@Sindo???

 

The problem is you very often don't react at all and tolerate some posts by certain users (1 or 2 in particular) who are very disrespectful to other users or some sportsmen, but you tend to delete some posts who are just reaction to this kind of behaviour. That's certainly a thing which should be improved.

Ultimately all you can do is use the ignore button; I certainly don't want to see some vast Facebook-style censorship operation on this or any board.

It can give a view but not 100% representative. More posts don't mean more popularity in some sports if these are negative to towards the specific sport..

Plus it also depends on whether there is a “core” or regular user of this community (who post a lot anyway) who is a fan of a particular, less widely followed sport

Even if the posts are negative (see my sport climbing format comments) it actually shows interest (i.e. how to make things better).

 

It's rather clear women's 3x3 basketball was the least followed sport on TO Men's 3x3 escaped that fate due to a) lack of USA b) bitching about Poland's failure

And here is the comparison from Rio 2016  I've sorted them out by Rio first, so we can make a comparison, what was more popular then. Green means better, red is worse and white is pretty much the same.

Likewise Trampoline gymnastics. The goal for Paris: get over 30 comments In athletics the Barshim/Tamberi/Jacobs gold combo got like 30+ comments in less than 10 minutes

Golf improved nicely, but the biggest winners are obviously sailing, triathlon, BMX and rhythmic gymnastics. Artistic swimming saw a good improvement, too.

 

Rowing and track cycling got somewhat lucky with scheduling. Especially rowing.

 

Football suffered from morning games (European time).
