I knew that I was a top poster of my local thread right after the end of the month. But I was surprised and didn't even realize I wrote 28 posts monthly. The main surprise is that people almost stopped participating in our local thread, which is the reason I was the top poster with only 28 posts. The 2nd guy wrote only 16 posts, and it's disappointing. Thanks for the chart Rikafip. Thanks to Crypto Library as well who also make stats for our local thread only. I hope local members will get motivated from these stats and continue to contribute to the local thread.
I can't believe what I am saying but we have a new king in our local board and vegan gambling industry won another battle! 
Yep, it doesn't happen too often that someone outspams slackovic on our board but it is welcomed change. The king is dead, long live the king SirJohnVonSpammy.
True, your already low merit shared dropped even further in May, so hopefully ymerit source status gets approved soon. In the meantime, it woulnd't be bad to use one of those merit giveaway threads to report posts from your local board.
I have not applied for the merit source but one of the known members of this forum has applied. I am the one who is trying to help him in getting the application approved by @Theymos. I hope he finds time to look into this graphical representation of the local Indian board and approve the application. It would be great if you could give a support reply to the application, if possible! I am posting the link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/application-for-merit-source-theultraelite-5497820

Dunno, it might happen very soon as our new king has been slacking lately, probably enjoying Malta's beaches (or wherever he is atm) too much. 
According to the report it seems merits are a big issue on my local board.

Finally! According to the report it seems merits are a big issue on my local board. The activities are still okay but with a local merit source it can be increased. Lack of merits is the main reason why a lot of Indian members are active on the global boards than on the local board.

Congrats and big thanks to our kings for their activity.

As I promised few days ago, here is yet another overview of the local board activity and this time for May 2024. As in all the previous one, 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 changes in the near future.
Post activity per local board during May 2024
During the last month, 16597 posts were written across 19 local boards, which is a slight decrease compared to April's numbers (17438). Summer is coming, and people are spending more time outside, so this decrease is perfectly normal and expected, as it has been in previous years.
Among the local boards included in this overview (with a few missing due to inactivity), the Russian board remained by far the most active, followed by the Turkish and Nigerian boards, while the Indonesian and German boards closed out the top five. As for the bottom of the chart, the same names appear once again, which I don't expect to change in the near future, although the Bengali board might climb up, as it was more active not too long ago.

Active members per local board during May 2024
During the above mentioned period, 1356 members wrote at least 1 post on any of the local boards that makes it an expected decrease compared to month before (1423). This decrease was observed across all the local boards, with only the German and Turkish boards slightly sticking out regarding the decrease.
Speaking purely about the numbers, Russian remained the most active one but Nigerioan and Indonesian looking good too, especially the former whose growth in the last year or so has been unbeliveable.
Local board members per amount of posts during May 2024
When it comes to the members who wrote only 1 post, Indian local board is the leader with exactly 50%, followed by Bengali (45%) and Spanish (42%) local boards. At the same time, Croatian has only 10% of such members, followed Pilipinas (14%) and Indonesian (15%) local boards.\
In the 2-9 posts bracket leader is Indonesian local board that had 55% of those members, followed by Romanian, Polish and French local boards that all had 50%. In the same bracked, Portuguese had only 16% of such members, followed by Greek (17%) and Pakistan (24%) local boards.
Regarding the 10+ posts bracket, Portuguese is the clear leader with 60% of such members, followed by Greek (50%) and Pakistan (45%) local boards. When it comes to locals with lowest percentage of such members, Polish sticks out with only 8%, followed by Romanian (17%) and Indian (19%) local boards.
Merit shared per local board during May 2024
During the last month, 8364 merits were shared in the local boards, representing almost a 30% increase compared to April's total of 6515. Given such a significant increase, it’s no surprise that the majority of local boards performed better than in April, with Germany leading in terms of the increase.
Despite this overall growth, some boards had a worse month. For example, the French board saw a decrease from 274 merits in April to only 139 in May. Additionally, the Greek board did not have any merits shared at all in May, while in April their total was quite decent for their size, with 37 merits shared.
Merit/Post ratio per local board during May 2024
The merit per post average for all local boards during May was 0.69, which is significantly higher than the previous month’s average of 0.48. Considering the decrease in the number of posts and the substantial increase in merit shared, it’s no surprise that the ratio looks much better for May than it did in April.
Regarding the boards with the highest ratios, the Romanian board is at the top, which is not surprising, but their extremely high ratio is somewhat unexpected. Then again, this can happen with less active local boards, as all it takes is a couple of quality posts with a lot of merit to boost the ratio. Conversely, the Pilipinas board once again has an extremely low ratio, comparable to some of the least quality parts of the forum and I doubt that it accurately reflects the quality of that board.
Merit senders and receivers per local board during May 2024
During the last month 540 members sent merit while 663 received which is an expected increase compared to month before (513 sends and 537 receivers). Once again an interesting thing happen, where several boards managed to have more senders/receivers than Russian board despite the fact that they had by far the most amount of merit shared which indicates that their merit ciriculation is a little bit more concentrated than on some of the other boards.
Percentage of merited posts across local boards during May 2024
An average percentage of merited posts across 18 boards is 23.55% which is the (expected) increase compared with April (18.84). During April Romanian board was sticking out with a very high 60% of merited posts and during May they even managed to beat that, going up to the extremely high 75%. Once again, this kind of percentage is possible only at less active boards and Romanian with only 40 posts during last month qualify as one.
Regarding the bottom, who else could it be there other than Pilipinas with less than 4% of merited posts, but Indian and Turkish are not too far behind either.
Merit per transaction across local boards during May 2024
An average merit per tx across local boards during May was 1.78 which is a decrease compared to April (2.08). Kinda interesting change as I expeced an increase considering almost 30% more meeit being send compared to month before.
The most active members per local board during May 2024
Last but not the least in this overview, list of top 10 members across 18 local boards/threads. Regarding the overall most active members, this time top 3 comes form the same board (Turkish), namely totti67 (288 posts), verbakalim (265) and mandown (229). Kudos guys, keep it up (and wake up joker_josue)!

