I have been and a handful of few others creating topics, engaging on threads still none of the Merit sources think or felt like they should encourage members like us with Merits. Why?

If any of the posts/topics in Meta or here is a targeted attack on me, I would like to apologize for the same. I should have continued the initiatives to improve the board but with government trying their best to suppress the use of bitcoin or crypto in general I don't see new people joining this board anytime soon.

@eaLiTy was the most active member in trashing/reporting spams and if they are still active, we can make him a moderator but theymos would request for sufficient activity in our board before appointing anyone to the role.

The raffle should have been restarted back during the Republic Day but it was postponed again. So, this time let's not delay this and rework together to start them tomorrow!

The problem with our local board is
1. Less Audience of Active Indians. Accept it or not we have pretty less number of active Indians on the forum who post atleast 10 posts in a week. With less than 15 members of one country i Don't expect this board to flourish.

2. Lack of local discussions on bitcoin. Honestly there aren't a lot of points of discussion on local issues that can keep the board going. Other boards have separate languages so they flourish because people feel easier to communicate in their own language. For us English is infact the most convenient language and we have those discussions easily in common boards.

And moreover even Pakistani boards or Bangladeshi boards will suffer the same end. Bangladeshi might even sustain due to Local Bengali Dialect. Otherwise the low number of users will eventually make local boards less used.

There is zero problem with our board. You commented and others are commenting or trying to create topic relevant to this board. In my opinion it is enough!

The big issue with Indians is that they get an opportunity and then they blow it. For me if I see five guys participating without any raffle or offers on this board. I would support each one of them.

My opinion for support is to encourage them with Merits and in turn they would come up with topics. That is all that matters to me. I am least bothered to think about language issue or anything. English is the most common language in India after Hindi.

There is nothing like a language barrier. If you are not good in English then use Hinglish. The only issue is that we don't have any leader to guide this board. Those who were chosen have left it and now it all depends on us how to get it functional.

I have also seen many senior members busy earning Bitcoin with the signature campaign and regularly posting on other boards and threads. They are least bothered to come and comment on our local boards. They were born in India, and got everything from the country but still discourage fellow Indians to advance.

That's a very bold statement. I don't think anyone on this board has ever "discouraged" anyone to advance.
In fact people have only encouraged others to keep the discussions active.
It's a harsh reality that we being the world's most populated country still don't have enough members to keep the board active.
We cant blame anyone because we have tried multiple times to revive the board yet very few people joined hands.
This is one of the reasons why you see people being active on other boards and posting regularly while not posting on this board.

I do hope things get changed here onwards and we do see some activities on this board going forward.

This board is dried down with full of spam and none to support those genuinely trying to bring it back. In my opinion it is better to close this board and give opportunities to those countries like Pakistan who have been asking for a local board.

Yes, this board to an extent is nonfunctional. I think a few members like me are active on this board and are still creating topics but not getting the required response from Indian members on BTT.

If anyone here agree with me then do leave a reply. I am frustrated and more over now I feel this board is a waste of my time and everyone who post here as none of the Merit sources are either active or have any intention to support us.

I totally agree that those who are Merit sources are either sleeping or not interested anymore here. As per my understanding, almost everyone who is either a legendary or a Hero Member on this board got those ranks as they were here before 2018. As of now, it is difficult to get merits in order to rank up. If you visit other local boards you would see how those responsible to give merits are encouraging activities by giving merits to those topics that make a difference and are unique. I have created a few topics on this board and except for the OP and @Bitcoin Smith I do not see anyone encouraging newbies like us.

I am not sure how many members are active on the board but those who have replied on this thread have been trying to keep this board afloat. I also think a little bit of help from the source can uplift the morale of those who have been actively creating topics. Not all topics are good and not all of them are bad.

You cannot expect a good amount of activity or engagement on the Indian local board due to the uncertainty created by the government of India. Still, a handful are trying to revive it and they should be encouraged That was the only reason I created this topic.

Really daring question which is mind of many others for a while but now you broke it cause the local board stuck with almost no activity while we are from place where 1.4 billion people is living.

In another thread @HH mentioned he do often visit local board but not much convincing discussions to get merits and its solely depends on his choice so we can't force him to distribute either but as a request he can open a thread and mention what he is looking for in a post and something like that will give idea for others.

Merit should not be the top priority but keeping our local board active should be however I feel less distribution of merit is also a main reason why most people from our country stuck with main boards alone.

If a merit source doesn't reply on this thread in a month time then it is better to close this board or hand over merit source to someone else. This is what I am going to ask from @theymos.

From my perspective, the major concern is not merits but user engagement on the Indian local board.
Our priority is to keep the discussions active. Getting merits on posts should not be our priority and that's why asking merit source to support won't do us any good.
If at all we want the Indian board to be alive and active then we will have to bring in more people and keep them engaged with discussions.
As we all have previously discussed, the issue here is the language. Since India has so many languages there is no one language that can be used through the board.
Most people prefer English but then that is the global language used in the forum which again keeps people from posting in this board.
They prefer posting in other boards which are less spammy and more engaging. I guess there's no solution to this after all.
