Title: [Abandoned] I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 01:39:23 PM
I sat down and wrote this: btctalk.live (https://btctalk.live) It's the forum's stats live count. Nothing to offer you, but I found it cool, just to check the activity of bitcointalk. I'm open to suggestions. Links
Others
Change log: Code: 07/29/2020: Added the today and alldates folders. I also added the INSTRUCTIONS.txt where I explain how can you copy btctalk.live. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: Solosanz on April 16, 2020, 01:54:49 PM Yeah I like it so
Did you make it? or you find from other users? Why I usually encountered 0 count while I visit it, and it's also not safe (http) not (https) Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 01:56:14 PM Did you make it? or you find from other users? I created (wrote) it few minutes ago. Why I usually encountered 0 count while I visit it, and it's also not safe (http) not (https) Yeah I'm trying to fix the "0" bug. I haven't add SSL. My web hosting doesn't providing me one. Long story... Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: mole0815 on April 16, 2020, 01:58:40 PM That's a nice idea.
But are the counters only going crazy on me? I'm getting different numbers every few seconds ;D Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 02:01:59 PM I'm trying to fix it guys, just give me a moment, cause I don't get what's the fault.
Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: so98nn on April 16, 2020, 02:06:09 PM That's a nice idea. But are the counters only going crazy on me? I'm getting different numbers every few seconds ;D Yeah true. The numbers are just going up and down like boosters on every counter. But the fact is, the guy has really tried hard to make something. We shall motivate him to fix it and go ahead with the project. @OP Its fairly good initiative. Over the time you can just inject more ideas to have some use out of it. May be people will start commenting soon with their thoughts. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 02:10:14 PM That's a nice idea.

Just refresh the page. It must work. Oh, and I'm giving the files to anyone who will ask them. I'm not hiding anything. Just PM me. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: TryNinja on April 16, 2020, 02:19:29 PM Oh, and I'm giving the files to anyone who will ask them. I'm not hiding anything. Just PM me. Thanks.PM'ed you. You could also just post them publicly (e.g GitHub) for everyone to see (AFAIK you have a limit of how many PM's you can send, right?). Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 02:34:17 PM I edited the first post. (Added download link)
@TryNinja, I don't have github. Tried to make, but too complicated. Drive does the work fine. I said I was gonna send the download link via PM, but changed my mind. I can only send 2 PMs per day ;D Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: UmerIdrees on April 16, 2020, 03:18:46 PM You like it? ;D I just took the image of the site and posted it here . Great Work Indeed. :) How often does it search for the live data or is it real time (0 Sec delay) ? https://i.imgur.com/4Gs8eee.png Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 03:31:44 PM You like it? ;D How often does it search for the live data or is it real time (0 Sec delay) ? It couldn't be real time except if I was the owner of bitcointalk.org (what if I am :P ;D ) The refresh you are refering to is 5 seconds. Now I don't know what does it mean by saying "You are online" so I can't really tell you guys if there are really 594 (for example) members online. When you leave the forum, you may stay online for couple minutes and then it will flag you as "offline". What else would be nice to be live counted? Total page views? ::) Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: Halab on April 16, 2020, 03:38:25 PM Nice work. These stats aren't essential, but it's always useful.
Maybe you (or someone else) could get some nice graphs from this page to see if the rhythm of posts/topics/new members is increasing or not. And I don't know if it's possible to have the same kind of info on the modlog (https://bitcointalk.org/modlog.php) to know the volume of deleted posts/topics and banned users.. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: UserU on April 16, 2020, 03:54:59 PM Looks nice, especially with the transition effect!
But honestly, I don't think we'd all keep this page open while browsing this forum. Perhaps if more info were added, such as most popular topic this week, then it might entice more views :D Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 04:02:28 PM Looks nice, especially with the transition effect! But honestly, I don't think we'd all keep this page open while browsing this forum. Perhaps if more info were added, such as most popular topic this week, then it might entice more views :D Maybe I should create a new countdown about Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178336.0) separately ;D Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: UmerIdrees on April 16, 2020, 04:28:14 PM Looks nice, especially with the transition effect! But honestly, I don't think we'd all keep this page open while browsing this forum. Perhaps if more info were added, such as most popular topic this week, then it might entice more views :D I would defiantly come to this page again and again to see what part of time the most users are online on the forum and at what time least number of users are online. Perhaps OP can also provide that data based upon the 24 hours data collected for "Members online" . Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: LoyceV on April 16, 2020, 05:27:14 PM It looks like you're using data from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats, but is this page still updated? The number of topics for instance is 4 million lower than the current highest topic number. Many topics have indeed been deleted, but the post count is barely lower than the current highest post number while many posts have been deleted too. Could it be deleted topics are really gone, while deleted posts are still counted as they're still stored in a hidden section?
Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: TryNinja on April 16, 2020, 06:06:59 PM It looks like you're using data from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats, but is this page still updated? I thought the same, but it looks like only the "forum History" tab isn't updated anymore.

