[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[fillippone]

But we wait. 

The longer we keep writing those statistics are difficult to make, the longer those statistics won't be ready.
Stop procrastinating! Go to work (I am saying it myself!).

LOL
You're right, you're right!

I haven't done mine yet to present, and I haven't even started. 

Let's all work, to bring the long-awaited statistics as soon as possible!

[aysg76]

Since today is the first day I could have published this overview, I still don't think that we are late. Days of me publishing overviews few hours after @DdmrDdmr updated merit dashboard are long gone.

Yeah you still have days left before you can publish the report as you were fast on the last one so take your time.

Yep, if you did it last Friday you would miss the merit data for that whole day so its better to wait one more week.

It's better to be late for these reports and present full data scope and monthly stats for the local board activity as they give complete overview of them and data needs to be accurate because one day data dump can also make changes in thr graphs so take your time.

Yeah if you have taken up the responsibility to share these reports then you have to work on them and delaying them would eventually take more time but you also need to prepare them on accurate marks with whole lot of data that you are going to include.We can wait little bit and sure you would be coming up soon with these monthly reports.

Today I saved the first images of my monthly roundup!
@rikafip! The slaking competition has officially started...again!

[Rikafip]

These statistics are also not easy to do and take some work. So it is normal to take some time.
And of course, if more important works come up, this one is left behind.

Nah its not that much work (takes me maybe 4-5 hours overall) as majority is done by the others, its more slacking than anything else that stops me from publishing these overviews in a more reasonable time frame.

@rikafip! The slaking competition has officially started...again!

That means I am leading as I haven't started with anything yet. I planned though to spend today's afternoon chilling at my PC, watch some football and at the same time work on the charts but unfortunately wife had different plans (as usual ) how we should spend the day, so it is postponed for tomorrow.

Well, I think 4-5 hours is actually a lot of work. I get the same toll more or less for my review of the Italian board, and in the end, it's not something I can do in the spare time. I need to be concentrated and focused on this.

Or maybe at 76 I am just too old for this.

If you are doing it all in one go then yes, it is not an insignificant amount of time but I usually spread the work over 3-4 days: first day I make the charts, 2nd day list of the most active members and 3rd day the text so its not bad. I used to do it in one day (usually on the first day that merit dashboard was updated) but back then this overview was shorter and I could do it in an hour or two and on top that I got a little bit more lazy.

Or maybe at 76 I am just too old for this.

I am younger than you yet I asked myself the very same thing few times when I was very late to publish it.


Work on the monthly overview has started and it should be out on Monday/Tuesday.

Rejoice, time for yet another brief monthly overview!  

All charts and table are made with the help of @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space. Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Nigerian, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards yet.


Post activity per local board during September 2022

During above mentioned period 13857 posts were written across local boards which is a decrease compared to August and 14838 posts. Yet again this decrease doesn't seem big, but it adds up over time so there's a big difference in activity compared to let's say a year ago.

When it comes to the most active local board, nothing changed much compared to the last overview: Russian board is still far ahead the others, followed by Turkish and German board and pretty much the same thing is at the bottom. Communities without local board performed good yet again (Nigerian and Pakistan while  Bangladesh activity is kinda decreasing) and given the general decrease of forum activity I think that forum staff should seriously consider adding at least one more local board, if not two.

Number of active members per local board during September 2022

Despite the post activity decrease, number of active members went up a little bit: from 1174 during August to 1185 in September. Increase is very small and all those that wrote at least one post in mentioned period are counted , but it sure is better than decrease. After listening to feedback here on the topic I gave up on the idea to mess with that chart so I won't change any requirement and will leave it as it is.

Merit shared per local board during September 2022

When compared to August, September was very similar in regard to amount of merit shared (5501 in August - 5487 in September) so that's a good news. Yet again Russian board is ahead the others (they had solid decrease compared to August), followed by German,Turkish and Italian, which all had a slight increase in the amount of merit shared.

Among more active boards Pilipinas still remains severely undermerited so it looks like their merit sources are still not active.

Merit senders and receivers per local board for September 2022

Standard chart that follows the amount or merit shared. In majorify of cases more merit=more senders and receivers, but there are few local boards that stick out in that regard, like Indonesian and Pilipinas that have a lot of members being part of the merit system, relative to the amount of merit shared.

