Topic: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity - page 24. (Read 18450 times)

Yes, the reason is true but I think their participation in local board is not mandatory but only awareness. Several times I have suggested that they are expected to be willing to do something for their local board regardless of whether they want to post or distribute merit, it's up to them. But some of these downward looking statistics shouldn't be a big deal for local board, but yes statistically it is something.

@Rikafip
Thanks for your excellent work. Gathering all this information and compiling it is no easy task.
I took the opportunity to add this information in my application topic to the merit source. 

I had to double check where this thread was mentioned, because I sincerely forgot I still had this in my sources.
Yes, being it a little obsolete, it makes no sense to have it still.

Thanks for letting me know it![/list]

Thank you for the quick feedback.
Please do not worry about it unnecessarily because the requirement of at least 1 post in period X is correct from the basic statement
Thanks again - keep going.

Its simple really, that chart shows the amount of members that wrote at least 1 post in local board during in that time period. So yeah, numbers will look inflated as its kinda hard to call someone who wrote only one post in a month an active member.  As I mentioned in my overview, I am thinking of ways to somewhat alleviate that issue and give a clearer picture of the amount of more active members and might be implemented in the next month's overview.

I hope its all clear now and I am definitely opened to suggestions how to sort that out.

First, thanks for your great stats Rikafip!
About the active users in period X and board Y I have another question.

How exactly is this number determined?
For August, your evaluation provides a value of 140 in the German-speaking subboard.

Since that seems a bit high to me I would like to know how exactly the number is determined. Thanks

Thanks for noticing, its been sorted now. But I guess  mistakes like that are tradeoff for doing these overviews so early in the month, I won;t do the same mistake next month and will take longer time to publish it.  


Summer definitely affected whole forum, our local board included. Its only natural to spend less time on forum and travel around, especially after covid restrictions when it wasn't easy to go to your local supermarket, let alone some other country (that didn't stop me to travel, but I know many were). I do expect numbers to go up now after summer is behind us but will see how that plays out.


Yeah that would be an interesting stat to see, how many users are from English speaking countries. While they may have dominated in the, past somehow I doubt its the same situation now. I don't have any data to back that up though, its just my impression based on the posts I see.


Its pretty much the same situation in our local board as some of our most active members either went awol or are seriously slacking and its probably the same for majority of other local boards.



Cheers bud!


Just keep being active there and they might stop ignoring you and give you you own local board, which I think you deserve.

Amazing job man and appreciate the efforts you put into compiling all these charts and make them in presentable format from different sources so that users can benefited from the same and each local board analysis can be done on some aspects.So well done and keep up these efforts.This time you are little early in posting these compared to some past ones which have gone across the monthly time period also so great job.

Yeah there is downfall in the users and post on the Indonesian board with a difference of 236 post this time and active users have also gone down with 5 which can be due to the reason you have mentioned above as many are writing for the campaign requirements only and if they didn't feel incentivise for it they lack the motivation to contribute but they should Focus more on having healthy participation with their local members.

You are also maintaining the same level of dedication towards to publish these reports to the Italian gang and they can be benefited from it as well and you have your own style of presenting these statistical charts for local board.So keep the same posting as well.

Mate, great work as usual! I already did the usual scavenging adding your graphs to my thread in the Italian section:

[Meta] Andamento sezione italiana

Keep up with the good posting!

Mate, as always, this is another great job from you.

Since I'm a bit ahead of you for the August update, I'm no longer surprised by the drop in Indonesian board local activity data. In addition to the number of users who appear to be decreasing from month to month, the number of merit distributions and the number of posts is also decreasing. Some of the most active users have lost interest in posting on local board as the campaign no longer counts local posts, this has lowered the overall post count in August. Maybe for September, the data will decrease further for the above reasons as well.

Great work on this report as usual Rikafip.
I know everyone else is speaking English language so there is no need for special local boards, but I always wondered what the stats would look for United States, United Kingdom and Australia.
My assumption is that most active users are coming from US, but someone could be living in Asia or Europe and still speak US English.

There are few new members showing up recently but they are still not active enough to make significant changes with stats.
Our local king Slacko needs to be urgently reactivated or even Greeks, Polish and other boards are going to run over us.
Maybe he is still spending his royal bitcoin wealth in some seaside resort or island, but this is red alert and I am getting worried for him.

I really appreciate your monthly overview of local board activities, Rikafip. You do a great job as usual. (By the way, you forgot to change the color of the German bar in the first chart, but it's not a big deal.)

And once again, the Portuguese local is absolutely dominated by joker_josue, the unsung hero and undisputed king of the local boards. It will be very challenging to dethrone him since he doesn't even have strong competition for the moment.

