Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards yet and that's somethiong that I hope will change soon. @theymos @Cyrus, what are you guys waiting for?
Post activity per local board during October 2023During October, 22105 posts were made across 18 local boards which is a significant increase compared to a September's numbers (18741) which is a 18% increase and iirc one of the best results in a while. I guess combination of summer being over and market looking better helped with that increase and I hope it continues the same in the months ahead.
When it comes to the most active boards, no surprise there: Russian is still far ahead the other, with Turks at the 2nd and Nigerians at the high 3rd spot. It is unusual to see German board being the 6th most active one as they were in the top 3 for the majority of time I nam doing doing these overviews and I hope that they can recover.
Like at the top, no changes at the other side either with the standard three names at the bottom.

Active members per local board during October 2023In the above mentioned period 1504 members wrote at least 1 post on one of the local boards which is a noticeable increase compare to a month before and 1355 active members. Once again Russian local board had by far the most active members, with Nigerian at the 2nd and Indonesian at 3rd.
Its important to mention the Nigerian growth as at the begining of the year they had less than 90 active members and now that number doubled, with the tendency to keep increasing while Indonesians are not doing bad either in that regard.
Local board members per amount of posts during October 2023When it comes to the percentage of members who wrote only 1 post in their board during above mentioned period, Indian is the leader with 71%, followed by Romanian (64%) and Greek (55%). At the same time, Croatian has only 14% of such members while Nigerian and Indonesian share the 2nd least with 21%.
Regarding the 2-9 posts bracket, Polish board is the leader with 56%, followed by Bangladesh (46%) and Russian (43%) local boards. Likewise, Greek local, board has ther lowest percentage of such members (only 9%), followed by Romanian (18%) and Portuguese (19%) local boards.
In the 10+ posts bracket, Turkish board is the leader with 50% of such members, while Portuguese is 2nd with 49% and Nigerian 3rd with 47%. At the same time, Indian board has the lowest percentage (13%), followed by Romanian (18%) and Polish (22%) local boards.
Merit shared per local board during October 2023During October, 10296 merit was shared across local board, which is a slight increase compared to month before ( 9835). I have to say that I thought increase will be bigger than it was due 18% more written posts, but this is a still good number and i will take any increase. After all, only a few local boards still struggle with merit while majority are in a pretty good situation.
Once again Russian board is at the top, but this time Indonesian came really close and 2097 merit shared in a month must have been their recors so far. I know that @hugeblack was helping them lately (and other local boards that lacked merit) via his thread but I think someone else might have started sharing merit there as well. Another positive surprise is Indian local board that had only 56 merit shared in September while last month that number increased to 318 which is a very good result.
Regarding the boards that had decrease, German board used to be higher and even overtook Russian board for a coiple of months, but for whatever reason thjey dropped below 1k which is still ok givenb their number of posts.
Merit/Post ratio per local board for October 2023Since both number of posts and number of merit went up (with number of posts went up more), generally speaking there's no big diffeence compared to previous month. What is noticeable though is that 12 month average ratio is higher for many boards than the last month's which is not a good trend. But, even with that, merit/post ratio is still pretty solid for majority of boards, while some like Phillipines could definitely use outside help.
Regarding the boards with the highest ratio, for the first time ever Indonesian is at the top with an 1.24 ratio, which is even more impressive considering their activity as smaller boards like Arabic tend to have high ratio.
Percentage of merited posts across local boards during October 2023Something strange happened in Indian board as they somehow managed to have 55% percent of posts that receive at least 1 merit which is the highest percentage I saw so far, esepcially since their usual number is much lower and it its around 20%. It would be interesting to hear someone from that board how they managed to achieve that and is their post quality increased that much or something else caused it. At the same time, polsih is not that far ahead but it is kinda normal for less active boards to have higher percentage of merited posts.
Merit senders and receivers per local board during October 2023During the above mentioned period, 555 members sent the merit across local boards while 655 received. Compared to September's numbers (517/552) that is a slight increase which is not a surprise given the increase in the amount of merit shared and the overall oncrease of post activity.
Merit per transaction across local boards during October 2023And the last in this series of charts, merit per transanction so we can get a better idea or each local board meriting habits. Once again, less active boards are at the top but the most active one (Russian) is not that far either.
The most active members per local board during October 2023Last but not the least, in this month's local board overview, list of the most active member per local board as they are the ones most responsible for keeping their local boards alive. As per usual, joker_josue from the Portuguese local board has been the most active with 306 posts, followed by Smartprofit (287) and BVeyron (237) from Russsian local board.