Merit/Post ratio per local board for September 2022

Considering the relatively similar decrease of post and merit compared to the August, this chart didn't change much; Arabic board is yet again ahead of the others with a pretty high 1.83 merits shared per board, followed by Romanian and Italian, with the standard names at the bottom. Beside couple of local boards, I think that majority can be satisfied with the ratio meaning it shouldn't be a problem for members who are mainly active in their local board to rank up, which was a pretty common thing year ago (well, at least in my local board).

The most active members per local board during September 2022

Last but not the least, list of top 10 members of each local board mentioned in the overview. Despite not being as active as before, with 205 posts @joker_josue managed to remain the most active member acorss all local boards ( counting only posts written in local boards of course), followed by DdmrDdmr (195) and mole0815 (173).

[Pmalek]

I don't think I have ever been this high on the leaderboard when it comes to the number of posts as last month. Silver medal for me. But the number of posts I wrote isn't that different compared to previous months. But the trend is clear. We are generally writing less, all of us. Damn it slackovic, wake up.

Month of vacation, there was no more. Even so, I'm surprised to be able to keep first in this ranking.

Yep, numbers went down dramatically as just a year ago with that amount of posts you would end up somewhere around 10th spot and now you were 2nd. I too blame slackovic for that, even though I reached my all time low last month (well at least when it comes to posts in local board).

So this was the perfect opportunity for someone to take the first spot. Imagine how others are slacking when you are first despite being on vacation and doing less posts than usual.

Just to think about it, slackovic isn't even in the top 10 anymore. I hope he spends some quality time away from the forum.
Well, the king is dead, it's time for a new king! 

[dkbit98]

Rejoice, time for yet another brief monthly overview!  

Here comes the junky fix for some members
I will focus more on positive sides of this report, with Nigerian board getting  active members almost as Italians, so they really deserve to have separate local board, like I said before.
Rikafip I have to criticize you for not being in top ten members of our local board, shame on you, why are you avoiding us?

Damn it slackovic, wake up.

Last active today, but he isn't writing much.
It's a game of thrones and he lost his crown and a dragon...

Just to think about it, slackovic isn't even in the top 10 anymore. I hope he spends some quality time away from the forum.
Well, the king is dead, it's time for a new king!  

King is dead, long live the king
Maybe we lost slackovic for now (he'll be back), but we gained few new members who could follow his past glory soon.

King is dead, long live the king

Or the queen. Who knows in today's age how one identifies.

That's true. Users like BitGoba or Lunorael have made a positive impact. They are newbies in the forum sense, but not when it comes to their knowledge of crypto and Bitcoin apparently.   
And also that psychopath Snowshit is back with the usual bitcoin doesn't exist, it's all in your head, there is no value exchange type of nonsense.

Thank you Rikafip for the new forum statistics.
Ohh my... I'm the most active local member on our local board, I can't believe it 
I don't really feel like I've been particularly active or written much, but apparently neither have the other members.
It is obvious that we also follow the trend of the entire forum, a slow decline in activity.
Fortunately, a new troll, Snowshit, appeared, so we revived a little 
We must bring back his royal majesty slackovic.

[Rikafip]

Rikafip I have to criticize you for not being in top ten members of our local board, shame on you, why are you avoiding us?

Hah yeah, I've never been less active in our local board like it was during September. Just one of those periods when I didn't have anything to add to ongoing discussions but i think this month numbers will be better.

Ohh my... I'm the most active local member on our local board, I can't believe it 

Grats! If I am not mistaken, that's the 2nd time this year that you managed to achieve that and probably not the last given the absence of our beloved spammovic. 

Fortunately, a new troll, Snowshit, appeared, so we revived a little 

To be honest, I would rather see him getting banned for ban evading than being active in our local board, even if that means less number of posts written because he is getting exactly what he wants,and that is attention.

We must bring back his royal majesty slackovic.

He finally came back today after going AWOL for 2 weeks.

The same is the case with me, I have never been less active on the forum and I have the most posts on our local part of the forum.
Yes, it happened for the second time, but I hope for the return of the king and that it will not happen again 
As for this troll, Snowshit, at first I found the discussion funny and interesting, but now that he started insulting us all and calling us a crypto sect, the discussion with him has become pointless to me. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to eliminate him from the forum, and even if we did, he would come back with a different username.
The only good news is that the king is back, but the long-term downward trend in activity is unlikely to change.
