Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Odusko on August 31, 2025, 11:03:13 PM Nice job, I was thinking that this bot will run on telegram, but hard to download and install it to be able to use the tools, that can be a pain in the ass having to install app to my device, but generally speaking toy did well contributing your quarter unfortunately I could not test this tool at the moment.
Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: examplens on August 31, 2025, 11:11:11 PM An interesting tool, this forum already has quite many external tools that facilitate its use.
This script is designed to help you monitor your posts, received merits, and weekly goals in a simple and immediate way, directly from the Bitcointalk page. It's perfect for those who want to improve the quality of their posts, avoid spam, and achieve personalized goals. However, I'm not sure how much a tool like this can directly affect the quality of someone's posts. It seems to me that it is like a control for posters to see whether they have fulfilled the requirements of the campaign signature. It recognizes several of the most common campaign conditions, such as the total number of posts, the number in the gambling section, and earned merit. The idea of automating the counting of posts in the campaign has already been discussed several times, and as far as I know, a sufficiently efficient solution that will recognize the quality of the posts has not been found.

Perhaps it could be seen as a tool that encourages spam, and I didn't want it to be seen that way. You can use it even if you're not following a signature campaign, but simply to check your weekly statistics. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Oshosondy on September 01, 2025, 08:25:05 AM Can it differentiate the posts the person make in boards that the campaign managers will not count from the ones the campaign managers will count?
Also can you make a Telegram bot in addition to this? I would have preferred it if it is a Telegram bot and it will be easy for people to setup. The third is that I can easily count my weekly posts but from the process and also do not count the posts that are not valid.

This tool will only be useful for posters and not campaign managers. Obviously.I'm just pointing out that the tool does not influence the quality of the posts as stated, but only provides an easy insight into the fulfillment of the basic requirements of the campaign. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: babo on September 01, 2025, 08:52:44 AM very nice to have the statistics I really like statistics
Of course it would have been nice to have graphs, which are nicer to look at, but I understand that this tool would take up too much space on the screen so it's fine like this Statistics are beautiful and useful for everyone Bravo Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: *Ace* on September 01, 2025, 01:29:14 PM Can it differentiate the posts the person make in boards that the campaign managers will not count from the ones the campaign managers will count? Yes, the tool is programmed to make sure that posts written on non-permitted boards are not counted in the calculation of valid posts, you will see them marked with ⛔. Also can you make a Telegram bot in addition to this? I would have preferred it if it is a Telegram bot and it will be easy for people to setup. Yes it is possible to do it as a bot for telegram but I will not do it because it was not designed for this purpose. If someone wants you can use the source code to create the bot The third is that I can easily count my weekly posts but from the process and also do not count the posts that are not valid. The tool counts both valid posts and total posts the difference in value is the invalid posts I hope I have removed some doubts as to whether the tool is really useful. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Lillominato89 on September 01, 2025, 06:42:23 PM This tool is really interesting! Very useful for people like me, but also many others, who follow signature campaigns. A very useful reminder indeed.
Congratulations man! I hope for you that the community will appreciate your work. And that many will use your tool. Question, I saw that you can use it for multiple users, but wasn't it better to use it in non-multi-user mode? Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Tonimez on September 02, 2025, 07:19:14 PM This is a very good innovation I must say and it would be very helpful across the forum. Campaign managers would find it very helpful and individuals too. But it is very ambiguous to run and all my efforts to run it on my Android through the kiwi browser still proved abortive as I couldn't navigate through the violentmonkey installation on the kiwi browser as it kept redirecting me after several verifications.
I will try back but I hope that with time it would be upgraded to run on other browsers with less ambiguities. Congratulations on this innovation, users can now track their activities seamlessly. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: slackovic on September 03, 2025, 07:16:32 AM It also monitors posts written for a signature campaign, but I didn't like the idea of presenting it as such. Perhaps it could be seen as a tool that encourages spam, and I didn't want it to be seen that way. You can use it even if you're not following a signature campaign, but simply to check your weekly statistics. I'm not sure why would anyone care about the information on how many posts he/she wrote in certain section except for fulfilling the signature campaign rules. I'm not saying that the tool isn't useful (obviously, it is) but only to make it easier to follow sig. campaign rules. And another thing. Couldn't you make it as a web page? I have bad experience with .js scripts and security. I'm not saying that your script isn't safe (it's open source and anyone can check it's source code so I guess it should be safe), but I just don't like to use scripts :) Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: joker_josue on September 03, 2025, 07:25:47 AM Although I'm not a fan of installing scripts in the browser (even if they are reliable), I recognize that it is a good analysis tool.
Looking at the images he posted, I realized he considers the goal achieved when we reach the number of posts in the game and on the site. Or am I wrong? I think that in the settings field, you can define a field to indicate the minimum number of posts that must be made to reach the objective of the week/campaign. Congratulations on your development, and may it be very useful. Keep up the good work. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Zoomic on September 03, 2025, 04:53:02 PM Recently, the forum has been producing programmers, especially lower ranked members and they have been coming forth with different ideas. It is really encouraging, this means in a while we will have another PowerGlove who will join to help theymos in the technical things of the forum.
I am not a fan of using scripts, but I see that this one is very beneficial, especially to campaign managers. It will make their job somewhat easy. Especially the ones managing large campaigns. Congrats on this.

