How can we encourage posting here.

[Rruchi man]

There is a reduction in the number of engaging posts in the forum and on our local board, not only because the incentive for some Nigerians to be active no longer exists but also because there is a reluctance to start engaging topics. Our ability to create engaging topics will create more engagement and traffic in this forum and on our local board, which will benefit us all because there will be more people to learn from. What do you think about this? How can we boost discussions here?

[kulkhan]

Yes we need to creat encourage posting here in local bord. Like in our Bangla Bord our moderator announced who will creat new topic in our local Bangla Bord he will get marit for every informational and qualitiful post. I think it is good way to creat new topic or post in local bord.
Of every Bord our moderator announce this kinds offer then engagement and post will increase in local bord. I think it is best way for increase engagement in local y.

You want the truth or a silver-coated one?

I am just sticking with the truth people stop posting when there is no incentive for them so give them a slot in a signature campaign and see their activity, will be making posts constantly.

How about granting Karma to whoever is being active and giving their efforts?

It is rare to find a topic without responses, but we really need to talk about altcoins, as most of the talk is about Bitcoin, and to a limited extent, some altcoins, and most of it is related to price and not in-depth discussions.
Regarding the local council, you cannot force someone to join, and even paid contributions may not be an incentive if you can easily get $70 in BTT.

What metric are you checking out here? I’m curious to how you are measuring the number of Engagements here in the forum.

I think as long as you discuss proactively and with content that are not repeating the search engine would be able to put out this for more to the people who are searching for a specific subject or topic.

[Kemarit]

Just like in the other community, there could be at least incentive to see members posting here. However, if you are not that active then how can a campaign manager hire you? If you're account will appear if there is a campaign and then you apply, you might not get a slot.

So if you want to be at least consider in any campaign, then simply post at least in a week and be engaging. And maybe who knows, there might be a influx of campaign that is no longer permitted in the other community but very much welcome here.

And we probably give kudos as well to campaign managers who can get a client and then have their campaign here for exposure and marketing.

[SamReomo]

I highly agree with hugeblack's opinion. In this forum we should try to shift our focus to altcoins as well because there aren't many valuable threads of altcoins and those are highly needed here.

I also agree with him once again that we can't force someone to create threads or join valuable discussions of a local board. Even if someone is ready to pay them to make good posts at that local board then I still doubt that most users won't be able to perform well at some local board.

[KingsDen]

Op, here is doing fine when compared to other forums of same capacity. The only incentive holding posters here is signature campaign. So, it is normal that engagement will reduce when campaigns reduce. As time goes, people will start building businesses here which will keep them even when there's no campaign.

What metric are you checking out here? I’m curious to how you are measuring the number of Engagements here in the forum.

There's no special metrics used by Op to know that engaged has reduced here apart from direct comparison with BTT, forgetting that even if you have to pause the activities in BTT, in 10yrs time, here might not be able to match BTT.

Forum statistics say that there are 3778 Guests, 68 Users, so many people watch and few interact, which means that the forum content is good and that more should be encouraged to login.
There are also 1,509,412 Posts compared to 89,382 Members, which means an average of 16 posts per member, which is a fair number.
Statistics for the past months show an increase

Everyone can take part of the responsibility and try to help make the forum even more active, but I have always been more on the side of quality than quantity. I personally have not noticed that the activity on the forum has decreased compared to a few months ago, but we should take into account that sometimes people are busy with real life and do not have time to be active on the forum.

Hey buddy it's seems you have couple of mistakes on your typing.
Anyway in our local board what was the initiative is giving karma to good quality topics not the merit it's not the bitcointalk forum

You have pointed out an important thing. I have always repeated this what that we need quality not only the quantity. I think if the quality is good then there is no problem if the activity is low.  Moreover, if the quality is good, the quantity will automatically increase.
But rewarding users for good quantity and quality activity can motivate other users be it karma or something else.

[Freemind]

I think one of the best ways to do this is to make users, especially new ones, understand that their forum account is actually like an investment in the future. Not only because of the possibility of participating in signature campaigns or bounties, but actively participating in the forum is the best way to learn, since that is what many new users ask, learn about trading, which are the best exchanges...

And although the forum is "more focused" on altcoins, that does not mean that we should talk less about Bitcoin, on the contrary, talking about the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem in general is what can generate more conversations and better threads/posts.

I agree we must focus on quality rather than quantity, and it's good to know that there are fewer redundant topics here, and all the news about Cryptocurrency is always updated, thanks to some of our members who provided us with threads on their articles sites.
but even if the topic is good there is a lack of interaction among the members it will just be rendered useless, so interact with topic that we know or can contribute.

[bitterguy28]

The very mean thing we need to do is to engage to those who created their topics .

There is a discrimination sometimes when newbie created a thread there are very few that engage with it makes that account and other newbies to prevent themselves from creating new one.

and aside from that is Bullying , because there are so much bullies and attackers when you are new and does not know many things in the forum.

with all of those terms ? for sure each locals will gain more and more posters and engager .

[NotATether]

There isn't really a way to.

As is the case with the other forum, the main reason why people come over here are for the signature campaigns. When those are no longer available, whether they are closed for new participants or for other reason, they naturally do not come and post here. Same for if a user was previously active in a signature campaign but now they are no longer in one.
