    May 23 was 18 posts behind May 22. Not bad all things considered.

    June 23 had a massive drop off from June 22, 198 posts down year on year.

    June 23 did have some great weather though.

    July 23 will beat Jul 22 but only by a handful of posts it would seem.


    All and all not bad, worrying still no word from @TRS30, TRIED REACHING OUT TO him on Discord as well and no joy.

    I had a feeling the stats were going to be up. A good bit more traffic on the forum in the last 2 or 3 weeks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 11,629 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Some positives in there considering it felt so quiet in here recently. Coming to the 150 day mark i'm lookig forward to seeing a few more active threads in here.

    Such a shame @TRS30 doesnt post anymore, he was a great contributor and got the whole vibe of this place. I hope all is well with him & he finds his way back to us at some point. Either way if he see's this I wish him well.

    We have now surpassed 2009,2010 & 2011 annual postings and are closing in on 2014.

    4k will be surpassed in August.

    The stats for August are in!

    While being ahead on July-23 by 186 posts we were behind on August-22 by 251 posts.

    August 2023 was the 4th busiest August on record.

    August definitely is the start of the busy season for us, massive increases every year from July to August and this year no different, big pickup in daily posting all month long.

    There has definitely been an uplift of posting in the last four weeks! I normally only post when I'm at work & I don't work Thursdays; the last few weeks I've had a good few bolded threads of a Friday morning.

    Tuesday is the busiest day of the week for posting, Saturday being the quietest.

    Monday is the 2nd busiest and Sunday the second quietest to no surprise!

    Looks like 2023 will be the 6th busiest year on record trailing behind, 2018,2022,2019,2020 & 2021.

    606 posts behind last year - I wouldn't have thought it was that much!

    Wasn't there a Christmas game thread last year that really boosted posting. May not have been November but I think that's when it was started.
