Bike Hub 2022: Year in Review

[NeverNotRolling]

Seems like BikeHub are making good revenue with the BikeHub Pay feature, good stuff! I see Standard Bank has also started a similar escrow service. I'm guessing we need it more in this country with all the scammers and oil rig workers about.

The number of comments appear to be down. I remember the top few were in excess of 3000 posts. Mine is probably slightly above average. Will have to go dog for the previous year-on-year stats.

I though my bikehub plus subscription kept me off this second list?!

I thought you were a Bikehub premium member?

I wonder how many premium members there are?

The forums have undergone a number of changes in recent times. Partly in an attempt to focus the conversation on cycling. We've seen a significant drop in certain measures as a result but (from our observations at least) a noticeable increase in quality.

@Nick what happened to the top posters in each thread?
It used to show the number of posts, per thread, for top 3-4 Hubbers; just above the last post.
The avatar and number of posts for each thread.

It's still a thing, but will only show on threads with enough data (>= 3 pages of posts). 

Should display below the first post on any page.

We're on it! It was on the list for this year, but slipped in the push to go live.

Spoiler alert: It's worse than last year. 🤬
