Silly Man,
You are right that most of the people here in this area of this board are computer engineers, but when it comes to posting a message on this board other things also play. Consider following things..
1. When there is lot of activity on the board people would like to participate and whould like to share their info (understanding that many people are looking for that info makes some one post their info). Note that after we moved to this new board user activity went way down.
2. IDs from old board didn't work right away on this new board. One had to re-enable IDs. It took almost two weeks for me to do that. The reason could be I am too busy with other things and didn't have enought time to go through all those instructions, it was getting into a loop when I tried to reset my password! Now think of some one else who wants to mearly post only one or two messages using their existing ID and going through all these patiently. Also note that after approvals one may be in celebrating mood and probably has very little time for these things in changed environment and post a message.
3. Also in my openion while some one is waiting for GC approval, it looks like a very important thing but once the approval comes in it will become just another normal thing (based on others experience). So for us (waiters) it may be a bit difficult to understand but for those on the other side of the line may not have enough time/patience to go through all these and post a message on this new board.
On the other side I did observe that CSC approvals come in batches and when they are in the process of cleaning up, usually the approval rate goes down.
SaksD,
It's a nice graph, thanks for the effort. But may I suggest you to do analasys based on ND instead of MD? As CSC follows ND for approvals it may make more sense if you do it based on ND.
Thanks