I think the only thing that doesn't get updated from the stats page is page views. It looks like you're using data from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats, but is this page still updated?

Could it be deleted topics are really gone, while deleted posts are still counted as they're still stored in a hidden section? LoyceV, are you talking about that number? https://i.imgur.com/ZEyY4de.png Yes, that number does not determine the number of posts/topics. It determines... let's say the times "Post" button has been pressed ;D Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: Welsh on April 16, 2020, 06:54:46 PM Always nice to have a nice clean interface as I believe these statistics are hidden here on the forums. I'm not sure of the overall accuracy of those statistcs, but like TryNinja said they seem to be somewhat up to date on the statistics included on the site.
Its nice to see a new user with a passion for the forums. Trust me, it will get worse, and you will have withdrawal symptoms from any extended breaks that you take.

Well I like the forum for 2 reasons. 1) I'm so interested on bitcoin. 2) One of the biggest forum that exists in the internet right now. There are tons of useful topics I want to read. This place is worthing literally bitcoins...

(view source) Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: TryNinja on April 16, 2020, 08:16:15 PM Just for my knowledge... what is the cookie script for on that page? Looking at the code, he scrapes the forum and puts the data inside your browser's cookie. The main page them gets the data from the saved cookie and shows in the page.(view source) It looks like this: Code: topics=1239451; totalmembers=2778965; posts=54194412; members=449 Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 16, 2020, 09:38:09 PM Every 5 seconds a file called "posts.php" gets load to your browser. It contains a php function that scraps the stats from the stats page and creates cookies with values analogous. The javascript code simply calls (gets more correctly) the cookies (i think every second).

I'm not sure of the overall accuracy of those statistcs, but like TryNinja said they seem to be somewhat up to date on the statistics included on the site. For now, the Bitcointalk livecount stats site provides very limited stat types:
Statistics are automatically updated (almost realtime statistics) and guest don't have to refresh page (F5) to get newest ones. However, I still think that we don't actually need such real time stats. What we need is stats for a specific time points, start- / end-days of months, years, etc. So if OP plans to keep the site operatings for too long, the site needs more columns or categories for different type of stats, especially for summary stats. BTW, it is better if OP develops his site further and provides additional statistics that have not yet given by the forum or were stopped updating for a long time. Some of them are:
For #2: It is impossible to get the total of autobanned/ nuked users within the whole history of the forum. loyceclub provides such stats, but it only started since at January 04, 2019, 08:03:06 AM. (Un)official pages that store forum data (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5214233.0) I have a thread on this too but it was updated weekly, not real time. At-least-1 sent & earned merits users , excludes autobanned/ nuked. Stats! (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5206032.msg54210207#msg54210207) Lastly, OP should check DdmrDdmr's page (https://public.tableau.com/profile/ddmrddmr#!/vizhome/BitcointalkMeritDashboard/PersonalSummary) too. That page provides many types of stats and I don't remember them to give you a quick summary here.

If you had green back ground and red numbers then the last numeral's colours were inverted then it would still be the same "convention" signifying the last numeral is a fraction. Style is one thing, convention is another entirely. If I can make a suggestion: the last numeral (a white back gound with black number) revolves once per period between refreshes. Eg number of posts is updated once a minute then the digit revolves once per minute. Number of members once per day same thing the last digit revolves once per day. It would be dependent on when a visitor first trigers the page as to when the various counters start.

