The time has come to find out who the 2nd most active poster of 2020 was, and by what margin were they behind Meekul Joseph? I'll be posting chunks of the charts over the next 2-3 days, kicking off with data for some of the forums...

Hype! Thinking I will have climbed this year as that crazy Teams period should provide quite a boost.

 

Pleased that the Ariana AF has landed somewhere in the top 10.

Pleasantly surprised to see the Kylie AF somehow managed to make Top 10.

Impressive year for News & Politics to come ahead of BJSC, I don't think that's normal. Conversely, without having the data, and for obvious reasons, this would be the lowest Eurovision has been considering how the three main live threads normally count for about 2000 posts alone - as in I'd normally expect it to have about 5k posts or more.

I gotta say, I've been contributing in the News & Politics forum a lot this past year and judging by the stats quite a few people have as well.

Oh wow, a great result for the Shawn AF :o :cheer:

A stellar year for Dance again, great to see it firmly in the top ten.

I didn't even know Shawn had an AF. :lol:

 

Oooops

Yeah not surprised about N&P being so high. I among many others have been venturing into it far more than previously for very obvious reasons.

 

Great to see Sports landing a top 10 finish for the year.

News & Politics being so high is definitely on brand for 2020 ~

U.K. chart forum outselling the top five combined

Proud of Drag Race & all our posters for being so far ahead of all the other AFs through the year!

 

It's been a real lifeline for me throughout the year to keep occupied on something practical that means a lot to so many of y'all! & it's been great to be a mod again :D

Proud of Drag Race & all our posters for being so far ahead of all the other AFs through the year!

 

...apart from the 10 that are yet to be announced :whistle: :kink:

Obviously :P

 

I may be two braincells fighting over a body but I can read numbers :P

I'm wondering if I started posting early enough to be on here!

Are we concerned that threads like this might send the wrong message to membership by promoting quantity over quality? When I was a co-admin of a forum, I used to do end of year award threads but the recognition would be geared towards quality. For example, we would have awards such as "Thread of the year for most thought provoking discussion", "Member of the year", and this would typically be someone who consistently contributes in a manner that is conducive to positive and engaging discussion and adherence to forum values. Things of that nature ..

 

My concern with the above is potentially encouraging the off-topic one liners that don't contribute to or foster quality discussion.
