[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[DdmrDdmr]

That shouldn’t be any issue whatsoever, especially if you postulate to be a local merit source.

You are de facto the third most voluminous merit sender on your local board over the last year and a half, which I’d say is a good starting point:

This is an overview of your merited network size (you can also see data for other people on your board):

Since the first two most voluminous are both merit sources, I would say that joker_josue (the 3rd) is the natural choice and the most obvious candidate for the job!!!

I hope @theymos is watching

Yes, the Indonesian local board is down one place from the previous month in terms of post count, but luckily we're up a few percent in terms of merit distribution. That's something worth keeping there because it's a sign that there are a lot of users who care about the merit system right now. We're in a great position as the local board that has the most merit senders and recipients, that's definitely good.

Thanks brother for the update, I had done it a few days before. It's just that I'm still using the Merit Dashboard to count post counts instead of ninjastic.space.

It's impressive still how you always manage to come through with these data set each time and present them accurately, taking into consideration all the boards and soon to be accorded board's activities. I can only say, well done and its a noble idea to keep users up to date on the activities of there forum locale, show to them how far they've come and statistics to necessary motivation to push further.

The most active members per local board during May 2022

Last but not the least, list of top 10 most active members per local boards. Even though I expected joker_josue (who was still great with 327 posts) to dominates this list again, this time Azrieli from Russian local board was the most active one with the impressive 359 posts written.

I did an average of how many posts these guys could come up with daily and it landed me in 11.58 although 11 is numerically acceptable but mehn, that's a lot of post. And that's supposedly for only the local boards.
It's always a pleasure to see that the Nigerians continues to furge ahead in keeping the spirit active even with a yet to be granted request. Well done guys and many thanks to Rikafip for ensuring we don't loose track!

Thank you for your support and shared information.

I hadn't really noticed in those stats. And I actually don't give any more merits, for not having them...
Making a bigger filter than I think I should, to manage the merits I have available.

I have to really think about trying to apply. Better analyze what is needed.
Thanks again for the support.

Nothing wrong with using Merit Dashboaad for posts, its an excellent tool. With ninjastic space you get a little bit inflated numbers while with dashboard you sometimes get a little bit lower numbers. For some time I even used combination of both (for Russian board post count I used ninjastic and for other boards used merit dashboard)

It's impressive still how you always manage to come through with these data set each time and present them accurately, taking into consideration all the boards and soon to be accorded board's activities.

Nothing impressive about this buddy, DdmrDdmr and TryNinja are those who did majority of the work, I just took their data and put them into charts and tables.

I have to really think about trying to apply. Better analyze what is needed.
Thanks again for the support.

Its not that hard as you really have to do is find 10 posts written in the last few months that you think deserve more merit, which I am sure shouldn't be that hard considering the amount of posts in your board and merit/post ratio.

Thanks for sharing this. Such a wonderful work you are doing, an applause for you man. Just a quick question. The activity on Pakistan is quite high. Can we have independent Board for Pakistan like Russia, Habrew are having or you can tell what else is required to have an independent Board. Thank you so much once again.

[Rikafip]

The activity on Pakistan is quite high.

That's true, Pakistan post numbers are very high (higher than many communities with their own local boards) considering that you don't even have your own local boards and all posts are written in one topic so I think that your numbers would be even higher if you get your own local board.

 

Can we have independent Board for Pakistan like Russia, Habrew are having or you can tell what else is required to have an independent Board. Thank you so much once again.

For that to happen first you have to open a topic in Meta asking forum staff to give your own local board and present them some arguments why you deserve one. After that you have to be very patient because some other communities (Nigerian, Bangladesh) asked for their own local boards years ago and they are still waiting. Thing is, there hasn't been new local board since 2017 which means theymos &co are very reluctant when it comes to creating new boards, seeing so many went inactive/dead. That of course doesn't mean that you shouldn't try getting one, just wanted to say that it won't be easy and that you should be patient if you decided to go that road. And I would suggest that someone from your community who has a decent reputation opens topic with such request.

Rikafip, thank you again for your effort and time and for the new interesting statistics for this forum.
So, as far as trends in the forum are concerned, everything has remained the same, the number of posts on the forum is falling and there are no new members.
What really surprised me was that last month I was the most active member on our local part of the forum and in fact I don't remember that I was especially active and I even think that I wrote less than before 
Luckily, our local champion has become a member of the signature campaign again and we will now see a big comeback from the Jedi 

[shahzadafzal]

Unfortunately we are continuing with the same trend; 17262 posts were written during May 2022 which is 6% decrease compared to month later. This is somewhat expected as summer coming so I guess people have better things to do than write on the forum.

