Title: Is there any way to check everyday forum activity? Post by: Findingnemo on November 10, 2018, 08:11:19 AM Just curious to know how many posts made everyday in our forum so I searched for it but found nothing so someone help me if there is a way to find that.I just go this curiosity because I can see huge downfall in the posting activity on many boards maybe because of not too many signature campaigns.

I have no idea how accurate some of the data is there, and haven't checked it in a while. Seems like 7994.49 is the average posts per day, however that seems hard to believe, and I would say its much more than that. Also, it seems like it only tracked up to December 2017. The top posters, and some other data seems to be up to date though. Title: Re: Is there any way to check everyday forum activity?

The number of posts has been going down since theymos announced the Enhanced newbie restrictions & requirements (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5030366.0), less than 2 months ago.Since then, I've been keeping track of weekly changes: On average, in 3 weeks before the announcement, the forum saw 353,813 (https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1063546%2F(3*168%2B1)*168%3D) new posts per week. The forum now gets 31k new posts per day, which was 50k posts per day before the changes.~
If you check patrol (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent;patrol), you'll see it's still mostly useless spam. Title: Re: Is there any way to check everyday forum activity? Post by: S_Therapist on November 10, 2018, 08:33:18 AM Seems like 7994.49 is the average posts per day, however that seems hard to believe, and I would say its much more than that. Like as you stated, the data is not up to date. It's limited to December 13, 2017. So, the avg is correct for that period, IMO, since at the beginning, there was less people.In mid 2017, the ratio of posts have been increased significantly. Therefore, if we take the data of 2018, the data will be drastically changed. We're now at 31k posts per day, which was 50k posts per day before the changes. Does this list count the deleted posts too? Or only posts without the archival.If you check patrol (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent;patrol), you'll see it's still mostly useless spam.

Post by: Kopyleft on November 10, 2018, 12:24:49 PM The merit statistics gives an average number of posts made in the forum, and it seems to date back to 2017.
Daily numbers fluctuate rapidly and wildly as we have bots sign up during specific periods and spam the forum while some days could be quieter. LoyceV's post gives a more accurate statistics, and it dates back to the recent newbie restriction. You can use available data to draw up a reference, it depends on what exactly you want to find out.

Deleted posts are included. Theymos posted (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5032314.msg45912431#msg45912431) some data on the number of deleted posts per day.Title: Re: Is there any way to check everyday forum activity?
