Last thing we will always be thankful to your stats for the local boards... really they give big encouragement to all members to see their names and activity on the top. Thank you once again from all of us.
I am glad to hear that. The main reason why I included yours, Nigerian and Bangladesh community into my overviews ~2 years ago is when I realized that activity in those topics regularly surpasses activity of many other local boards, meaning there is a valid argument for creation of additional local boards as I understand their importance for both forum and members coming from those countries. And I also thought that there is a slight chance that comparisons might even induce healthy sort of competition between local boards (and members) which could result in more activity.


In terms of simple math, how is that a fair comparison?
Speaking of fair comparisons, it also wasn't fair from CryptopreneurBrainboss to bring into this thread two very different active member tables (yours that included members who weren't active for months or even a year and theirs that included members active in the first 2 weeks of December), making difference in active members much bigger than it actually is.

Honestly I see no reason why both of you are feeling somehow offended that they used you getting a local board as an argument for them getting theirs, like that is somehow diminishing your success. If anything, I expected kinda "yes theymos, they deserve their local board too kind of responses, and not this.

Sure, shahzadafzal could have and should have made a better request topic (and he still can add more arguments) but I really expected different type of support from Nigerian members as if anyone knows how hard it was to get one, its you. Or you think that everyone should go through the same hoops like you did in order to keep your success bigger? I argue the opposite, you should have gotten your local board at least year ago and not everyone should reach your numbers in order to get one.
