Its a last day of the month, so I guess its about time to publish yet another (not so brief anymore) monthly overview of the local boards activity. As in the previous ones, all charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr
Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja
Ninjastic.space.
Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards as of yet, which I hope is soemthing that will change in the near future.
Post activity per local board during October 2024During November, 13581 posts were written across 18 local boards, which is almost the same amount as month before (13566). To be honest, I kinda expected a better result considering summer is behind us and market looks pretty good, but at least we didn't have a decrease. And who knows, maybe November turns out to be better.
Regarding the most active boards no change at the top; Russian is still by far the most active local board, followed by Turkish and Nigerian boards and big surprise is Italian board at the 4th spot and I don't remember seeing them so high lately.
Unfortunately, traditionally the least active locals have been even less active during October than in September so hopefully that changes in the next overview (which I hope will be published much sooner than this one).
Active members per local board during October 2024During the last month, 1292 members wrote at least one post in one of the local boards which is a (very) slight increase compared with September's numbers (1281) and is a consistent with a very small increase in the amount of posts.
Like in all previous months, Russian has by far the most active members, followed by Nigerian and German local boards. The latter one had a huge increase compared to September, from 106 to 146 which is not something that you see often in this chart.
Pretty much the same thing at the bottom, usual suspects with mostly decreased number of active members.
Local board members per amount of posts during October 2024When it comes to the members who wrote only 1 post, its pretty obvious that Greek is the leader there with 100% of the active members writing only one post each, followed by Indian (52%) and Spanish (51%) local boards. At the same time, Pakistan has the lowest percentage of such members (7%), followed by Nigerian (15%) and Indonesian (19%) local boards.
In the 2-9 posts bracket leader isNigerian local board with 53%, followed by Russian and Pakistan with both having 52% of such members. In the same bracket, (beside Greek local) Portuguese has the lowest percentage (20%), followed by Turkish (30%) and Italian (32%) local boards.
Regarding the 10+ posts bracket, Portuguese local board is the leader with 44% of such members, followed by Italian (42%) and Pakistan (40%) local boards. When it comes to locals with lowest percentage of such members (again not counting Greek), Polish is yet again there with 11%, followed by Indian (12%) and French (15%) local boards.
Merit shared per local board during October 2024During the October, 5207 merit was sent across local boards that are part of this overview and is a noticeable drop compared to September's number (5207). I did notice the overall decrease in the amount of merit shared in the last few months across the forum in general so it makes sense that local boards are affected by it as well.
Once again Russian is by far the most merited board, which is logical as they are much more active than the rest, followed by Turkish, Nigerian and Italian locals. Indonesian board used to be there among the top ones, but for whatever reason their merit numbers dropped by almost the half (from 654 to 364). At the same time Spanish local had a big increase, from 138 merits sahred in September to 262 in October so kudos to them!
Once again the usual names are at the bottom, while Greek board is missing because during October they sent no merit which is not a sururpise considering they wrote only 6 posts in that period.
Merit/Post ratio per local board during October 2024The merit per post average for all local boards during October was 0.38 which is a decrease compared to month before (0.42). Drop is not a surprise as the number of posts remained pretty much the same while merit shared dropped by apprroximatelly 10%.
This month we have a change at the top: Spanish board has the highest merit/post ratio, followed by Romanian and (surprisingly high) Bengali locals, while at the same time Indian had the measly 0.07 which is comparable with Off Topic section.
Merit senders and receivers per local board during October 2024During the above mentioned period, 456 members active on local boards sent merit while 502 received, which is an expected decrease compared to September's numbers (465/540) due lower amount of merit shared.
Percentage of merited posts across local boards during October 2024In September no local board was sticking out when it comes to percentage of merited posts, but this time Romanian local is guilty of that with a very high 45% of the post that got merited. Having said that, they have somewhat lower amount of posts written (60) which makes is much easier to have such a high percentage, while at the ame time Indian is at the bottom with only ~7% of merited posts.
Merit per transaction across local boards during October 2024An average merit per tx during October was 1.69 which is coincidentally exactly the same as in the month before, but this time Spanish board being at the top with almost 3 merits sent per each transaction, while in the same time in the Indian board they only sent 1 merit in each transaction.
The most active members per local board during October 2024And for the end of October's brief monthly overview, list of the top ten most active member per local board. Once again we have a member from Russian local board at the top, Bits.media, who wrote 231 post, followed by Turkish member mandown with 213 posts and at the 3rd spot Portuguese member joker_josue who wrote 203 posts. Good job guys, keep it up!
