Default Review of forum activity

Okay, I was playing around a bit with excel, fucking around with functions etc ... I entered the numbers from the forum overview to see if anything funny would turn up ...

Forum activity:
Three forums out of 41 counted constitute up to 60% of all of totse's posts, 13% of our posts are classifed as being half-baked, 14% were made in Better living through chemistry, Spurious obviously leads with a whopping 33% of totse's 7,290,602 posts!

The next in line, Sex and Affection has 6.25%, ... & Rock and role has only 3.06% of all posts.

thread length:
Another interesting figure is the average thread length.
News of the Temple for example, has over 6500posts, spread out over only 55 threads, which are on average 125posts long!

(runer up) Top dogs:
Politics (L,R &C): 24.2 ppt (posts per thread
Sex and Affection: 19.8 ppt
Backyard Ballistics: 19.4 ppt
Spurious Generalities: 19.3 ppt

2,430,200 posts solely in SG.

Scary shit.

Just imagine if all that time spent typing was put towards solving poverty, saving the world or finding a cure for cancer.

It sure would make the world a bit more boring anyway. I can deal with poverty and cancer if totse exists :)

If you are, I'm missing something too; IFIOTW, BI and S&A all have more posts than AR&R.

It's interesting to see statistics, though. I don't know if anybody's noticed, but IFIOTW always has more than double the browsing users than any other forum, but doesn't have that many posts (comparatively).

You're right, S&A has got more posts than R&R, it's at 6.25%

I can't easely access the "views" data, so I can't really put the audience into stats

Mokothar, you and I are kindred souls (https://www.totse.com/community/showthread.php?t=1533258). :D

PS-If anyone is actually interested, I do have growth data for February and March of 2005, I just never posted it.

I'd also like to point out that on average totse has about 800-1500 members currently viewing the board (guests included). That's about an eighth of the "active registered members."

I am going to look for a vbulletin statistics mod, because I think these numbers are quite interesting. Since slashnet.org does not offer a sophisticated statserv (that I know of) I've been playing with some statistics for the IRC chatrooms on my own - http://zoklet.net/ircstats/

Robinhoody and I are the only BLTC mods that don't appear on the list. We must be some hardcore anti-social bastards. ;)
