Updated with August 2010 data

| Aug 23, 2010 at 10:37 | comment | added | Andreas Bonini | @ChrisF: you should probably count the number of users with more than 200 reputation who logged in the last month to get a more accurate picture... Many people register and never come back. | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 21:21 | comment | added | ChrisF Mod | @Jon - yes that's exactly what I wanted. It shows that while the total number of bounties is increasing, it's not increasing as rapidly as the number of users. | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 20:46 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Georg: Yes, something like that. Note that the query results for total users actually starts 6 months before the graph starts, so according to the site definition of an inactive user, the whole graph takes this into account. I also don't see the point of defining our own criteria for what qualifies as an active user, as it would always be under dispute -- might as well just use the same definition as the site itself. | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 20:31 | comment | added | Georg Fritzsche | @Jon: Hm, but wasn't that something like >= 6 months? | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 20:02 | comment | added | Pekka | @Jon I see! That makes it difficult.... | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 19:58 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Pekka: I'd love to include something like the average bounty size, however, if a bounty expires with no award, the bounty size is not currently available in the data dump (ugh). I'm not sure grabbing those stats with the current data would be valid. (Also, in the new system, there is no extra +50 added to the bounty, which would skew the curve.) | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 19:48 | comment | added | Pekka | @Jon It also stands to reason that the size of bounties plays a role... If you are willing to invest some more time in this :) | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 19:47 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Georg: IIRC, there are mechanisms in place to purge old user accounts (with some set of criteria I can't remember right now) -- those accounts are deleted from the data automatically. So essentially, these query results take that into account already, according to the system's definition of "inactive user." | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 19:36 | comment | added | Georg Fritzsche | Maybe the bounties/user rate isn't that informative and it should be bounties/activeUser instead (where active could e.g. mean at least one question/answer in that month)? I'd guess there are quite many "dead" accounts. | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 18:50 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Chris: Completed. I hope that's what you asked for. | |

Added bounties set per user as requested
|
| Aug 22, 2010 at 18:33 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Chris: Okay. I need to correct the red line anyway -- I realized it's actually a month too far to the right. | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 17:52 | comment | added | ChrisF Mod | Can you do bounties per user as well to see if that's increasing? | |
| Aug 22, 2010 at 17:43 | comment | added | Jon Seigel | @Pekka: Thanks! I added the total number of registered users to the graph for comparison. | |