Then you will be glad to hear that I already made charts and tables and all that is left now is the most broing part, to write the text. That will be finished either tonight or tomorrow so you can expect overview to be released on Monday afternoon, or Tuesday morning at the latest.
Great! Good to know that you are on the boring part
. It is not just you but everyone who deals in deducing the data and then creating a presentation has to go with. Thanks for those wonderful bar graphs that we eagerly await every month once again. @Rikafip waiting for your update for May 2024. You might be busy but you have made me addicted to your data every month on local boards. Please try to find some time to post local board activities as it is crucial for everyone to understand. It will immensely help the Indian board that does not have a local merit source. It is urgent because your data is the reason why one of our excellent contributors @TheUltraElite has applied for merit source. Eventually, your post on activities will help his application as a merit source, thanks for creating such a simple data analysis on the activities of every local board. Your report is all we local board members like me wait to increase the activity and try to generate more traffic for the forum.

This is my first time seeing my username mentioned in this thread. Should I be proud?
Its up to you I guess. I just want to share that the Local board of Pilipinas is no longer as active as it used to be when there was the Mixer Signature campaign. Now, you can really notice the decrease in local/Pilipinas posts on the chart due to the ban on Bitcoin Mixer. But also I think it's not just because of banning Bitcoin Mixers but also due to adding the off-topic child board, which doesn't display our Signature that most signature campaigns don't count the posts from it. For sure, the one who requested that off-topic child board for Pilipinas regrets that it was approved.
No local board is as active as it used to be several years ago, so Pilipinas board is not an exception in that regard. After all, you still have pretty decent post numbers but what you seriously lack is merit and that's something that you should work on and that would probably help you increase the activity and quality of your board. It was almost two years ago, and I never posted anything on this topic again. I don't even know if I should bump this topic or not. 
It can't hurt to bump it from time to time. 
It seems that the performance of the Nigerian board has improved a lot, they now have a board and a local mod so things are moving in the right direction.
Yes and we also thank your support in the local board. The activeness of members in the local board is impressive. I think Thomas will not regret of caving out the local board in the forum because we are strongly supportive of the system and the propagate of bitcoin to the uttermost part in the continent at large and in the country in particular. Though we still need one thing which is the merit source. And foe jow with the help of you, we have taken a good position in the merit sharing in both send and receive. On behalf of other Nigerians in the forum we thank you.
Last but not the least in this overview, list of top 10 members across 18 local boards/threads and thanks to whom their local boards are still alive. When it comes to the most active users, totti67 from Turkish local sticks out with 298 posts, followed by oker_josue (230) from Portuguese local and one more member of Turkish board verbakalim who wrote 227 posts in his local board. GG guys, keep it up!
What? Did I come second?
Honestly, I wasn't expecting anything. These last few weeks must have been the least active in the last 3 years, I didn't expect to be ranked so well.
Sadly, Brazilian board still the on the "top" smaller merit/post ratio.
I would definitely want another merit source there...
Yep, Portuguese board has been consistently among the lowest when it comes to merit/post ratio, bascially ever since I am making this overview. With that being said, do you have any active merit source application?I would definitely want another merit source there...
I think joker_josue applied
I would certainly indicate rdluffy, Disruptivas and sabotag3x to apply for merit source as well
Yes, I did, applying for a merit source.

Yea things are really getting better in our LB and your support as really been among the main reasons our board as really become thus active and with our current local mod doing is works diligently, spamming as become minimal which is a good thing for us now.Sadly, Brazilian board still the on the "top" smaller merit/post ratio.

I will give it a look in addition to Indian board.

It seems that bitmover meant Brazilian board and not Indian
@Rikafip, thanks for the update this is what I have been waiting for a while to find the current status of Indian local board since merit source announced that he withdrew from his position and there's no surprise the numbers went quite low. Indian board started to rise from bottom since last year June but now back to where it's started.
Any veterans are active only in the Global section, please don't forget to engage in the Local community too...
Also if you go through the previous page before this on this thread, you see more discussion about this. Any veterans are active only in the Global section, please don't forget to engage in the Local community too...

I see that one of your members applied for a merit source position the other day so let's hope that theymos approves his application soon. In the meantime, you could report good posts from your local board in Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source.Sadly, Brazilian board still the on the "top" smaller merit/post ratio.

Here you go, the locals boards race!!!
Cheers, overview has been updated! Nice work! I managed to publish before you, although I used a trick to speed up the posting process. The best thing about your post is the chart for the top poster of each board. Does this mean that the tryninja website is up and running again? I may have missed some announcements.
Yep, its up since last night. We are back!
Posts from when the server downtime occurred are still missing (explains the sharp decline on the 'posts per day' chart), I might make a script to scrape them later.