Russian local board is by far the most active one while Turkish and German are holding their usual their usual 2nd and 3rd spots and its the same thing with 4th & 5th (Indonesian and Portuguese). Majority of active boards have somewhat similar numbers compared to previous one, except Pakistan that experienced huge decrease, going down from 863 posts written in April to only 315 during May. Dunno whayt happened there, maybe someone from their local can shed some light.

Hello Rikafip, thank you for all your hard work... because of you at least we know someone is there to care for orphan local boards... since theymos have left us after giving birth... I know he has many better things to do... so we are happy the way things are...  just kidding.

Yes we have steep decline and we have a reason for that... actually our two very active members got banned NoorulHuda and second was Cosmic Beyonders. Both claim the reason for ban are not directly linked but any way you know our local boards... how they work

Anyway now we are back to the original 300-400 posts... it's ok with less noise and more constructive discussions.

Ah yes, I remember @NoorulHuda being one of the most active members across all local boards so no surprise that your numbers went down drastically when he got banned.

Anyway now we are back to the original 300-400 posts... it's ok with less noise and more constructive discussions.

Those numbers are still imho good enough to get your own local board. After all, I think that theymos will look into quality of those posts as well, if he decides to consider giving you local board so lower amount of posts doesn't necessarily has to be a bad thing.

[skarais]

Just completed an update for June 2022. We experienced a slight increase in merit distribution of 21% from the previous month. It's great to keep increase, but it just depends on how quality the user posts are. While 99 users were still active in June where they made 869 posts.

Just going through history of these two accounts NoorulHuda and Cosmic Beyonders, i found that only NoorulHuda was banned and Cosmic Beyonders account is still active but got the red trust.

It raises one question that if the account was so much active and had so much to discuss in the local board, how come red feedback can make him enter into a pin drop silence mode

I wouldn't call 20% merit increase slight but very good.

It's great to keep increase, but it just depends on how quality the user posts are. While 99 users were still active in June where they made 869 posts.

Since you wrote 1193 posts in June, that means you had ~27% decrease which makes your merit increase even more significant.

Just going through history of these two accounts NoorulHuda and Cosmic Beyonders, i found that only NoorulHuda was banned and Cosmic Beyonders account is still active but got the red trust.

It raises one question that if the account was so much active and had so much to discuss in the local board, how come red feedback can make him enter into a pin drop silence mode 

Given the very similar merit farming tactic, It might be that Cosmic Beyonders and NoorulHuda were controlled by the same person, which would explain why former stopped being active after his main got banned + getting red tag makes it much harder to get into bounty campaigns.

Waiting ( Tik Tok , Tik Tok ) Hope so the update of the monthly activity analysis will be soon there. Because its 28th July and still the update is pending for the Local Board activity. I'm missing Rikafip.

I think there are a lot of us waiting for the new monthly report from Rikafip, but I don't want him to feel any pressure about it now that it's vacation time.
It's always interesting to see new data on activity on this forum, but unfortunately lately we've been seeing a constant decline in forum activity in every new report.
I would like to see a change in that trend, but I am not optimistic because the summer time is coming, when every year we have an additional drop in activity on the forum.
Rikafip, am I right? I assume you have already started analyzing the forum.

[Chikito]

if you don't want to wait, you can do it yourself by filtering using ninjastic space tool, For example,

maybe it's not a bit accurate when any post was deleted.

It might take him some few more days and it's completely fine as he has to compile this local board data and present in it the earlier form with tables and he might be busy.But sure he will do the same soon as you can see his past three reports time period was :

24 June ----- Report for May 2022
30 May ------ Report for April 2022
13 April ------- Report for March 2022

So you see it take some additional days for past months report and he can present them anytime as many wants to have this information and judge the local board activity and merit distribution.

[Rikafip]

I still have 3 days more to publish it.  

I think there are a lot of us waiting for the new monthly report from Rikafip, but I don't want him to feel any pressure about it now that it's vacation time.

No vacation yet unfortunately, just good ol' procrastination.

Rikafip, am I right? I assume you have already started analyzing the forum.

I started making charts like 2 weeks ago but then I got distracted by something urgent and forgot to do it. Will be done by Sunday.

24 June ----- Report for May 2022
30 May ------ Report for April 2022
13 April ------- Report for March 2022

Damn, this might be the biggest delay yet. I remember when I just started doing those I was making them within first few days of each month.

[Hamza2424]

I think so, that's a Quite hard job for you collecting data then figure up and then Graphs. You can take your time 🙂. But i think so for the next time we can do it much faster by following way.

You can contact or PM every Boards active member for making all this to be figured up. ( Not a new idea i better know that many of old users already mentioned may be may not be).

But Things are jsut not to suggest I'm pretty active in my Board from last 2 Months. Many other are doing more well point is i can do this Manually for you and i can Publish our *Pakistan's Community Full report as Nigeria is Publishing from a Quite long time that can help indirectly and Many other members can also do same thing with their own Community Boards so that will help a lot to Figure up collective data in short time.