I'm not saying that your script isn't safe (it's open source and anyone can check it's source code so I guess it should be safe), but I just don't like to use scripts :) I personally like to see my statistics, how much I write where I write and how many Merits I have received. I even have my own tool that does monthly statistics, but I haven't shared it with you yet. I would have to translate it and I don't know if everyone would like that tool. Anyway, thank you for expressing your opinion. As for the web page, I agree with you, it would be better. But I would have to incur expenses to put it online, instead a userscript needs nothing, it installs and runs on the browser that hosts it.

Congratulations on your development, and may it be very useful. Keep up the good work. The tool works like this. You enter your username, then you have to set 3 parameters (only if you are part of a signature campaign) which are max posts per week ex. 25. Max post in local board e.g. 10, min post in gambling section e.g. 10 Then the tool considers that you have reached your goals only if you make the min in gambling and max in local board. Then there are other settings such as enabling or disabling the Merit received part or not to consider valid posts written in offtopic or mega threads etc etc I might add other options too but for the moment I think it's fine as it is Recently, the forum has been producing programmers, especially lower ranked members and they have been coming forth with different ideas.

And that many will use your tool. Question, I saw that you can use it for multiple users, but wasn't it better to use it in non-multi-user mode? I honestly only put this option in as a test but then left it. But it is not obligatory to enter multiple usernames! It is just something extra that does not affect the usefulness of the tool.

Which does not happen in all of them. Some have no limit on the locations, others may not require you to post in the game area. So have only these options and limit analysis. But, it's just my opinion. If whoever uses the script is fine like this, that's fine.

But, it's just my opinion. If whoever uses the script is fine like this, that's fine. Yours is a more than fair observation. I know little about signature campaigns, and I relied on the actual signature campaigns (not all of them to be honest) and assumed that they were all or nearly all the same. But this is no big deal, I will try to check the code by studying a different logic. Currently you can do a simple mathematical calculation Do you have to make 20 posts a week? Of which 10 minimum in gambling? Just put in the settings 20 posts max 10 min in gambling and 10 max in local, the tool will still warn you that you have met your targets 🙂 🙂 Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: xenomorfo on September 04, 2025, 08:53:56 AM - Well done, Ace, you're really working hard, keep it up. i am so proud of you for really working hard to create things for the community. I wont use your tool because it's not useful for me and it's complex, but i really appreciate the effort and desire you put into it. Well done! Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: changaa on September 04, 2025, 01:11:59 PM SNIP If you have questions, suggestions, or bug reports, don?t hesitate to reply to this post! I?m always available to improve the script based on the community?s needs. Let?s keep the open source spirit alive! Congratulations, very nice and I think useful, not for me, but I'm sure many who love statistics will appreciate it. Well done! Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: macson on September 04, 2025, 10:27:28 PM Just tried this tool and it works great.
However, I think I'll need to modify the code a bit to suit my needs, as I noticed it's in JavaScript, and it should be easy to customize. But thanks in advance for this tool.

If you can share your requirements I could already make a modification to the code. As I said in the presentation of the tool every suggestion is welcome, of course anyone who wants can freely modify the code and adapt it, but if you want to contribute I can also make this modification for you In the meantime, thank you for trying it out Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: macson on September 08, 2025, 05:26:51 PM Just tried this tool and it works great.

But there are a few things I've noticed after using it: - How do you reduce the time from 7 days to 6 or so? - How do you exclude a topic type? I tried customizing it, but it seems to break the code. Thanks in advance. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: *Ace* on September 08, 2025, 06:20:02 PM Just tried this tool and it works great.

Thanks in advance. Hello Macson, To answer your questions, I will summarise quickly. The tool does not manage topics, only boards. To exclude boards, you need to go to settings by clicking on the ⚙️ button at the bottom, where you will find a list of boards that you can exclude. As for setting the week to 6 days, you need to change this function. Code: function getWeekRange(offset = 0) {You need to replace the 7s with 6s. I hope this helps. Title: Re: [TOOL] Bitcointalk Weekly Post & Merit Tracker Post by: Perfectbaby on September 08, 2025, 09:55:22 PM Just came across this post here, for days haven't visited this section as do regularly. However, you have done well to have introduced additional tools to track someone overall activities, this is a nice job and can help when others aren't active or are some how down, having many alternatives could help as well. I love seeing more things developed and Introduced to the forum.

I love seeing more things developed and Introduced to the forum. The tool is interesting, and obviously more useful for those who follow or are part of signature campaigns. Otherwise, it can only be useful if a user is interested in knowing their weekly statistics. Personally, it has saved me a lot of work. Now I can just look at my weekly statistics without having to manually record every single post I wrote. I understand that it may not be useful for everyone and that some people may be wary of using scripts. But the code is open source and anyone can see what goes on behind the scenes of this tool. |
