13 years ago my god. I wonder what Jon Skeet is doing these days.
I remember when he passed me in the reputation ranking back in the early days and thinking that I needed to be a little bit more active on the site to catch him lol.
In practice, if your target is very limited and consistent, it's probably fine. But as a general statement about someone's behavior, it really sounds like someone is wasting a lot of time and regularly getting sub-par results.
