Inactive Local Boards in the Forum.

[Agbe]

These are some of the local boards which I discovered that has not been making any contribution in the forum for a long time. I didn't mean no harm but just to the notice of all to know if really the creation of these boards actualized? Would the admin regret of creating this Boards?

In my personal opinion, what I think about this is that there may be different rules and requirements of different forums about the local board, and maybe all the local boards that you have mentioned may have completed those rules and requirements earlier. And that's why they got their local board. I see some such inactive boards in the others forum as well.
Although I personally think that it is better not to keep the local boards which are inactive in the list of local board, although later if they are active again, it would be better to return their board to them.

I thought when I read the title of this thread that the conversation was going to discuss ideas, promote criteria and somehow increase traffic to local languages, but OP is worried that admin wasted his time, seriously, man, in reality this forum has more sections and diversity of topics that make it accessible to a large community,

I think that in principle that is the idea, not to let users escape regardless of where they come from.

For example, you do not mention the Spanish board, but that is not indicative that the section is better than those mentioned. It is just that by not being in your data table, it only indicates that there is activity, but how good is that activity.

That said, when looking at those boards that you mention, I am not surprised by their low traffic in some of them, because let's say that population-wise it is a low density of users.

But in our case, there are more than 500 million Spanish speakers, it is not justified that the monthly limit is sometimes 5 users, and I think I am exaggerating.

Finally, let's talk about what can be done, things like improving SEO, encouraging participation, etc.

Aside the local boards mentioned by op, there are several other boards that are not active too, can we really say or assume that the admin made a mistake in creating all of those boards that are inactive and he is possibly regretting it? The answer is a capital No if you ask me.

The forum naturally is yet to start getting enough traffic from different countries, so it's very possible that local boards with less number of users from a country tied to that local board will not be as active, but certainly, such board will become active as soon as the forum becomes more popular and people from different countries start flocking to the forum..

Even btt have some boards that are not really active, can we say that Theymos made a mistake creating such boards, the answer is no.

Why would you regret it?
He didn't pay the monthly rent for it, so he had extra expenses for those boards. Now at least it is safe, he gave such local boards a chance, but there was not enough interest and activity.
The reason for this can be different things, for example, the Netherlands has a lot of restrictions when it comes to crypto or casinos, maybe that also demotivates people to get involved in such discussions.

It's all with time like I did mention in my comment above, you are absolutely right about the admin having nothing to regret, crypto is still a growing industry, ecosystem, business or call it whatever, and as more people get involved, and this forum positioning itself well to receive new users from all around the world, it's just a matter of time and those boards that seem deserted at the moment will all pop back to become lively, the magic is adoption, as crypto adoption grows in all countries, more people will join forums like this and traffic will be driven to every board - it's all a matter of time.

Yeah, regional restrictions Could be a big demotivation for members from such regions, but aside that the admin has nothing to lose and in fact this helps him to solve future demands if at any point those local boards decide to become active, and there will not be any need to start creating a board for them.

Lastly, I think those boards won't remain inactive forever because as time goes on, we will many of the members in the forum from such places will locate their local communities and start engaging in discussions.

There are actually many inactive boards and local boards including the "chinese local" most of these boards where created on expectations that these boards will be filled of users after the surge of users here teleported from bitcointalk (if i'm not mistaken). One of the reasons why admin posted to find moderators on all of these boards as i was notified from the telegram bot for admin's posts.

[hugeblack]

I think we need to define inactive boards before we make judgments about them.


Are inactive boards boards that do not have active members or active discussions?
For example, in my local board there are only two active members but the number of views is high. Is this board inactive or active?


If there are no active members, no posts, or low views, then it is better to archive that board instead of deleting it. Otherwise, there is no need to do anything.

if really the creation of these boards actualized?

I won't do anything for those local boards, every once in a while a native speaker will find theirs. This forum wasn't had good quality discussions for years, but that doesn't bother him. Then admin have just made a brilliant initiative that has increased traffic and attracted a few advertisers, we can't expect big changes all around too soon.

Regional restrictions? How? Bitcoin is decentralized and we can participate in any corner of the world and that is where p2p was created to support the buying and selling. And also if those regions were restricted then the post view in the local board would have also reduce but the post view in those boards are very high.

Are inactive boards boards that do not have active members or active discussions?

  Yes the inactive boards are the ones that do not have active members and active discussions because the  boards were created to have active discussions and not for them to only view and go without making any contribution or commitment. I also try to know our Neighbor's Country "Ghana" why the decline of posts and activities, since when I created the thread till date, there is no comment but it is more than 5k views. And meaning they are in the forum and in the board but don't want to make any comment or post. Then what is the essence of creating the board when the owners can't comment their instead they prefer the general board.

That's true bitcoin has the decentralized system that any corner from the world people can use it if they have access the internet. If I talk about our region then bitcoin is illegal in our region even then there are large scale of people are conducting with it and as well as our local board is also one of the active board on the bitcointalk forum and also the altcoinstalk forum.
But there are also limitation if government do that kinds of surveillance like people can't use their bank account while buy bitcoin or cryptocurrency with the fiat. But I don't think that the Board you have mention all of these region have these kind of issues.

Your points are valid. Because some time we get tired to scroll up the forum, I think it is not only matter about the local board I think those which boards are not in active or can be merged it should be done. That will makes the forum more formalized.
And if I talk about the local board which are in active I have also the question why not they should be transfer on the others board or is this not possible right now ? because there are lots of child board and topic in those boards.

In the month of February 2021, Nigeria government banned cryptocurrency mostly Bitcoin from all the commercial banks and other monetary institutions yet Nigeria was ranked in 2021 and 2022 as the highest cryptocurrency traded country in Africa and second to the world. And right now the government is fighting against Centralized exchanges but we are stable and gallant in the industry. In most time we buy and sell from those we know. Even me have bought from people I know many times and and sell to them as well.

[bitmover]

I don't see a problem with inactive local boards.

I see problem with inactive boards related to stuff that would fit in an active board...
But local boards are very region specific , no problem in keeping them.

They might get some activity later. Who knows
