Topic: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity - page 12. (Read 18450 times)

Yep, last time thyemos introduced new merit sources was 2 years ago, back in June/July 2021. From what I noticed, he tends to add new merit sources in bulk after he notices that merrit shared across forum drops significantly, and until that happens I think that its unlikely that we will see new new merit sources, even if some local boards could really use more. 


Have you tried sharing posts from your local board in Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source? I did that in the past when our local board lacked merit and it really helped us.

The script has presented the good cluster results and does it produces the graphical representation as well or you use external sources for it? The progress for them is really good with active posters as well from the board.

Yeah and flash @Ratimov has great cluster lines spreading across different members like the roots of old tree along with @DdmrDdmr and others but this is really good and needful for the progress of local board members.Speaking about additional merit source then I also doubt that if any has been appointed from a long time.But if the merit source help them that will boost their confidence and we might see more progress in all aspects from Indonesian board in your next month charts.

I was also surprised to see such a big merit increase in Indonesian board (first thing that crossed my mind is that they maybe got a new merit source but I was too lazy to check Merit Dashboard to see what's acually going on) but then Ratimov gave an explanation that external merit sources gave them a push.

I rmember same thing happened in Croatian board few years ago when we were undermerited and external merit sources came from time to time and helped.

As I just finished my monthly Italian board overview, I noticed the Indonesian board had another extremely positive month.

As I am a nosy one, I ran one of my "manual scripts" to check who was sending merits to who (something I usually do on the Italian board).

The result is the following; hopefully, you find it entertaining.



If you click on it, you'll find an interactive version of it!

I looked some data for June and you are right, we can expect pretty big drop of post numbers in some boards, which is kinda epxected as summer is coming so people have better things to do that spend time on the forum.


While spammovic is responsible for almost 20% of our total posts in May, if you check that table at the end of the overview you might notice that there are some local boards that depend even more on one member and in soem cases even go to almsot 50%.

Thanks Rikafip for another very interesting analysis of this forum.
I'm glad that we avoided a drop in activity last month because it's almost summer when there will almost certainly be a lot less activity on the forum.
Unfortunately, we still have a decline in the number of active members.
We in the Croatian local board are lucky that thanks to 1 member we always have solid local statistics and that saves us for now from being the worst local board on this forum 
We should reward him for that effort 

Hey, Rikafip, great work as always! And a big congrats on joining the prestigious 5k merit club. Well-deserved recognition for your contributions!



You are really cruel. You didn't even give him a chance to blow out the candles! Hahahaha!

Congratz Rikafip and sorry für the 5001 Merits, my bad

Usually I publish these overviews much earlier in the month but from time to time I get into lazy mode and that's exactly what happened this month. But yeah, I am surprised that no one complained earlier. 


Ye I just looked at Merit Dashboard data for Indonesian board and it looks like that beside you, few other non-Indonesian members helped them out which caused such a big increase in merit shared. Btw, you (and others with extra merit available) might look into some other active boards with low merit/source ratio, like Phillippines and Nigerian.


Cheers!

Well, I didn't do that analysis in detail. But based on his analysis, he's actually more open to campaigns in the local tabs.

In this sense, it is good to see that everything is more open to local tabs, which well deserve.

Hm, I don't think that's true, that new campaigns are generally restrictive when it comes to local boards. Well, at least not from what I have noticed.  

I just looked at the campaigns that have been launched in the last 7-8 months that are still running, and out of 5 of them only one has that 5 local board posts restrictions. I guess more and more managers are realizing that local boards are important part of the forum as well and that is worth to advertise there as well.

---

@fillippone this was your chance to get rid off "slacker of the month" title because I am not sure that you will get another chance like this anytime soon. 

I happen to think that, although the new campaigns accept posts from local tabs, they are more restrictive in general. Like they only accept 5 posts locally, against the 20 that have to be done. Either way, that's already good, we just hope that this type of campaigns continue to exist.

Good to hear that I am not the only one slacking. 


Awesome, I just updated the overview with your animated chart.


I thought so too, but luckily it didn't affect local boards as much as I thought it will. One of the reasons might be the fact that majority of ex CM participants got in campaigns that count local boards and I think that trend of new campaigns accepting local boards posts also helped in keeping local boards post numbers.

Great work as always Rikafip

I have just updated local boards race:


https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/12312077/

I added a new TOTAL bar, which I think is useful.

Initially, I thought that the end of ChipMixer campaign would have a negative impact over the local boards posts, however it is not true for all local boards. The TOTAL bar shows that.

Good job!

Even so, you managed to be faster than me, with my merit tree. Yesterday I had everything ready to do it, but then tiredness got the best of me.  

Once again, thanks for the good work done. And thanks for letting us know that the images are hosted on TalkImg.  

You deserve a thanks for contributing in our local board.

