Not of much interest to many, I'm sure, but I've been quietly collecting this information for the past two months and one of our allies requested it, so here it is. It's a comparison of the forums of regions that have been in the top 100 at some point in the period.

Do the numbers under the dates represent posts per day or what?

Total posts for that week...although there's an average post per day column on the far left.

I should note that this isn't the most scientific thing I've done. I may have got the numbers an hour or two later or earlier for various weeks, but it was originally meant to give me a guide...not really to be accurate down to the second, lol.

I noticed we have a significant jump from last week to this week, most likely because of the election campaign threads, but then I saw Ainur and 10KI each have a 3,000 post increase from the previous week! 

I can only imagine.

Albion and XKI are amongst the most active regions in the game, though I suspect a lot of their activity is spam. At one point a few months back I checked out Albion and like 40% of their posts were in the spam forum...compared to 15% in ours the last time I checked...

To be fair though, at least 3/4ths of XKI's posts are spam posts, whether it be one word responses, double posts, and the like.  I'm actually rather surprised for as structured as XKI is, their Taco Island forum (aka spam central) is totally out of control as far as the spam goes. 

And you noted Albion's being at least 40% spam posts...XKI's is at least 70% spam posts each day.

I'm not surprised TSP is so high on the list. The bulk of their posts are bickering over petty stuff. -_-

I've noticed. TSP is pretty much the antithesis of everything Wintreath stands for.

I'm surprised we're actually beating some of the GCRs including TRR.  o.O

Most of the GCRs are driven by drama and conflict...when drama goes up, activity swells, and when there is none it goes back down. In fact, part of the reason many people in Osiris accepted going to war with Lazarus was that they thought the conflict would create activity for them.

A misguided method of building activity if you ask me, but...well, nobody did.

For anyone that cares, the latest week of data is now out.

And updated!

I see only yours and my posts are being counted in that. 

I ran the numbers for the last week, and good news for us! We broke an activity record! Go us!

Hey! Yeah! Wintreath showing up!
