[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[Rikafip]

I see a different value from @ddmrddmr dashboard in the "Merit per Post II (Chart)" tab.



Probably, the difference must be from the account of deleted posts.

Yep, huge amount of old deleted posts in Russian board was the cause of that heavily inflated merit/post ratio. That's the main reason why I switched to ninjastic.space when it comes to counting posts and calculating merit/post ratio as month after month Russian board had the same issue.

@_Ragnarok is the best only because our local champion from Croatia is currently without a campaign and on extended vacation

Haha yeah, him being out of the campaign will certainly be noticeable on the next month's overview.

I think it's time for some of them to get their own Local boards from theymos and moderators, but they need to be more active and update their request topics in Meta (if they have them).
They are consistently being active for some time, even more than other local boards that exist for a long time, so I am giving them my support.

Imho, at least two out of three (it wouldn't be wrong to create 3 local boards either) communities that are included in my overview are active enough to get their own local board and I am surprised to see forum staff so hesitant to create new local boards. I understand that they are reluctant considering how many local boards went dead or are barely active, but still some of those communities have really respectable numbers (both posts and active members) and I think that their numbers would even go up once they get the local board as it will be much easier to have conversations compared how it is now when everything is in one topic.  Anyway, I hope they remain active, vocal and don't lose hope.

I know it's summertime and everyone is a bit lazy but I think some people are addicted to your reports like junkies

Yeah its slowly getting out of hand. 

I had said that in June I shouldn't be in first place. 
Now, losing first place by just 2 posts is frustrating! I could have really gotten first place. 

True, you were right this time, but you were very close nevertheless and still had a respectable number of posts written.  I expect you retake the first post in July.

I had a memory of that.
I think I will stick entirely to Merit Dashboard, I haven't the energy to juggle between two different sources.
Thanks for the clarification!

Thanks for the clarification!

At first I was using ninjastic.space only for Russian board, but then I started using for all others board as well, to be more consistent. It takes more time though, as in Merit Dashboard I had merit/post ratios already calculated and now I have to do it manually. Honestly, I considered reverting back to Merit Dashboard for all boards except Russian, to make my life easier and sicne I don't have as much time as I sued to have.

Thanks for the clarification!

Since you are only making overview of your own local board and probably don't have huge amount of posts deleted like Russian board, it definitely makes more sense to stick to Merit Dashboard. I would do the same if I was still making only Croatian board overview as our board is very clean with low amount of spam posts deleted so Merit Dashboard numbers wouldn't be skewed

_Ragnarok is a troll from the Russian locale who stuffs posts in sections without moderation, and all his posts do not concern cryptocurrencies. It seems that he confused the crypto forum with some kind of social networks, where he just talks about everything and nothing, as if he has no one else to talk to. Its productivity, in terms of meaningful posting and crypto-orientedness, is zero. By the way, he was recently banned for plagiarism. But this is unlikely to stop him, since he will soon be reborn again, in his arsenal there are already more than 30 banned accounts, since 2017.

Thanks for the clarification. As a matter of fact I had a hunch that might be the case as I haven't noticed his name before and he appeared out of nowhere.

I wasn't expecting it to be this close to first place.

By my calculations, I must have gone back to more than 300 posts in July. So I will be looking forward to your analysis. 

And thanks again for the great work! Keep going!

[aysg76]

Pretty massive post, I would say.
At least 4 hours of uninterrupted work, between cropping all the images, editing, reviewing everything and, of course, choosing the appropriate musical background (linked as well in the post).
Actually most of the times it's not a single stint, but a multiple works left halfway trough and then picked up again!

I know it's lengthy and time consuming task as you need to embed the data into graphical representation with collecting it from various sites like Ninjastic.space and Merit dashboard but see how users can easily benefit from it by having the information from your post.But good that you are keeping up the reports with same accuracy with community support.

As I promised few days ago, here is the monthly overview of the local boards activity for June 2022. As always,  all charts and table were made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space.

Again great work by you man and heads up once again for posting the monthly overview of local boards to the forum members.This time it was little late but as you already said busy in some other works and now you have already managed to finish up this task so appreciate your efforts for the same.Many were waiting for the reports and now July updates aslo need to be published within few days so Summer breaks are going to end up with these reports filing 

I think it's time for some of them to get their own Local boards from theymos and moderators, but they need to be more active and update their request topics in Meta (if they have them).
They are consistently being active for some time, even more than other local boards that exist for a long time, so I am giving them my support.

There are such many things which needs to be updated by @theymos including this one and ofcourse if the community support is there and we have more active users for these specific boards then a dedicated local board will just be fine for them but see how @theymos implement them.I would also like to see altcoin section sorted out in that case with other updates.

I know it's summertime and everyone is a bit lazy but I think some people are addicted to your reports like junkies

You can estimate it from how many people have asked him for updates as we was little late compared to his past submissions so yes junkies want to have an idea about their local board is performing on the forum.