Its time for yet another brief monthly overview of the local boards activity, but this time with a bit longer delay than usual. As always,  all 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 yet but I hope that's something that will change in the near future because I do believe that they deserve it based on their numbers in the last few years. @theymos & @Cyrus, please take a look at their situation.

Post activity per local board during May 2023

During above mentioned period 16641 posts were made which is a slight increase compared to may April 2023 during which 16496 posts were written acorss 18 local boards. Increase might be slight, but as lonmg as numbers are not going down, for me that is a positive thing.

Once again Russian board remained the most active one, followed by Turkish and German, as usual. No changes at the bottom part of the chart as well, with the standard boards occupying bottom 4-5 spots. Generally no local board experienced huge change compared to April (which is no surprise give very similar amout  of posts written in April and May), with Indonesian board as only one who experienced decent increase (from 856 to 1103 or ~30%).

Local Board post race

Thanks to @bitmover, here is the animated local board post race chart


Number of active members per local board during May 2023

Despite the slight increase of the amoutn of posts written, during May there was a slight decrease in the number of active members; from 1322 during April to 1270 in May which makes it ~4% decrease. Once again Russian board had by far the most active amount of members, followed by Germans and Turks, with members from Indonesia slowly climbing up the ladder and I woulnd't be surprised if they reach Nigerians at thr 4th spot soon.


When it comes to amount of members (percentage wise of course relative to the total amount of members), who wrote 1 post during May, Romanian board is ahead of the others with 60% of such members, followed by Indian (55%) and Spanish (49%) local boards. At the same time, Indonesian has the lowest percentage of those members (17%), closely followed by Portuguese (18%) and Turkish (21%).

In the 2-9 posts bracket, Polish board is ahead of the others with 54% of those members, while Germans are 2nd with 48% and Bangladesh 3rd with 46%. On the other hand,  Romanian  board has the lowest percentage of such members (20%), followed by Arabic (212%) and Croatian (23%) local boards.

In the 10+ posts bracket, Portuguese board is the leader with 46% of those members, followed by Turkish and Indonesian at 44% of such members. Opposite to them are Polish local board with 15% of such members, followed by Greek (18%) and Romanian (20%) local boards.

Merit shared per local board during May 2023

Despite the slight increase in the amount of posts, amount of merits shared went down by 8%, from 9025 in April down to 7306 in May. Its no surprise that due that majority of local boards have fewer merits shared, but one local board stands out that managed to have significant increase and that's Indonesian board that went from 903 merits in April to 1369 during May which makes it a ~50% increase. Kudos guys and hopefully you keep it up!

---

Merit senders and receivers per local board during May 2023

As always, pretty straightforward chart that is sorted according to the amount of merits shared, and once again Nigerian and Pilipinas boards really stands out which shows that they have large amount of merit senders/receivers relative to the amount of merits shared which could then indicate that they could use more merit sources.

---

Merit/Post ratio per local board for May 2023

Since amount of merits shared decreased and amount of posts slighly increased, its no surprise that merit/post ratio is slighly less than in previous month but even with that decrease i think that ratio is generally pretty high, with the expection of the few standard names (Nigerian, Pilipinas) that could definitely use more merit sources.

---

Merit per transaction across local boards in May 2023

Due popular demand (read: fillippone ) I am including the "merit per transaction" chart to get a litle bit better idea what's going on in each local board merit wise and how members of each board share the merit. Its no surprise that local boards that historically have high merit/post ratio lead this chart as well, but there are few expections like Nigerian board that is relatively high on this chart while being having 2nd lowest merit/post ratio.

---

The most active members per local board during May 2023

Last but not the least, list of the most active members of 18 local boards. Once again joker_josue from Portuguese  is ahead of the othrs with 280 posts, followed by two members from Russian local board, Smartprofit (244 posts) and Ratimov (203 posts)

Based on your current numbers I think that you definitely deserve your own local board and when/if you get it, your numbers will probably go up even more, like it happened when Nigerians got their own local board.


No one except thyemos and cyrus can really answer that and my guess would be good as anyone else's but if you want to hear my opinion, I would say that it won't happen soon (by soon I mean next few months). I hope I am wrong though.

Maybe, it is very possible, but it just depends on how your local community grows day by day until the acceptance of your local board application. In addition to post statistics, I think the number of active users of your local community will also affect sooner or later about the creation of local board. So make sure your local community continues to be active and get more attention from the post statistics and the number of posters.

I only support it being made, but maybe you and all Bangladeshi users should be patient. How much longer? Of course that is not a question that can be answered with certainty.

Thanks for the recommendation, and thanks for the charts as well.
Guys, Look at the stats of Bangladesh Thread. We had 57 Active members last month. The numbers increased by almost 30% in the previous two months. The post count in the Bangladesh thread increased by 30% as well. Look at the other stats as well. We had a local board application that is inactive now. We await an excellent time to bump it up again or start a new application. One of our Prominent forum members will step up once he believes it's the right time. I am curious about what global members think about Bangladesh Community? Do you guys think we may have a local board anytime soon?
