Impact of Chat Discrepancy on Acceptance Rate
How does the discrepancy between accepted and served chats affect the acceptance rate?
The acceptance rate is calculated using only accepted chats, not served chats. This means that the discrepancy between accepted and served chats does not directly affect the acceptance rate.
The formula for calculating the acceptance rate is: Accepted Chats / Assigned Chats = Acceptance Rate. Since served chats include manually assigned chats, they are not considered in this calculation. Therefore, the acceptance rate remains unaffected by the number of served chats.
