[QUOTE=LitmusSmut;2766846]Hello ISG Admin.
Can I put in a request to change the name of the board from "Medellin Reports" to "Medellin Opinions". It is pedantic, but accurate.
My first post was on 9/01/2021, #48892, some 692 pages ago. While this board has provided some valuable information and I would like to see it stay around, however, the change in the board title would reflect what is actually going on here. The following is my reasoning:
Statistical Percentage Values.
1% Reports (of various quality, and yet an inflated value).
2% Questions.
2% Replies to questions (including 20% of those being snarky RTFF remarks, which is an absolutely insane reply because of the time spent typing the snark could have answered the question, and then later the replier becomes part of the 95% mentioned below).
95% Opinions, arguments (less manly ribbing and seemingly becoming more and more personal), throw away "Yaas Queen!" remarks, waxing philosophical about what a "10" is, waxing philosophical about what the dollar value of pussy is, waxing philosophical about economics (always supply and demand. Basic 101 stuff), complaining about disruptions in the market due to newbies and weekend warriors.
This is what 1-year of data looks like:
Date Range: 9/1/21 - 11/30/22 = 456 days.
Number of Posts during that range: 59270 - 48892 = 10,378 post.
Pages Generated Per Day: 692/456 = 1. 5 pages per day.
Post Frequency: 10378/456 = 22 posts per day.
Report Frequency: 22*1% = 1 report post 5 per day.
Frequency of a Report: 5/1. 5 = Once every 3. 333 days.
Conclusion: Talk about a bunch of noise and static to find a scrap of value.
And. If the people complaining about Medellin becoming more popular and more expensive, then look the culprit is the frequency of posts and the volume everyone shouts out about how great Medellin is. Yes, the ISG page is probably just a drop in the bucket compared to YouTube -- and dummy YouTubers who are not even making making money from their street videos, just raising lust and awareness -- but the over-communication on the "Reports" forum certainly doesn't help when a YouTuber converts to ISG and sees a literal jerk circle. That convert is going to want whip his junk out and start beating it like mad, too.
Looking forward to the title change so I can at least manage expectations.
Thanks and regards.
