is the main problem that makes these charts certainly skewed. A controlled variable but still an error nonetheless.
