I just go this curiosity because I can see huge downfall in the posting activity on many boards maybe because of not too many signature campaigns.

The number of posts has been going down since theymos announced the Enhanced newbie restrictions & requirements, less than 2 months ago.
Since then, I've been keeping track of weekly changes:

On average, in 3 weeks before the announcement, the forum saw 353,813 new posts per week.

In the first week after the announcement, 286408 posts were made (-19.05%).
In the second week after the announcement, 280503 posts were made (-20.72%).
In the third week after the announcement, 259694 posts were made (-26.60%).
In the fourth week after the announcement, 263685 posts were made (-25.47%).
In the fifth week after the announcement, 240339 posts were made (-32.07%).
In the sixth week after the announcement, 240045 posts were made (-32.15%).
In the seventh week after the announcement, 219689 posts were made (-37.91%).

The forum now gets 31k new posts per day, which was 50k posts per day before the changes.
If you check patrol, you'll see it's still mostly useless spam.
