[CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity

[joker_josue]

As promised to my fellow local board member few hours ago, here is the brief overview of local boards for May 2026. All charts and table are made using data
The last but not the least, the list of the most active local board members. Numeral (137) and jokers10 (1310 from Russian local board were the two most active memebrs in local board, while last month's top poster joker_josue has (125) to satisfy with the 3rd spot

I still came in at the top three... 

Congratulations to everyone who participates in the forum, allowing all these numbers on the local boards and beyond.

Thanks Rikafip for another very interesting analysis.
It's great to see that our activity, number of posts and active members on local boards is growing, and I hope we will see a larger number of shared merits.
Our local king slackovic has been a little lazy lately and is only fifth in terms of number of posts on our local section. I hope he will soon ''get serious'' and return to the top, and for now I'm happy that I have replaced him at the top. 
Sir John, congratulations to you too for your activity and important contribution.

The people cheer
The voices scream

That's the smallest amount of merits shared in a month in the whole of 2026. Perhaps if I looked throughout 2025, I wouldn't find such a low number there either.
Back in January the monthly merit count was almost 10,000. We are pretty far from that right now.

Despite the drop, I think that merit/post ratio is still good enough. Well, at least on the majority of boards.

Lol! Over 4k posts in a month is actually astonishing  

It is a lot when you compare it to other boards, but 4k is nothing when you compare it to forum's golden days, when Russian board went much higher than that. Below are monthly numbers btw.

Just by looking at the graph, I can imagine what I have done to the local Bangladeshi people. I have exposed an entire alt farm, and now all of them have disappeared. This is why the performance of our local community dropped drastically over the last few months. I know these people have already created new accounts and are probably contributing to other local boards, or have decided not to engage with any local community anymore.

You did what you had to do, and I wish some other locals do the same and clear their mess.  

I still came in at the top three... 

Its actually an achievement, considering the activity in your local board.
