Topic: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity - page 10. (Read 18450 times)

Okay, and that means, it can be fixed once those active posters bounced back. And in most time those newbies, post things that are not relevant, posting odd things and the old ones to correct them making communication boring. Though,
With time they will understand the system and flow with you guys. As you are there things are under control.
Thank you very much for your recommendation. I appreciate.

We are having a few problems on the Italian board: we had a few “bad motnhs” and apparently we are not able to get back to our usual levels, as many active poster simply are now less active and the newcomers weren't able to get the flow going.

On the other hand the Nigerian board is doing really well. Kudos to your community!

This is awesome. Thank you @Rikafip great work. I was not thinking that Nigeria Local Board would take 5th post per local board, and "Active Members in each local board, Nigeria took 3rd with 121. And I know that night Nigerian local board can't come up with the merit stat, and was also surprised to see that we 6th position in it. And I also appreciate all the Active Members in each local board, keep the fire burning. @fillippone thank for your brief description of the graph you presented. And the gap Russian gave other boards is too big. I was thinking that Italy would pass Nigeria in the active members column but I was surprised to see that Nigeria see them. And they pass Nigeria in the merit stat and that means Nigerians in the forum are trying their best.

Thanks for your comments and nice words.

The problem with a cumulative approach is that there would be no race.

Russian would be forever first, Turkey second, etc, all would stay in the same positons all the time, and the race would be just among some small boards.

Now, with rolling amounts every month, any board can get to the top position at any time.

Thanks for sharing this race in your local board.

Nice work!
It is a fun animation to see, even if you have to squint your eyes to see the Italian board.
Usually, this kind of graph is used for "cumulative" events rather than "rolling amounts", like the monthly posts on a board, but the graph is good enough to catch a few trends.
Namely, the number of posts on the forum almost halved from the first months of the graph; this is not necessarily a bad thing, as maybe it is an effect of reduced spam activity, but definitely, something to keep an eye on.
The percentage of posts made on local boards to the total post is instead more or less stable, and this is a good sign!

It's normal... Many times winter in the southern hemisphere almost feels like summer, that we forget the differences.  

But, since I'm from Portugal, this summer... and a very hot summer!  
Fancy a cold beer? 🍺🍺🍺

I keep forgetting about southern hemisophere. 


Cheers, I updated the overview with your animated chart.

Nice work Rikafip

here is the updated race chart

It's only summer in Portugal (northern hemisphere), in Brazil (southern hemisphere) it's winter. But in Brazil it's "summer" all year round... 

That was exacty my thought too when I saw Spanish local board merit number, that decrease was caused by you as I noticed that you haven't been so active lately but good to hear that you are sharing your merit as usual.


Its understandable since its summer, I am sure that you Portuguese/Brazil ppl have much better things to do during summer than spam the forum. 

Thanks @Rikafip for compiling data from another month of activity on the forum.

Indeed, the fact that the Portuguese local boards reduced their activity a little last month, made my participation there also drop a little. This month of August may be following the same path.

I look forward to seeing the result in August.

Sometimes there are minor things that go under the radar from a broader perspective, but that are interesting to see from a specific local board’s perspective. For example, going over the Spanish local board’s data, July 2023 marker an ATL in terms of sent Merits, totalling 95 (410 the previous month). At first I thought that the result was "my doing" (reduced activity), but I awarded roughly the same amount of Merits on both months being compared.

Now digging a bit further into the data, it turns out that the total number of posts for July is 286 vs 280 in June; both months on par, though a drop from previous months. Senders for July are 15 vs 18 during June – similar figures, but the key lies precisely here.

It turns out that another local Spanish Merit Source took a leap during July (having being the largest meriter during June). Since I haven’t been very active, his meriting became more much more relevant overall for the local board, and a month’s absence had the lateral effect of leading to our ATL.

What I wanted to point out is twofold: On the one hand, we (not Rikafip) sometimes to do a bit of extra digging in order to make sense of the data being shown. On the other, some local boards are (logically) sometimes sensitive in terms of Merits to a couple of people on their own.

Its time for yet another brief monthly overview of the local boards activity. I initially planned to release it much sooner but as usual real life got in a way so here it is now. As always, charts and table are made with the help of @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space and images uploaded via joker_josue's TalkImg.

Communities marked with * (Pakistan and Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards as of yet but I do hope that will change in the near future as these guys definitely deserve it based on their numbers.

Post activity per local board during July 2023

During above mentioned period 15864 posts were written across 18 local boards which is a slight increase from June's numbers (15319). Since we are in the middle of summer I think that these are very good numbers as I expected them to go down since people usually have betetr things to do in this period of the year.

As always, Russian board is far ahead the others, followed by Turkish and German local boards and Indonesian and Nigerian managed to get into top 5 (last month 5th one was Portuguese but they dropped down one spot this month).

When it comes to the least active local boards, no surprise there as bottom 4 remained the same like during June. Keep in mind that there are several half-dead/dead local boards that weren't included in this overview so situation looks worse for those less active boards that=n it actually is as there are those that are far worse than them.

