Topic: Forum stats - who creates the most-discussed-in threads
trog

I just had a passing thought after having a look at the forum and seeing a bunch of threads that had over 100 posts and just thought I'd see if it was easy to figure out who had created the most posts with more than 100 replies.

This is from data going back MORE THAN TEN YEARS!! (btw we are over 10 years old now apparently. I think we missed that birthday, I guess we should do something cool.) First post in the database is dated 01:12:52am 1999-04-09.

If you are on this chart, you are pretty cool. This is only the top 30 entries, btw - there are a few more.

If anyone cares:

mine actually is prolly skewed because it will include news posts as well... so I just make everyone look lame by comparison mostly because of that I guess.

Guess I just create enough baiting threads to rate a mention! :)

How crazy is it that Hunter still rates though. Man, that guy left dirt that you still can't scrub off.

6 is not really very many imo

also posts per day would be biased due to the unfair post limiting of some users.

how about you do a graph on the highest average number of posts per thread created. Would be a bit more useful.

I want to see the top 20 most ignored posters. Those posters who create threads that get less than 20 replies.

In a semi related note, is this place ever going to get the ability for users to create their own polls?

How dare you put my popularity down to simply being a girl who shows my boobs. I am soooo much more than that

Don't know if anyone else posted this already, but you definitely have to take into consideration total number of threads created. It's not unreasonable to expect someone who posted one thousand threads to have a few of them be popular... It's a much bigger feat to create fewer threads and have a greater proportion popular.

So, take all your values and divide by the total number of threads per person - you might get a quit different result!

Hm. I need to go back to the CHAU days of being 16-year-old Raven, where every thread turned into a complete flamewar. Mostly aimed at me though - that'd get me on that chart.

Can you do the opposite?

Find out who has started the most fail threads. The most threads with the least replies. That could be interesting.

I'm VERY surprised I'm not on there, perhaps it's the 10 years thing.

Besides a few random youtubes, the only other threads I start are regarding guns or drugs that seem to last for a long time/large amount of pages.

Gimme a more recent wheel trog :( I feel left out now.

Bloody Strex, Teen, hunter etc., they dissapeared yonks ago.

I'm pretty sure I'm #1 on that list, most of the threads I've made have less than 10 replies :)

Any chart that makes a valid likeness between you and hunter would seem to undermine this statement.
