No promises on when or if I'll get to anything that you suggest, but I appreciate the fodder for things to think about. Don't worry too much about whether you think a question is answerable - that's part of the fun.
Examples of things that come to mind as stuff I might look at:
-What percentage of OG posters are still active today?
-How have participation rates in individual subforums ebbed and flowed over the years?
-How does the political leanings of the President impact the political leanings of who is active in DC? (This one will be tricky, and I might need a partner who has been a long-term DC participant help me categorize people. I think it's an interesting question, though.)
-What percentage of total posts in each forum come from that forum's top posters (e.g., how many people make up >50% of posts in each forum)?

I like would to see a breakdown of post activity in 2022-2023 sorted by the year the users joined. To see what Class is still the strongest.
