Subject: Re: Big Boards #11 (by Post Ratio) .... with a cull and a surge!

Written By: nally on 07/22/08 at 5:03 pm




We are at the same place since yesterday and with the Post Ratio rising 13.

We obviously didn't get much of a cull, since the membership didn't go down all that much.





We are at the same place since yesterday and with the Post Ratio dropping 9.


TCGs' Post Ratio is getting higher and higher, though, and it'll be pretty hard to catch them.....unless we have a big cull sometime soon. :o :-\\

On the + side, it seems that TCGs' stat dropped 12, from 1,992 to 1,980. Whether that helps or not, I don't know, but it's a start.

Well, the good news here is that vBulletin...I mean TCG's!... has dropped more. (Sorry, I tend to read the thing that's closest to the number. vBulletin is both above us and below us, but TCGs is the correct name of the guy above us.)


TCG's... that's the guy in position number 10.

Makes me wonder how many member culls they've undergone, if any.

If we had another cull anytime soon of our own, that might help us somewhat.

...one of which would be a cull of inactive users.

A while ago I scoured the Memberlist, sorting everyone by Date Registered (you can sort them by any field), to see if I could find out if there were any other inactive user accounts dating back to 2005 or earlier. And I've found at least 20 of those; all of those accounts have at least 100 posts each, which is why they weren't purged last year. But still, I think that if someone's account has been inactive for 3 or 4 years (such as "80sRocked" or "Smith'sGirl"), the odds of them returning anytime soon is pretty much nil.

Of course.
If 20 were to be culled then the current Post Ratio would be 2022974 - (1086 - 20) = 1898. Which would put us nearer Trading Card Forum who are currently on 1996.

If 20 were to be culled then the current Post Ratio would be 2022974 - (1086 - 20) = 1898. Which would put us nearer Trading Card Forum who are currently on 1996.

There are probably more inactive accounts in need of a cull...but I know I found at least 20 of them a week or so ago, as I said above. Then again, Trading Card Games forum has been moving up and down lately with their post ratio.

Well...judging from the recent stats, we had 1048 member accounts at Tuesday night/Wednesday morning's snapshot, and 1047 at last night's snapshot...so maybe sometime on Wednesday (yesterday), someone registered a new account, bringing the total to 1049...but then the robocops were purged (there were 2 such accounts), bringing the count back down to 1047.

We still got a ways to go if we wanna move up to #9, which I don't think has happened yet in the history of this site.

^Well, from those stats I can see that TCG's post ratio is also dropping some more...which enlarges our cushion above them and prevents us from slipping back into number 11.

Masta Beta's post ratio also seems to be dropping little by little...so maybe we won't slip quite as much. But Gamers Talk is pulling away from us...so it looks like we're gonna stay at number 10 for a while.

Of the nine boards above us in the list, this one and this one don't work, and this one is not in the right place - its real location is here. so technically we should be at least eighth, and if you wanna argue semantics, seventh.

The sooner the better.

I scoured the memberlist not too long ago and found at least 20 accounts that were last active prior to December 2005 (but they all had at least 100 posts to their name, which is why they weren't culled, which I still think was a faulty criterion); someday I intend to inform the moderators of this; if those accounts were purged, that would improve our statistic quite a bit.

Well...we went up this time. Rising by 1 is certainly better than slipping.

With the amount of posts sent to the board each day I always expect it to go down.

^and I can see that the Black Sheep Forums retained their stat, mostly because they only made 277 new posts yesterday.

I still think we deserve another cull.

Well, as Deniece Williams once said, way back in the early 80's, It's gonna take a miracle. I echo that statement 26 years later in regards to where we stand in terms of Post Ratio. It's gonna take a miracle...to move back up to top 10...what should we do till then?

I do believe you're right ... in respect of 'Ant' ... having done the culling periodically ... having a sympathetic ear (?). I don't believe 'Davester' has taken over the reigns just yet ... and in any case .... I'm sure the mods have other priorities ... so ... I suggest you just get used to the likelihood of further declines ... on THIS measure.  :(
