Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Forum Data Dump

Howdy
I'm making a request for public information to be made easier to use. Nothing more. No need for code implementation, no arguments over how something should be implemented (if at all).

Honestly: Normally I would just run off and do things, and no one would be the wiser. However, there are two reasons I refrain from that:
1. This situation
2. Loading every forum page would take a lot of bandwidth from me, and apparently from the servers. $$$ gone.

I'm asking for a public data dump to make more data from that. What does that mean?
Well, I'd like to delve into this data:

  • Most woots per post

  • Most woots per thread

  • Most woots received per user

  • Most woots given per user

  • Peak posting times

  • Post/received woot ratio

  • And, other things (to be thought of)

So, I'd ask for post/topic data and a user ID/username table. I don't see much use in the rest, but that's up for folks to debate as well.

Further, other coders with their own ideas could run functions with the data to find out their own questions (if others are so interested)

And so, I ask the public's consent. My argument is that all this information is already public (it's a forum after all) and this makes nerds' lives easier.

Re: Forum Data Dump

So, do I take this silence as agreement? Do I dare?

Can we move forward, then?

I mean I'm okay with it. No personal information would be revealed here.

Re: Forum Data Dump

Can we get a woots counter like right underneath our post count? Yes? Thank you.

^Well, that's outside the scope of this thread; it was discussed elsewhere in fact.

@Different: Good deal.

Re: Forum Data Dump

Hey, my get-out-of-double-post free card!

The results are in, nerds!

Most woots per post - different already supplied this!
Most woots per thread - note: I removed some users like fromgan and nkf1 because they wootspammed. But I wasn't uniform so they pop up here and there.
Most woots received per user gg Creature. Also, gkabyss represents all the non-users so honorable mention to all the fallen forumers.
Most woots given per user use your logic and reasoning on the outliers. 33k really
Peak posting times - oops I cut off the X-axis. It starts at 0 (GMT?) and hits 23 on the right. Why d'ya suppose we have two peaks? the european/united states demographic blurbs?
Post/received woot ratio - minimum posts: 10 100 1000
And, other things (to be thought of)

Posts per week
BONUS

I'm tired now, but what other metrics have ya?

Re: Forum Data Dump

highest topics/posts ratio
users who made the topics with the most replies

most warnings received by user
most bans received by user

He only has access to post/topic info, and IIRC ban information is totally removed from the database when the ban expires.

Re: Forum Data Dump

I'd love most time spent on the forums but if this can't be said

average time a user spent on eeforums

then I guess not

the forums don't log when users get on and off so that's not possible even for me.

Re: Forum Data Dump

Replies to the user's threads -- idk if that's what you were going for. slightly ambiguous.
Replies to the user's threads -- took the top 1000 topics ordered by reply count and tallied up who showed up most, not entirely unlike your stats page.

My topic/post ratio must be off. Thuggishprune has 6 and coco has 2, the rest are at <= 1... which would make more sense: topics/post or posts/topic? I guess you can find one with the other.

How about a "total topics created per others' responses to said topics" or something like that

Sounds like a topics per post thing. Or are you wondering, for each topic I create, how many responses do I get on average?

That's cool, but for the most part, it just returns a list of who got their account patched back with the forum merge. Y'know, the february flood of posts that weren't actually made in February.

so... I tried throwing those out. And, now I see why you wanted to see this list. //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/wink

Longest Forum Hiatus

edit: oh god, I've only gone 3 days in a row without posting. yet somehow frog, he who has the longest streak, has 3 as well. O.o
