[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[Daniel91]

Thank you so much Rikafip for your hard work on this monthly report.
Unfortunately, your report only confirms what we all already know, that we have fewer and fewer active members on the forum, and this is already becoming a long-term trend.
It seems to me that young people are no longer interested in online forums and choose other ways of communicating online.
The situation on other internet forums that I follow is even worse, but this forum is obviously kept alive because of signature campaigns and earning opportunities.

Despite me trying to be on time, I am again a little bit late with the monthly overview

Wonderful, not I am officially late on my Italian board overview.
On tu bright side, I will be able to piggyback your graphs straight away.

The situation on other internet forums that I follow is even worse, but this forum is obviously kept alive because of signature campaigns and earning opportunities.

Yep, that's my experience as well when it comes to other forums. Younger generations simply prefer faster means of communications and I don't think that much can be done to change that.

Wonderful, not I am officially late on my Italian board overview.

Finally I was faster than you, but looking forward to your overview. As a matter of fact, I checked yesterday have you done it already.

On tu bright side, I will be able to piggyback your graphs straight away.

Be my guest

[fillippone]

Rikafip! Where are you? I am late doing my homework, but you are later than me!
Lol, don't worry, I will add your graphs later.

[Rikafip]

Lol, don't worry, I will add your graphs later.

Haha yeah I am slacking again, procrastination is a chronic disease.

Joke aside (though I am master procrastinator), I started making charts like week ago, but then I got shit load of work so after like 14-16 hours of work at the PC it's hard to find the time (and will ) to even post on the forum, let alone make this overview. Things should calm down in a couple of days so charts should be out by the end of this week.

This situation is too well known to me, unfortunately 
Obviously we will have to be a little more patient until bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rise a little more and when we will be able to make a big withdrawal of crypto funds and start enjoying full financial freedom 
Anyway Rikafip, thank you for your effort in preparing these statistics and charts, and I can't wait to see the new data.
Obviously I’m not the only one and you have a wide audience here 
Of course, don’t forget to share this information on our local part of the forum as well.

[fillippone]

While I jokingly accused @rikafip of laziness, I reckon this is not a job for us. And all we do here is for fun.
Put things in the right order and let those graph for your spare time. (You don’t need my consent for this, and of course you are the first one to know that!).
I will update when you publish, even if it is during next month!

[skarais]

I have finished my assignment for the [CHART] Tampilan Bulanan Aktivitas Lokal Board Bahasa Indonesia, to be exact a few days ago. It's basically not an obligation to keep doing it, but it would be a fun thing to do where I can find out how our Local Board is progressing in activity statistic (post count, merit and active posters).

During October there were 128 active posters making post in the Indonesian Local Board of which there were 1150 post based on the data I took on the merit dashboard and we also distributed a minimum of 223 merit for 41 quality posters. This is a good view for Local Board Indonesian where in the last few month we have been able to consistently distribute 200+ merit to quality posters.

Another 700+ merits recovered on this last months by the Italian board! In a few months
years we will surpass you!

[Rikafip]

Obviously we will have to be a little more patient until bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rise a little more and when we will be able to make a big withdrawal of crypto funds and start enjoying full financial freedom  

If everything happens according to PlanB's  stock-to-flow model (which was pretty accurate up until now) that could happen somewhere around next bitcoin halvening.

While I jokingly accused @rikafip of laziness, I reckon this is not a job for us. And all we do here is for fun.

Yep, making these charts are fun to me. Someone might find it pointless waste of time, but I enjoy making them and that's what is important after all.

Good to hear that Indonesian board is slowly recovering as at one moment you went from one of the most to one of the least merited boards and all that in a couple of months. I see that you had a little drop in the amount of merits shared compared to September, but for sure looks much better than June when you had only 62 merits shared, which was your 2nd worst result ever.


Working on the charts as we speak, overview should be out in the next 2 days.

[Rikafip]

Time for yet another brief monthly overview of the local board activity, and yet again I am late so apologies for that. All charts and tables are made with he help of two excellent tools: @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboardand @TryNinja Ninjastic.space

Communities that are marked with * don't have their own local boards. At least not yet, but hopefully that will change.


Post activity per local board during October 2021

With 20942 posts being written during October, local boards remained similar activity compared to September and 21454 posts being written, which is barely noticeable change.

When it comes to the most active boards, no change at the top; Russian board is far ahead the others with 7262 posts, followed by Turkish and German boards. Standarsd names are at the bottom too, which are usually reserved for Greek and Dutch boards.

For quite some time Turkish board has numbers very similar to Russian, but in the last month they had huge decrease of post activity, going down from 6099 in September to 3541 posts written in October, which is ~40% decrease. Amplitudes of that magnitude happen often on the smaller board, but very rarely on such a big board as theirs.

Merit shared per local board during October 2021

During October, 9332 merits were shared across 20 local boards ( to be more precise, 17 local boards+3 communities without) which is pretty decent increase (approximately 16%) compared to September and 6956 merits.

Like with the post activity, no changes at the top here either; Russian is far ahead, followed by German, Turkish and Italian boards.

Big (pleasant) surprise this month is German board with 1826 merits shared that makes it an incredible ~220% increase compared to September and only 571 merits shared. I have no idea what happened there, but it's nice to see German board recovering like that as they had negative trend for a long time. As a matter of fact, this is their by far the best result, as the closest one to October was December 2019 with 1373 merits shared.

When it comes to merit increase, it is also worth to mention Italian board that had almost 40% increase compared to September, making October their personal best month, merit-wise. Big surprise here is Pakistan community as well, with 60% increase compared to September and their 132 merits shared is an excellent number, considering that they don't even have their own local board.