***UPDATE*** I added a new livecount. Not exactly count, but it shows the latest member's username.

Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: Leviathan.007 on April 17, 2020, 10:05:08 PM the new created posts. See:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent Or (for posts made by Newbies only): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent;patrol No dear I'm talking about a live and clean version maybe you can list them all on a listbox and put links + titles This can be much more useful on recent created threads and the list box can be like: Title | creator | Link Or you can add the time/date too. Also since this can make your list really big you can let the users to use some filters such are filtering based on a forum section Again I would repeat I know we can see all these on the forum without of any third party websites. But. I'm talking about a live version Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: LoyceV on April 18, 2020, 05:37:46 AM I'm talking about a live and clean version I won't make this.

Here's a chart:
https://app.datawrapper.de/chart/6my1Z/ (There was a problem between 874-945 minutes) First minute is in 21:34 UTC (GMT) So the most people were online in the 991st minute (599 online). Which is about 14:05 UTC (GMT) if I'm not wrong. And the least people were online in the 221st minute (218 online). Which is about 01:15 UTC (GMT). http://bitcointalkstats.ga/latestpost.php I tried creating last post livecount but I think I failed ::) [moderator's note: consecutive posts merged] Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: LoyceV on April 26, 2020, 12:13:37 PM http://bitcointalkstats.ga/latestpost.php I have a running counter at http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5430/, just go to the latest post :)I tried creating last post livecount but I think I failed ::) To make scraping easier, I've added a text-file with the latest post number: http://loyce.club/archive/posts/latestpost.txt.

Although, I'll admit I tend to not read much news even if it is Bitcoin related I imagine there's been some decent news coverage of the recent halving. It will be interesting to see if there's any long term increase or if this is a one off increase.

(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=172672.msg1794906#msg1794906)
The thread depicts forum issues on that date, which led to this: I think that it is legitimate traffic, but there is a ridiculous amount of it: ~250 requests per second. I made several changes to speed up the forum, which seems to have helped. Some changes you may notice: - The users online list at the bottom of the board index is gone. That was too expensive. - Searching is now subject to the same spam protection limits as posting. So newbies have to wait 6 minutes between searches and users with more posts have to wait progressively less time. - If you request pages faster than once per second too many times, your IP will be temporarily banned. I wrote my own caching system because I didn't want to use memcached, etc. There may be bugs with this. In the future I may need to add more aggressive caching. Note: I figure that the temporary banning for IPs for requesting pages too fast and recurrently is not currently in effect (otherwise my scrapper account would have encountered issues). Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: LoyceV on September 10, 2020, 03:10:21 PM Note: I figure that the temporary banning for IPs for requesting pages too fast and recurrently is not currently in effect (otherwise my scrapper account would have encountered issues). I did a quick test, it's working:Quote Too fast / overloaded (503) Most likely, you are accessing the forum too quickly. You are only allowed to access at a rate of one pageload per second on average (somewhat higher bursts). It is also possible that the server is overloaded or temporarily down. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: DdmrDdmr on September 10, 2020, 03:19:27 PM <…> Yep, the error appears, but what I meant was the part concerning the "your IP will be temporarily banned" in the quoted text. I’d have thought that, if that were still in place, the 503 errors I often see would have led to a temporary ban of the IP used by the scrapper account.Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on September 22, 2020, 09:16:36 AM https://btctalk.live/free-bitcoin/