Local Board post race

Number of active members per local board during July 2023

During last month 1301 member wrote at least one post across local boards, which is an increase compared to month before during which 1272 members were active. As with post number, this increase was a surprise for me as I expected it to go down further, but I am glad to be proven wrong.

Russian board once again has by far the most active members (basically  1/3 of all local board members), followed by German (125) and Nigerian (121) local boards. As with post number, pretty much the same local boards ocuppy the left part of this chart as well.

Local board members per amount of posts during July 2023

When it comes to percentage of members that wrote only 1 post during July 2023, Greek board is far ahead of others with 75% of such members, followed by Indian and Romanian local boards that both had 50%. On the other hand, Nigerian local board had only 20% of those members, followed closely by Indonesian and Turkish boards that both had 21%.

In the 2-9 posts bracket, Bangladesh board is aheasd with 55%, followed by Nigerian (44%) and Pilipinas (43%). At the same time, Greek board had no such members, while Croatian, Polish and Italian share the 2nd spot with 27% of such members.

When talking about members who wrote 10+ posts during last month, Croatian local board had highest percentage of those (50%), followed by Turkish (48%) and Italian (41%) local boards. At the same time, Romanian board had only 10% of such members (translated 1 member), followed by Bangladesh(15%) and Indian (18%) local boards.

Merit shared per local board during July 2023

Since we had an increase of amount of posts, no surprise that the same thing happened with merit; during last month 7769 merits were shared across 18 local boards which is a noticeable increase compared to month before during which 6939 merits were shared.

This month we have a big surprise as Russian board is not at the top, since members of German board managed to share 1865 merits which is their all time high. I don't know what happened there, but keep it up guys! Russian board is still at the high 2nd spot with their standard number of merits, followed by Indonesian local board that still manages to keep their numbers high.

Merit senders and receivers per local board during July 2023

Straightforward chart that is sorted by the amount of merits shared. Once again Pilipinas and especially Nigerian local boards stick out that indicated high number of people involved in merit system compared to the total amount of merit shared.

---

Merit/Post ratio per local board for July 2023

Since both amount of posts and merit slighly got increased during above mentioned period, no surprise that generally there's no big change here compared to the month before. Two boards still stand out though; German having more than a double of their standard merit/post ratio for 12 months period, and Spanish board having ~60% lower ratio than in the 12 months period.

---

Merit per transaction across local boards during July 2023

Once again, this relatively new chart that shows the difference between local board when it comes to meriting habits. Its no surprise that boards with the highest merit/post ratio usually have the highest merit/transaction ratio, in this case German and Arabic, but even here some slight deviations are possible like in Indonesian and Pilipinas case.

The most active members per local board during July 2023

As always, its time to mention all those members that are keeping their local boards alive. Once again Portuguese member joker_josue has been the most active one with 282 posts written in his local board during last month, but this time Smartprofit from Russian board came very close with 280 posts while Ratimov from the same board was at the 3rd spoot with 218 posts written in the above mentioned period.

Small update: Every once in a while I have to check one of my older reports and it usually ends by me checking old pages of this thread, not knowing where exactly particular overview is (since I am often too bored to check Google drive). So, in order to make it easierr for me and everyone else to check previous months overviews, I added the list of monthly overviews to the first post of this thread.

Ideally that should be added to reserved post, but since I didn't think in advance and make one, I have to do it this way. When the list becomes too long I will  reorganize it a little bit and create table for an easier access. 

In my opinion the way you are posting is great, there are already 7 charts + top 10 users + the animated chart made by bitmover
The coolest data are here

It was just a number that caught my attention because the Portuguese board looked different from the average when I did a quick count and then checked it on the calculator

One of the coolest things about this data is to give support to analyze certain things, like what you mentioned, it is possible to have a very active board with few users, in our board there's new thread and new posts everyday with the main subjects
It's also nice to see in the news when cryptos increase in popularity and the other month it reflects on the forum, like the Nigerian and Turkish boards and the only way to see that is with the data available here 

Generally these things don't bother me, but I understand what you mean.

Regarding this translation, I noticed this. But, as you can see, I understand zero Bengali, so there's not much I can do. It has to be the locals who act accordingly, stopping abuses.

Overview has been updated.

Cheers!

Even easier: you can just ignore certain topics.

I don't think users should adjust their posting behaviour for people who use a notification bot. Bots should adjust to posts, not the other way around.

Post updated with the link to the local chart race!


I just use one notification bot, made by LoyceV. you can just make the bot ignore users that you find annoying  using it. Probably others bot do that as well.

I don't know if you got me wrong. It wasn't for Rikafip. Of course, Rikafip never mentions people for unnecessary reasons. But look at the post history of the guy I quoted in my previous post. He used to mention everyone from our local thread every few days and then other newbies quote his posts and we all get unlimited notifications. Not only me, but others also feel annoyed. Here it happened again. He quoted the username list of Rikafip's post so everyone get notified which I don't like at all.

If you check your talkimg thread, you will notice he mentioned you a couple of times unnecessarily. He even translated your post in Bengali using Google translator for some (.....), you know what.
