Maybe the low posting rate of Junior Member comes from more actively reports from forum members. It is obviously that members at such rank usually make spam posts. Hence, when forum users more actively report spam posts, their posts (of Junior Member) will mostly be deleted, that in turn affects on general posting rate of Junior Member rank.
For higher ranks, they have higher posting rates (of actively posted users only), mainly because there are more campaigns for such ranks within last two or three months. So, they have posted more regularly.
fillipone, you missed it. When Bitcoin is high, more campaigns will be run, so bounty hunters will become more actively. Additionally, people tend to discuss more or fake-discuss more. In addition, you are right that it is just raw data, and not exactly reflects real things, but we can retrieve some basic descriptive statistics from it.
Topic: Number of members by rank? (Read 690 times)
It's interesting that brand new member have significant gap with other ranks, since you only need to post once till you reach newbie rank.
I bet most of them are account who need to pay some amount of btc to continue posting on forums or account who simply forget the password or even username they type while register

Could you explain the simple colorful calculation you made?By the looks of it, it was, with regards to @suchmoon’s data: add 3 to Brand New, subtract 3 from Newbie, and finally wipeout altogether the Hero rank (not present).
<…>
The Average post per active user and rank, along with the % of active users are the most interesting ratios. One thing that I wasn't expecting is Jr. Members (19,83) to have an average posting per month that less than half of that of Heroes (49) and Legendries (40,32).Newbies apparent low average posts per month ratio (7,62) is likely diluted amongst a large standard deviation. That is, there are likely many Newbie accounts that have posted very few posts, and a smaller (yet visible) set that have posted a lot. The former group, being likely larger, drives down the average a fair share.
I created some similar ratios back in early December 2018, and the ratios do seem to differ somewhat, specially on the Jr. Rank level (see Analysis – net posts created/destroyed in a month per rank).
From time to time I wonder how much this forum activity is correlated with bitcoin price.
Once we define in some way an active user (it might be users that posted at least one message in the last 30 day) it would be nice to have some sort of monthly statistics, in order to see if rising bitcoin price correlates with higher number of active users on the forum.
Correlation is not causation, but surely you can get some insight from there.

Calculate, really? You only colored figures given by suchmoon, there is no calculation at all. JUST I MAKE SIMPLE CALCULATE
Rank Number Of User Band New 1890017

I thank DdmrDdmr for valuable suggestions. I made it. Here are results:
Note: Excluding all ranks like Founder, Staff, Administrator, Donator, Global Moderator, and VIP. Here are some results:
1. Percentage of active users per rank
The top five rank are:
2. Average posts of active users per rank
The top five ranks are:
It seems that Newbies and Brandnews reduce their level of spamming (due to banned, nuked, or they lost hope to rank up, and then give up spamming). Despite of the percentage of active Junior Members per total users at this rank is 20%, that is not much significant lower than the figure of Hero Member rank, but average posts per active users for Junior Member rank is 19.8 compared to 49 for Hero Member rank.

Thanks a lot for the data and evaluations!
I am really surprised that there are so few active users overall. Quite interesting is that there is such a big difference between the number of Newbies and next level Junior. Also interesting is that the number of Junior Members is quite lower than the numbers of Members and Full Members. Does anyone have a plausible explanation for this

Pre-merit full members have airdropped merits and were able to keep their ranks while pre-merit juniors have been demoted to newbies.
What's the deal with the insane number of Brand News? Are they username squatters or what's the deal?
IMO, one person creates several accounts to promote their shit in here, in other words for SPAMMING.Last few days I have reported several topics which have the same content but posting with brand new accounts.

Guess maybe 45% of them from Account Farms and maybe 5% of them alts of CH , lol
I'm surprised by the sheer number of users on BitcoinTalk and how active most users seem to be.
Spot on, never really thought about it for a second.
It really depicts a clear picture of how the merit system stopped lower ranking spammers from ranking up back from the Newbie rank
Demotion on Junior Members whom did not get a single merit back to Newbies happened in September 2018. You can see full chronological history of merit system here.It really depicts a clear picture of how the merit system stopped lower ranking spammers from ranking up back from the Newbie rank
One year anniversary of merit system
legendary
Activity: 2478
Merit: 4341
eXch.cx - Automatic crypto Swap Exchange.
Interestingly, when you add up all active users, Legendaries are less than 3% of the total population.
Isn't that great news lol, majority of the inactive legendary accounts were just spammers that spam their way up to end of the foodchain. The less than 3% we have now who are actively participating on the forum, their presence are been felt so we good here. Now we need more self-made legendary users to keep the forum healthy.
Really so surprised that the total number of full members and number of active full members is way more than the number of Jr members both in total and active.
I expected the Jr Members number to be at least closer to Newbie count since ranking up to the rank needs only just 1 Merit.

What's the deal with the insane number of Brand News? Are they username squatters or what's the deal? A lot of people want to be able to log into the forum but then never comment? Seems a bit weird.
Evil IPs and nukes.

A huge amount of them are only bots spammers ready to start the spam. We often have examples here on the forum when a botnet start the spam even with accounts created years earlier.

We will get a way better stats if anyone can add on those tables the number of permabanned accounts too but I don't know if is it possible to manage that stat without the admin power.