How is it possible to track down online users and their posts?
Well, OP you had prove to be creating something very interesting to see and not only that it is also amazing how it works. Now, we can verify on what kind of forum we have now with users online and not online. This is what I have caught in my screenshot. https://i.imgur.com/5O23QDe.jpg Even the forum is world wide and has a lot of registered users but the problem is that only 400+ members are online. If we will going to take it into statistics 400 users online consist only of 0.14% of total registered users. So low that it did not even reach 1% of the total registered number of users here in the forum. Is this really the effect of rank and merit system? Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: BlackHatCoiner on September 22, 2020, 11:33:42 AM Wow what a great work. How is it possible to track down online users and their posts? Hi, thank you. If you go here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats) you can see that the forum has some unique stats. I'm taking these stats from that link and I'm putting them on btctalk.live by refreshing them every 5 seconds.The technical stuff behind: When you load btctalk.live, I'm loading "https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats" on your browser. Once it is successfully load, the btctalk.live's server views the page source of stats and it converts it in plain text. Then, I've programmed it to find the numbers after the following phrases: Total Members: Total Posts: Total Topics: Users Online: Once it's done, the server returns the proper values for those phrases and it starts all over again. Voila! PHP magic. So low that it did not even reach 1% of the total registered number of users here in the forum. Is this really the effect of rank and merit system? I would say that no, it's not. Although, thousands of these accounts have been created for earning purposes only. If you start searching some topics you can see newbies shitposting their (probably) scamming sites. They get quickly banned, but they register again with new usernames. I don't know why you mentioned the merit system. It is just a number that shows that some people found posts of a member useful. I don't think that you can abuse the merit system. It was created for this very purpose.Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: SFR10 on September 22, 2020, 03:33:13 PM I was going over some of the links and it looks like the following page is no longer functioning properly.
Hi guys, I introduce you the Today's Stats (https://btctalk.live/today)! I added to count the statistics (posts, topics, registrations) everyday. After some days I will add to choose a specific day to see what happened then. I added to insert a specific date to see it's statistics (https://btctalk.live/today/).

Everything was working normally (For example daily online activity still works). That's why I decided to turn today's stats down.

Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: hosseinimr93 on October 06, 2020, 05:18:51 PM ^ I made this quick rank calculator. I haven't styled anything yet, because I want to be sure that it calculates the date properly. Can any mods/legendaries confirm it? I am neither moderator nor legendary. But I tested this. ;)For reaching junior member, excluding merit, you need 30 activity. If you make 1 post per day, it takes 30 days to get 30 activity and become a junior member. I entered today's date. It says that I will become a junior member 44 days later. I also think that it would be better to remove the word "average". Assume that I make 30 posts on day 1 and make no post on days 2-30. In the first 30 days, I have made 1 post per day on average. In this case, I cannot become a junior member. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: TryNinja on October 06, 2020, 05:34:46 PM For reaching junior member, excluding merit, you need 30 activity. If you make 1 post per day, it takes 30 days to get 30 activity and become a junior member. It actually requires you to post 30 times between 3 periods of activity (which are each 14 day long), at least once on each one of them. So, the answer is more complex than that. I already gave a better explanation here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.msg55078926#msg55078926).I entered today's date. It says that I will become a junior member 44 days later. If you post at the beginning of an activity period, it will actually take you 42 days (3 periods of 14 days). While, if you post at the last day, it will take you 29 days (explained in my other post). The right answer is: it will take you from 29 to 42 days if you make exactly 1 post per day. 29 if you start the first day of a period, 30 if you start at the second day, etc... Here is a spreadsheet with the forum activity periods: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12saLhlUoqIdairxzuSPu6EYGrt7FN2lOstO1yDjCEbA/edit#gid=1324892580 edit: the calcuations above are wrong, see the following post. Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: hosseinimr93 on October 06, 2020, 06:17:54 PM --------- A = min (p , 14*n) in which A = Activity p = post count, n = number of two-week activity periods in which the user has made at least 1 post. Case A: someone makes exactly 1 post per day and the first post is made in the first day of the activity period. Day 1: p=1, n=1 ---> A=1 (The first day of the first period) Day 2: p=2, n=1 ---> A=2 ... ... ... Day 14: p=14, n=1 ---> A=14 Day 15: p=15, n=2 ---> A=15 (The first day of the second period) Day 16: p=16, n=2 ---> A=16 ... ... ... Day 28: p=28, n=2 ---> A=28 Day 29: p=29, n=3 ---> A=29 (The first day of the third period) Day 30: p=30, n=3 ---> A=30 It took 30 days to become a junior member Case B: someone makes exactly 1 post per day and the first post is made in the last day of the activity period. Day 1: p=1, n=1 ---> A=1 (The last day of the first period) Day 2: p=2, n=2 ---> A=2 (The first day of the second period) Day 3: p=3, n=2 ---> A=3 ... ... ... Day 14: p=14, n=2 ---> A=14 Day 15: p=15, n=2 ---> A=15 Day 16: p=16, n=3 ---> A=16 (The first day of the third period) Day 17: p=17, n=3 ---> A=17 ... ... ... Day 28: p=28, n=3 ---> A=28 Day 29: p=29, n=3 ---> A=29 Day 30: p=30, n=4 ---> A=30 (The first day of the fourth period) It took 30 days to become a junior member In both cases, it took 30 days to become a junior member. Since I don't want to bump the other topic, I reply to your post in that topic here. "If a brand new member posts everyday, after how many days will he get the Jr Member rank?" - Answer: At least 29 days. Posting at least once in the last day of one of the 14 days period (+14 potential activity) and posting at least once in the next 2 periods (+14 x 2 potential activity) = total of 42 potential activity. Then, making at least 30 posts and getting 1 merit. No, At least 16 days. Below is what needed to do. 1. Register to the forum at last day of a two-week activity period and make at least 1 post in that day. 2. Make at least 1 post in the period 2. 3. Make 28 posts at first day of period 3. (Because 2 posts have been already made) Title: Re: I created the Bitcointalk Stats Live Counter Post by: TryNinja on October 06, 2020, 06:53:38 PM ~ You are actually correct. I hate dealing with dates. ???That's a very specific situation, though. Most people won't wait til the last day of a period to do that, so it will probably take longer for them (since registration date). In the worst case, it will indeed take 29 days so he can get enough activity (starting at the first day of a period, + 28 days til the 3rd period = 29 days).

