Resource Season 40 Posting Stats

[GreyCrow]

With regards to what exactly?

Thats what I am asking

You seem to think something is unacceptable. I'm trying to find out what your acceptable level is

Thats what I am asking

You seem to think something is unacceptable. I'm trying to find out what your acceptable level is

Maybe let's start with this:
Number of posters that posted every match = 94
Number of posters that never posted this season = 93

I would say this is unacceptable.

I would say the following is more acceptable than not:
Number of posters that posted every match = 94
Number of posters that never posted this season = 26

Unpopular opinion, but last expansion wasn't needed. More fun with fuller team lists that already existed.

Yep. We'd better cancel the latest expansion team. All awards and premierships won by them revert to the runner ups.

They had a good run.

Fantastic! I get a fifth flag and Wonders would need one more to be #firsttoseven

I hear what you're saying but I also think that the expansion has probably propped up the league for a little longer than if it didn't happen and so by that measure alone, I think it was a good thing.

I have to say, the idea that clubs have had to have someone harass and cajole them into monitoring their own posting stats and then have said person collate them for them publicly, is a sad indictment on the league.

Do you mean Tonga Bob cos I’ve been assisting with the calculations to this end, as have the others - DemurePrincess T2B_ ShaunDuggan GreyCrow Falconista tony Scythe Braklet Mooch & jackster83 - who helped by collating at the club-level?

If you are asking if clubs could be more active or resourceful, then fair question and the history has been that guys like yourself serial_thrilla big_icky AnUltimateRessie (and Tonga Bob ) have shown initiative and perhaps got tired or burnt by the workload.

I guess occasionally Admins have done the work themselves - eg NaturalDisaster or Kennedy Parker - or coaxed the clubs to do it.

Again, fair point.

Why aren't teams just posting their own stats in their own team threads? Why do some clubs barely have team threads? And so on, and so forth.

Maybe the truth is because this is meant to be fun, but I guess it’s also true that work behind the scenes isn’t always noticed or appreciated

Do you really get out of it what you put into it?

You're probably asking the wrong guy.

Maybe it’s a rhetorical question

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Why do some clubs barely have team threads?

I rarely post in ours because of the team PM. They aren't particularly needed these days.

 

[Tonga Bob]

I’ve found that there’s a positive correlation between healthy clubs and providing posting stats. Maybe there’s something in that?

 

[GreyCrow]

I do

Why do some clubs barely have team threads?

Because its function has changed now that Team PMs are for saying stuff about other posters like that TheInjuryFactory guy

I use team threads for game info coming and going and posting numbers

And so on, and so forth.

Exactly

 

[Tonga Bob]

I do

I see you and I appreciate you

 

[TheInjuryFactory]

I do

Proud of you.

Not everyone needs to post in a team thread all the time, PMs are for banter, less so for engagement/club fostering. They're both equally as important imo.

A well maintained team thread is a sign of club health, a well run club. Don't need to be chasing the clubs up for stats to recognise that.

This whole thread should just be Bob copypastng from team threads. If it would even be required.

I see their usage the other way around honestly. If it was still season 9-15 in the before times I would agree with you. But whatever works for the clubs ultimately.

I seem to remember somebody attempting to do something about this exact issue. Only to receive near universal backlash.

You are truly a martyr for the cause my friend. Your efforts shall not go in vain.

It's not so much about me. I just noticed a concerning trend and felt that it needed to be arrested.

I think the impact of the downfall of Team Threads has been massively underestimated.

10-15 seasons ago after the round's sim has been posted you'd have 10-12 team threads on the first page every week without fail. LG members posting stats, write-ups, some initial reactions to the result, banter between teammates.

If a poster was getting a bit jaded at their current club, they can take a look at numerous team threads to get an idea of club's culture and team they might take interest in. Nowadays, it appears only posting powerhouses keep their team threads active, while most others keep fun interactions behind closed doors. So it should come as no surprise why clubs like the Warriors, the Old Boys, Demons and Bears continue to be the most consistently attractive places for recruits so the rich get richer.

The team thread was basically a marketing channel for new recruits within the league, and it's been bad business for many clubs to neglect them.

Well said!

If only the sim looked at our team thread