Our Croatian local board is experiencing a small drop in activity compared to last month, but that was to be expected as summer is always a time of reduced activity on the forum. Hopefully, we will get back on track and the activity will increase after the summer break.

Thank you Rikafip for taking the trouble to publish the numbers every month. That's really great of you.  

I published the numbers again on our local board: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.60992117

Thanks for this comment as a source of motivation for the push to get a local board for those mentioned local communities as our presence is becoming prominent in this forum and the need to have a dedicated local board, for local discussions. Am cool with coming 4th on the list of active members in the Nigerian local thread.

As I promised yesterday, here is the monthly overview of local boards activity for August 2022. All charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space so I suggest that you check those awesome tools if you want more in-depth overview.

Just to remind that Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Nigerian, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards as of yet, with the hope that changes soon.

Post activity per local board during August 2022

Seems like the drop in activity slowed down; during last month 14828 posts were written across 18 local boards, which is very similar to July numbers (18873). As usual, Russian local boatd has been the most active one with 5155 posts, followed by Turkish and German boards. As we have the standard names at the top, so we have at the bottom, with the usual "suspects". I did notice that Greek board (which is usually one of the least active ones) is getting more active month after month so hopefully that trends continues.

Regarding the communities without local boards that are included in this overview, two out of three (Pakistan and Nigerian) are still going very strong and I am really surprised that they still haven't received any feedback regarding their request for a local board.

Number of active members per local board during August 2022

During last month 1174 members were active across local boards, which is again a very similar number to July and 1188 members. It is a negligent decrease, especially considering the fact that even those that wrote only 1 post were included. Might be the time to consider either setting the bar higher, or sort this chart a little bit different.

---

Merit shared per local board during August 2022

Even though post activity was very similar compared to July, merit shared increased noticeably: from 5164 in July to 5501 during August, which is a ~6.5% increase. It might seem insignificant, but at this time I will take any increase as a positive thing.

As usual Russian board remain the most merited one which is understandable considering their post count), followed by Turkish, German and Italian. Once again I am surprised by Nigerian and Pakistan board and their very high numbers, especially considering the fact (afaik) that Pakistan board doesn't even have their own merit source.

---

Merit senders and receivers per local board for August 2022

Just a reminder that local boards are sorted according the amount of merit shared, and not by the amount of senders/receivers.

---

Merit/Post ratio per local board for August 2022

And in the end, lets see how local boards performed regarding the merit/post ratio. Since post numbers remained pretty much the same while amount of merit shared increased by ~6.5%, it is logical that ratio will increase as well (well, at least for the majority of local boards). Once again Arabic board had the highest ratio by far, even when you look at the 12 month ratio, so the last month wasn't just some rare exception for them.  

Several very active local boards like Portuguese, Russian (situation there might be specific due war) and especially Philippines ( I still can't wrap my head around their extremely low merit/post ratio considering how active they are) so their members might think about applying for a merit source status.

The most active members per local board during August 2022

And for the end of this monthly overview, let's see the top 10 active members across the local boards. Once again @joker_josue has been the most active local member with 288 post, leaving @DdmrDdmr and his 191 posts far behind at the 2nd spot and @Ratimov with 159 at the 3rd spot.

Sorry, you know I like this inside joke of “slacking contest”, as you have understood,  it is even milder than a “friendly reminder” action.
I really think those analysis aren’t a chore.
So, when they are ready, they are ready!

Yeah I saw your local board overview and I was waiting for you to call me out for slacking.


I made all charts couple of days ago and just have to write the text which I will do either later today or tomorrow morning at the latest, so you can expect it to be published tomorrow.

Just a little reminder.
 This month I lost our slacking contest, and I published my META update.

Whenever you are ready, I will add your graph.

Congratulations on your achievement, which is absolutely deserved.
Your contribution to this forum is really great and visible to everyone, and I sincerely hope that you will soon become a merit source, because you also deserve it with everything you did on the forum.
This forum really needs more members like you, and I wish you the best of luck in your merit source application.

Someone can clearly analyze my desire to get more merit, it doesn't matter that's everyone's right.
But as I said before, hard work never betrays results.
Actually this is the point I want to learn?
And that's why I went into various sub-discussions to broaden my knowledge.

Maybe my thoughts are still a little ambiguous in understanding the merit system or services that I want to provide, so I need a lot of mentors to discuss, because in the past I didn't really pay much attention to the substance of the problem.
For example, what I'm responding to, if I don't try to fix it now, I'm afraid that in the future I won't be able to do anything for this beloved forum. That's why I get into posts that sometimes I don't master more deeply.
I also don't know if this is wrong?

And thanks for this one.
Maybe in the future I can learn more about things related to this, so that in the future my knowledge will be more in-depth about the source of receiving/providing services.
