how is posts per day calculated? - roger_smith - 09-20-2014
Title says it all. I'm just wondering how the forum calculates posts per day. Does it look at days active, or days registered?

Usually days registered. You should do the math on some inactive members and check it out

I guess I should have learn2google....
Of course the MyBB docs talk about it.
Quote:Averages
The time (referred to below as time) used to calculate these averages is the difference between the current time and when the first user (usually UID 1, the administrator who installed the forum) was created, in days.
Posts per day
This is calculated by dividing the total number of posts by the time (see above).

Well that's fucked for someone who would register today.

I think that's global posts per day, not per user now that I re-read it

Per user is based on your registration date, as in posts divided by days. Global PPD is calculated with the above.
