For the sake of transparency, how exactly does this work?

Buzz- Reactions and comments to articles on the serial I suppose?

I'm taking Dhruv Tara's article (for last week) as an example- (https (dot) indiaforums (dot) com/article/portraying-dhruvs-emotions-over-the-past-few-weeks-has-been-exhilarating-ishaan-dhawan_199724)

I can see 300 Nice, 150 Awesomes, 302 Loved currently (the exact number may have been slightly lower when CM was computed, but would roughly be around the same figure).

There is only one comment on the article.

Buzz for it shows as 28 as per CM- how exactly did it get calculated?

Rating shows as 475- is this the cumulative rating count of everyone for it? (if I rated it 5 stars on one day of the week, and 4 stars for the remainder, is it 29 from my end?)

Views- shows as 8. What calculates as a view? A visit to the main forum page by a registered user?

Activity- 10 new threads with only the OP's post versus 1 thread having 10 replies in it? What would be the score in both cases? Is the uniqueness of the poster and thread creator also counted? If yes, how?

Followers- only followers who click follow in the last week? Or past ones are counted too?

Will be sharing a more detailed explanation soon.

We are excited to announce some improvements to our forum that we think you'll find useful.

Increased Topics Per Page

First up, we've updated the Topic List Page to display 30 topics per page instead of the previous 20. This allows for easier navigation and lets you scan through more topics at a glance.

Showing TRP of Shows in the ChaskaMeter section.

In addition to this, we are now displaying the Television Rating Points (TRP) next to the shows that we have available on our forum. This will give you a better idea of the popularity of each show and help you make more informed choices.

We hope these updates improve your experience on our forum. As always, we value your feedback and encourage you to let us know what you think of these changes.

What happened to the weekly subscription emailsof trending topics? I don't receive them anymore

Wonderful improvements dear Vijay

Thanks for this .

This will be very helpful for members as well as moderators .

Seven days ago, I sent this PM to the Creator and the Manager of a private forum, but neither of them has replied or even opened the PM, although they have been visiting India Forums all along:

Could one of you please reopen this thread in your Ramayana Katha forum?

URL Not Available

I have been posting YouTube videos of several of the songs from this collection in the Music Corner forum, with the words and translations. I would like to make them available in this topic too.

Thanks!

What should I do? To acquire privileges to reopen my own topic, can I request permission from the India Forums admin to become a Manager of this private forum, or to take over as Creator, or to merge it with my existing Saṃskṛta Text Discussion private forum?

I previously reported a similar issue with the same forum in November 2022, and the Creator did the needful, but I got no reply from India Forums:

What should happen in this not-so-hypothetical situation? Earlier discussion did not identify whom to contact about it.

Member A created a private forum, and made Member B a Manager, but neither of them ever posted a topic or reply in it. All four topics in that private forum were started by Member C. One or two replies came from each of three other members, of whom Member D is a Moderator in public forums.

Member E sent a Join Request around November 3, and no one accepted it. Wanting to make a detailed post about the subject for which the private forum exists, she sent a PM to Member C, asking for information on the subject. Member C replied with a link to his topic in the private forum that contained the information. Member E explained her difficulty and asked Member C to accept her into the private forum, and he forwarded her request by PM to both Member A and Member B on November 6 (according to their time zones).

Although Member A and Member B have "visited" India Forums every day since then (up to November 8 in their time zones), they have not opened Member C's PMs or accepted the Join Request from Member E.

Member E, who joined India Forums almost two years ago but remains a Newbie with 1 post and 0 comments, has finally found a subject that she wants to discuss, but India Forums is losing out on her participation due to the setup of private forums.

Solution 1. Should nothing be done, recognizing the autonomy of Members A and B to exclude anyone from their private forum and to choose which PMs they read?

Solution 2. Who has authority to decide that the private forum is "abandoned" by its Creator and Manager, and at what point? Would the forum be archived, or would Member C be considered to take over, or would Member D be preferred because she is already a Moderator?

Solution 3. Since Member C is the Creator of another private forum with a broader subject, where the same topics could be discussed, and where Members B, D, and E are members, could the two private forums be merged? To whom would the request be made?