[Rikafip]

To avoid complaints ( ) I've decided not to wait for the last day like last month so here it is, July's brief overview of the local boards activity. All charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space so thanks guys for your awesome tools.

Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Nigerian, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards, with a hope that will soon change.


Post activity per local board during July 2022

Trend continues and July was less active than June, as expected. After all its summer and many people (myself included) have better things to do than spend much time on forum. During last month 14873 posts were written across all local boards which is a solid ( ~8%) decrease compared to June and 16241 posts. This decrease was relatively evenly shared among the majority of boards with only a few boards experiencing noticeable increase (Arabic, Pakistan).

Regarding the most active boards, no changes there; Russian board remains by far the most active one followed by Turkish, German, Portuguese and Indonesian and same thing can be said for the least active boards which are usually the same.

Number of active members per local board during July 2022

Drop in post activity is naturally connected with drop in number of active members; during July there were 1188 members across local boards that wrote at least one post, which is a slight decrease compared to June and 1214 active members. Decrease seems insignificant at first but it all adds up during longer period of time and just a year ago that number was maybe even double.

Merit shared per local board during July 2022

Unfortunately, seems like last month was just an exception as amount of merits shared during July dropped sharply compared to June, from 7408 to only 5164 which is a 30% decrease. Russian board remained the most merited with very similar amount of merits shared, while several boards had significant drop: Croatian (239-144), Indonesian (423-230), Arabic (432-231), Turkish ( 716-4920, Italian (873-573) and the most affected one, German board with a 70% decrease ( from 1791 during June to only 536 in July). Let's hope that changes next month, but since summer is still going on, I don't really expect a major increase.

Merit senders and receivers per local board for July 2022

Just to note that this chart is sorted by the amount of merits shared per local board and order is the same. The only ones that are missing here are communities without local board (Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nigerian) since I don't have that info for them.

Merit/Post ratio per local board for July 2022

And for the end of this series of charts, let's see the merit/post ratio one. Unlike majority of other months, blue color is not so dominant anymore as its been a year since theymos introduced new merit sources so this 12 months average is not as low as it was let's say 6 months ago. Add on that bad month when it comes to amount of merit shared and you get what we see here, but even with that I think that majority of active boards still have decent ratio, with Pilipinas board remaining seriously under merited and I am surprised that I didn't see any merit applications from their members.

The most active members per local board during July 2022

Last but not the least, the most active members across 18 local boards (to be more precise 13 boards + 3 that are still waiting). @joker_josue regained his title of the most active member with 285 posts, leaving behind @Snork1979 at the 2nd and @mole0815 at the 3rd spot. Congrats ppl, keep it up!

I read a monthly  update about the Indonesian local board that @skarais posted a few days ago. The decrease in the number of rewards there is very pronounced because last month (June) the number of merit distributed reached 423. For the month of July the number fell very sharply where there were only 230 merit distributed based on the posted data.

Husna QA and ETFbitcoin are two merit source there, but I rarely see them sending merit more than 1 per tx where it can also affect the amount of merit distribution in local board. Some time ago I also posted a table about the distribution of merit during 2022 for each month, here's how it looks:

Distribusi Merit Local Board Indonesia in 2022

|	Month	|	Sum Merit	|	nTx	|	Senders	|	Recievers	|

Very nice work as usual.
This month it’s me slacking (got distracted by other things, also Bitcoin related).
I will start working on my review this night, after watching Stranger Things finale!

[aysg76]

So this time you decided to submit the monthly report few days earlier like the old days which is great man and thanks for putting it up and I see lot of members take help from the same to have an idea about how their local board is performing on the forum.As usual the report seems good and will look into the details shortly.

Husna QA and ETFbitcoin are two merit source there, but I rarely see them sending merit more than 1 per tx where it can also affect the amount of merit distribution in local board.

The thing is you have merit source appointed who are actively sending merits even if it's 1 per TX as there are applications pending for some board and it's hard for them to get merits on their local board.Each source has his own way of distributing smerits on the forum and many send 1-2 in each TX but regular giveaway is necessary man.

Very nice work as usual.
This month it’s me slacking (got distracted by other things, also Bitcoin related).
I will start working on my review this night, after watching Stranger Things finale!

It's completely fine as last time your report was ready and this time it can take some time as it's time consuming process collecting all the data from different resources and then compiling them in visual format also.So just finish off the final season and many are waiting for your report as well.

[Rikafip]

Husna QA and ETFbitcoin are two merit source there, but I rarely see them sending merit more than 1 per tx where it can also affect the amount of merit distribution in local board. Some time ago I also posted a table about the distribution of merit during 2022 for each month, here's how it looks

Each merit source has its own meriting habit as some send more in bulk, some like to merit more different posts. Also keep in mind that not all merit sources have the same amount of merit allocation which can also affect the way they send merit.