Merit senders and receivers per local board during October 2021

Pretty straightforward chart that follows (more or less) the amount of merit shared, which makes sense.

Merit/Post ratio per local board for October 2021

It's nice to see this chart yet again being dominated by blue colour, meaning number of merits shared are increasing and all those recently added  merit sources are doing their job properly. Out of all local boards, only Dutch had lower monthly merit/post ratio shared compared to 12 months period, which is a very good result, probably the best so far.

The most active members per local board during October 2021

For the end of this overview, list of the top 10 most active members in each local board (and several communities without one).

[Daniel91]

Thanks Rikafip for new very interesting forum statistics.
Unfortunately, a further decline in forum activity is evident and it is now an obviously unstoppable trend that will be very difficult to reverse.
It seems that a similar situation is happening on the entire forum as on the Croatian part of the forum, we have more available merits to share but a smaller number of posts.
As for me personally, I am glad that I am still at the top in terms of activity on the Croatian part of the forum.
Thank you Rikafip for your effort and time invested in this forum analysis. I am sure many of the forum members are grateful for that.

[Rikafip]

Unfortunately, a further decline in forum activity is evident and it is now an obviously unstoppable trend that will be very difficult to reverse.

Yeah I think that many of us (I certainly did) expected to see much bigger numbers and new members coming at the start of the bull run year ago. But as we can see, all this hype and news didn't bring many new people in local boards, and situation is not any better in the general part of the forum as well.

I still keep sending to bitcointalk all new people I met in RL that are interested in Bitcoin. I must admit that I didn't have much luck yet, but will keep doing the same.

First of all, thank you Rikafip for your graphs.
I am going to add them yo my Italian Overview.

Regarding the decline in forum activity, I guess it is something salted to the forum format, which has been declining for years. Other, newer, more interactive ways of communicating have the ability to capure newer users: i.e. Social media (Youtube or other social) of different communication channels, like Telegram or other chat apps like Discord.
As you know, I am focused on knowledge sharing, and I think those channels are way less favorable for a constructive exchange of opinion rather than pure fighting and pointless, goldfish-like memory, discussions.

I'm also trying to get my friends interested in participating in this forum but mostly without success.
It's interesting that mostly the older generation shows some interest in the forum while the younger ones are much more interested in social networks, telegram groups etc.
I think these are trends that have been going on for a long time and can’t be reversed anymore. Young people do not have the time and patience to read a lot of posts and write a lot, so they turn to faster ways of communication.
Honestly, if there is no signature campaigns and opportunities to make money by writing on this forum, I think the situation with the activity would be much worse.

[naim027]

Thank you very much for Your Nice Stats.
But, Here I found something interesting. IDK if I am wrong. here it is.

I just found my name on the list.



And I doubt there is something wrong. I was not active the whole month of September 2021. But, Your Stats Title said its stats for September 2021.
As You shared stats for October 2021. I believe it's a mistake. I believe you copied the text from the Previous month's Data and pasted it here and forgot to change the month name.
No offense, Just letting you know.



Still, If you think wrote that correctly. I believe your stats are wrong then  
Anyways, Thank you very much for that stats. It's letting us know what we doing on our local board. how much we contribute there. We should contribute more to our local forum. I appreciate your good work. Good luck and keep up your Best Work.

[Rikafip]

Thank you very much for Your Nice Stats.

You are not wrong, I made a mistake. As you pointed out, I (out of laziness)  just copy/pasted that title from the previous month and forgot to change from "September" to "October", but table is correct.  Anyway, it's been sorted out now and thanks for letting me know.

Yes, you know, @Rikafip, this is something that happens when you rush to the update! Next time you’d better take your time

Thank you very much. I hope you didn't feel offended. I just wanted to let you know so that you can fix it. I appreciate your patience. This kind of research and analysis is really tough. I saw LoyceV Doing the same thing and he has few threads like this.

Few questions, I am still a newbie learning every day. I am curious about how you got that data? Do have access to the database? I visited Loyce. club and saw he provided tons of data on his website. Are there any secret options? Don't laugh at me. 😇

Q2. What are DT-1 and DT-2? How to become a DT member? How can I know that the guy is a DT member? Does DT mean Default Trust?

Hehe. It's happened often with me. Whenever I try to do something faster, I made mistakes. xD. You guys are Technical analysts and you guys type way more than us. I saw The JJG and he types faster than a robot. No offense, just saying that. His posts are like a newspaper. But still, his writing is worth the reading time. I never feel bored when I read.

[Rikafip]

Haha yeah lesson learned, I won't rush next month.

Of course I am not offended, no worries about that. Mistakes happen, I sorted it out and that's about it. Regarding the effort needed to make this, to be honest @DdmrDdmr and @TryNinja are the ones that are really putting a lot of effort and without their tools I wouldn't be able to do any of the stuff here. So they are the ones that are doing the heavy lifting, I am more like piggybanking.  

Few questions, I am still a newbie learning every day. I am curious about how you got that data? Do have access to the database? I visited Loyce. club and saw he provided tons of data on his website. Are there any secret options? Don't laugh at me. 😇

As mentioned in my overview, I am using 2 great tools: @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space.

Q2. What are DT-1 and DT-2? How to become a DT member? How can I know that the guy is a DT member? Does DT mean Default Trust?

For start, I recommend that you read LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system].

Hehe. It's happened often with me. Whenever I try to do something faster, I made mistakes. xD

That was actually a joke because I really slacked (yet again) and made this overview much later, as I used to do it at the beginning of each month.
