This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Some days the news of disaster wrought by the desk jockeys and profiteers makes me want to scream!  I wish they could all be herded together as the great powers they are and fight bare handed to a bloody pulp against one another, before ever getting the power to unleash force on anyone else.
