Your post/coding Milestones!

You might want to cut down a bit though, some dont add anything at all ._.

Ahem, look who is talking! ;p

So yeah, stop the offtopic, fellows, this is the place to post miscallenous posting/coding milestones, not arguing about spammin'/posting, okay? ^^

How many words per post (excluding quotes and source code) did they have in total compared to mine, though?

Snektron · May 11, 2015, 03:18:38 PM

That'd require a few MySQuirreL calls, but defenitely doable

Yeah, DJ probably has more words per post than me. I'll also stop posting spamish things.

This kind of database request will be probably quite expensive and shouldn't let be asked for many times.

Cemetech has a feature that counts your average words per posts and it doesn't appear that resource-heavy. I am curious about how Kerm does it...

Another thing I wish we had was a SMF 2.0 version of the monthly post stats per user mod. In your profile, it showed how many posts you made every month. Sadly, the author of that mod abandoned it before Omni even started using SMF.

Well, that would depend on how you implement it. I mean if you have a row for every user (and only count total words, not per-post) i'd just require one or two calls when posting. Though it would not count the previous posts, but that is a one-time process and can be done when theres less activity

It would only be visible in the user profile I think. Cemetech probably had a reason to not make it visible in topic view.

Snektron · May 13, 2015, 01:44:35 PM

Yeah because then you need to save it per-topic, or even per-post instead of only per-user. Though per-topic and per-post would only add a single column, it will probably take way more processing power.

Dream of Omnimaga · May 13, 2015, 07:16:21 PM

My concern is if there are 15 different posters in one topic page, then it would take 15 times more processing power to check how many words per post in average the user has.

Also Juju should put a copy of his post stats graph (see bottom of page) on CW server. It should preferably be a version from March 5th 2012 or older, in case he lost his authors rights for it after being demoted from Omnimaga admin (unless back then he released it under a license or copyrighted it to himself instead of Omni?). Although Cooliojazz made the recent posts mod that Omnimaga uses, since he released it under Omnimaga git repository with no license, so he can no longer grant permission by himself to other websites for using it (OmnomIRC is fine because it's released under the GPL). That post stats graph would be interesting so we could see a graphical representation of our site activity over the last months, plus the 2012 version had an average line, unlike newer versions. However, that version lacks the years https://web.archive.org/web/20111210085134/http://www.omnimaga.org/statsgraph.php .