Your comment reminded me of idea that I had before about making another chart, that will show merit per tx across all local boards. Since I have some free time on my hands today, here it is.

Very nice work as usual.
This month it’s me slacking (got distracted by other things, also Bitcoin related).
I will start working on my review this night, after watching Stranger Things finale!

You are really slacking if you haven't already finished Stranger Things, but I am glad that I managed to beat you this time. 

[joker_josue]

Last but not the least, the most active members across 18 local boards (to be more precise 13 boards + 3 that are still waiting). @joker_josue regained his title of the most active member with 285 posts, leaving behind @Snork1979 at the 2nd and @mole0815 at the 3rd spot. Congrats ppl, keep it up!

Am I the only one on the entire forum that made more than 200 posts? The @Snork1979 still hit the 200 mark.
Clearly Bitcointalk is in vacation mode!  

I will start working on my review this night, after watching Stranger Things finale!

Do you want to see that the guys are updating their Netflix views and that's why they don't come to the forum?  

@fillippone you want a spoiler!?
Here goes:  
In these last episodes there is a character called Eleven! If you read that, it was because you couldn't resist! AHAHAHAHAH

[Rikafip]

Am I the only one on the entire forum that made more than 200 posts? The @Snork1979 still hit the 200 mark.
Clearly Bitcointalk is in vacation mode!   Cool

Keep in mind that I only counted the posts in local boards. Tbh, I don't think that I ever wrote 200 posts in one month so kudos to all that manage to do that. But yeah, its expected that numbers will be lower during summer.

Rikafip, is the data for June accurately presented here? Maybe for July?

Data is correct (for July), its the title that was wrong. Since I am lazy I usually just copy/paste the titles from the previous overview so that's how June ended up in the title. Anyway thanks for correcting me, its been sorted now.

[joker_josue]

Apparently yes, if we are talking about posting only in local sections. If you take into account the posting throughout the forum, then you are far from the only one who was able to write more than 200 posts in July.

Keep in mind that I only counted the posts in local boards. Tbh, I don't think that I ever wrote 200 posts in one month so kudos to all that manage to do that. But yeah, its expected that numbers will be lower during summer.

Yes, I know that.
But, if I add up the accomplishments in the entire forum, I can say that I made more than 300 posts.

It would be interesting to do this analysis...

[Rikafip]

But, if I add up the accomplishments in the entire forum, I can say that I made more than 300 posts.

According to Ninjastic.space you wrote exactly 352 (unless some were deleted as ninjastic space counts those too) posts during July, which makes you the 6th most active forum member in that period. In the same period I wrote only 132 posts, making me 159th most active forum member...

It would be interesting to do this analysis...

Two years ago I did make similar overview for the English speaking part of the forum. I often thought about restarting that again, and might do it after summer is over. Then again, I am already often slacking with this one and God knows what would happen if I start making another one.

Sixth place... not bad, among the hundred active users. Thanks for the bills. 

This is really a very complicated task. Stay focused on this one, which is already quite interesting.   

[skarais]

The decrease in the number of rewards there is very pronounced because last month (June) the number of merit distributed reached 423. For the month of July the number fell very sharply where there were only 230 merit distributed based on the posted data.

Right about that, we went down in July but I really hope we'll do better in August.
The amount of merit distributed in the local board is reflected in how many posts actually deserve it. The more users who are active each month to create posts, the more likely the merit count will be distributed, and I hope we can fix that in August.

Some non- merit source users like me ran out of sMerit last month, so I think that has impacted the stats. I'm also assuming the same thing happened to some other users so the merit distribution in July looks down, so it's not only affected by a factor of 1 merit per tx by merit source or non-merit source. I hope you understand.

This is really big number of posts and appreciate you all for spending so much time on the forum writing hundred of posts within a month as usually I also make over 100 post on the forum but don't think so have gone over 300 in a single month only.So @joker_jouse is quite dedicated in this matter.I wonder who is at number one and how many posts they are making if he is at sixth place?

[Rikafip]

Sixth place... not bad, among the hundred active users. Thanks for the bills. 

Hundreds? More like ~10,000 members that wrote at least 1 post last month.

I wonder who is at number one and how many posts they are making if he is at sixth place?

By far the most active member is a bot named ChartBuddy with 728 posts written during July, which is almost a double more than a 2nd most active member wrote. I will just share here top 10 and you can  find the rest at ninjastic.space

Code:

1. ChartBuddy [728]
2. KTChampions [388]
3. LUCKMCFLY [379]
4. Jody.Drummer [376]
5. Sithara007 [371]
6. joker_josue [355]

We can't count on this bot. Besides being a bot, it posts every hour... that's unbeatable!   

In my case, I think sixth place (or fifth if not counting the bot) is a good place. I'm glad.
