Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards yet but I do hope that theymos and Cyrus will do something about it soon because I think their numers are definitely strong enough to give them their own local board.

Thanks, Rikafip for another good monthly overview and the words you wrote about our local thread. We just wanted to make sure that the numbers continue to remain similar in terms of members and the number of posts made in our local thread. We had some doubts because every week there are some newbie accounts that join and then leave. But, look at the thread now. You will notice a number of new accounts ranked up in the last six months including me. If this continues for long enough, and the global community support to create a local board for us, we will be happy to have a board.

Oh damn I completely forgot about that, your bot not being able scrape the forum due recent issues so number of posts appear a bit lower than they actually are. You shoulnd't have mentioned that lol, ignorance is bliss. Cheesy

If LoyceV doesn't have the total post numbers, DdmrDdmr might have. Anyway, at least its the same for all local boards since they are all relatively equally affected.

Month of June didn't affect it at all since the issue was very recent. So, I assume the data for June is accurate so far. You have one month in hand, in the meantime, LoyceV and TryNinja might do something about it. LoyceV already planned to make a "catch up" scraper (Of course if he has enough time).

Considering how long this takes, and how many posts I've missed by now, I'm planning to make a "catch up" scraper: once the forum works again, I can check the latest topics with new posts on each board, and scrape the last pages of all of them until I caught up to the start of the outage. It will mean some redundant scraping, and I won't catch deleted posts, but at least the voids in my archive will get smaller.
If I can find the time, I expect it to be quite a lot of work.
