The Most Viewed Topics in Modern Time

[Propfam 2,305]

Hi,

Simtropolis is now 17 years old now. There are lots of activities since then, especially during the Golden Age of SimCity 4 between 2009-2013 (and to some extend, to 2015). Old posts are really high in terms of views. But, I only showed topics that are less than 5 years old. So, here it is, the most viewed topics in modern time.

1. Raymond's Newbie ThoughtsGood job, Raymond. This topic is initially intended to share thoughts. But now, it's the most viewed topic in modern Simtropolis and it's only created this year, the year of chaos, uncertainty, and suffering, in real life of course. And, it's the most interactive topic in modern ST. Viewed 49,760 times.
   
    
2. Sharing Plugins Folders - DiscussionArguably the most polarizing topic in modern Simtropolis. This topic starts with how should we share plugins folders. However when they started to discuss licensing, they made the topic polarizing. But, it's a great topic otherwise! The second place of activity in modern ST. Viewed 34,711 times.
   
    
3. The Quest for the Ultimate Plugins FolderHe started by explaining his playing style and then give the list of large number of mods. Surprisingly, this topic only has 52 replies. Viewed 29,274 times.
   
    
4. Cori's Water ShoppeThe list of water mod. So helpful. Again, low interactivity for a reason. Viewed 12,967 times.
   
    
5. Nagara Rimba NusaThis topic is based from the Indonesian government decision to (at the time, though the project is still continued in a slower pace due to this year's funding is used for the pandemic) move the capital away from Jakarta to a new home called Nagara Rimba Nusa. The city is located in the east side of Borneo Island. The aim is to provide civil servant a place to live without worrying flooding, crime, traffic, design inconsistencies, and pollution of Jakarta. This topic is viewed 11,616 times and only has a staggering 2 replies.

That's it for now. Sorry for my words. Thanks.

Nice list!
(I really like statistical stuff.)

On a related note, the Popular Topics index feed might be of interest to look through. That updates in real time for the topics with the most replies, and it is really cool to see Raymond's thread is also atop that list as well. It is such a diary of discovery, and hopefully he returns soon also.

Additional info: Korver's True Earth

"only" has 58,505 views. I expected to be near or above 100K but for now, not yet. (Yes, for now and not yet might be redundant but let's move on). The comment though is 3,079 which is unbeatable. Korver is better off to sell his idea on YouTube aside from Simtropolis and Devotion. If done well, his work will be extremely popular. But, each to their own so I still support Korver whether he has YouTube or not.