The tool shows how volatile the forum is and to what extent contents are been created and comments been made on existing posts. It's amazing to see that the available posts count on the forum is over 55M and counting, wow! It's pretty exciting to watch the online member count and how active the users come off and on, the traffic is quite a thing. What I find inappropriate is the the guessing of private key package. Why would any one need that. If it could be used in finding lost private keys, it could also be used in hacking wallets. Perhaps it's works in a different way, I don't know.

Today and Alldates are back again after a break (some issues). Stats from 09/09/2020 until 11/14/2020 are not available. Speaking of issues, I would find it nice to create a livecount for recent merit transactions. Recent merit stats can be found here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=recent), but the problem is that guests cannot see them, in which btctalk.live is based on. So I can't get those stats from there. On the other hand we have the LoyceV's database (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3078328.0). The issue here is that these are enormous files that cannot be refreshed every 5 seconds. So I'm ran out of ideas.

It seems to be a bug. Yes. That's true. I went into the database directly to see why that and saw this: https://i.imgur.com/xyisOLN.png A brief explanation. Generally, I don't save the new posts, topics and members everyday. I just save the total posts, topics and members of every single day and once you want to get the info of one day I show you: the_day_after - your_day Example for 2021-01-21's members: members = 3052229 (which are the total members of 01/22) - 3046556 (which are the total members of 01/21) = 5673 The day after is not written on the list (https://btctalk.live/alldates/) until 01/23/2021 - 00:00 UTC. Now, I don't understand why it wrote zero for everything in 2021-01-17. It must be a web hosting error? Or mine? I don't know.

It most likely thinks your script is a bot (which it is TBH) and then presents it a captcha that it doesn't have a chance at solving, at first load. People mainly use it to verify all the visitors are human.

Nope, the Statistics Center (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats) shows Cloudflare's "Checking your browser"-page on my normal browser too (when I click it for the first time).

Yes, but they usually do this for “heavy” pages. A page of a thread isn't going to request much, but if you choose to get all the replies of the thread (by adding ;all next to it in the url) a cloudflare waiting screen will show up.I really wonder, though, is the statistics page that heavy and why did they change their minds this year? Did it suddenly become heavier or they realized it was already heavy? |
