I disagree, I don't consider hype as positive and I don't consider actual facts that depict the current status as being negative.
I will say that your numbers do reflect the amount of edig related posts and off topic, 80% off topic and 20% on topic.
The board would be much better off with only edig related topics.
Next, we have too many hub leaders, many with a large number of violations.
Cut the leaders down to 5, and limit the number of posts to 10 daily.
