   UKRAM Report for Week No. 38 20160830-0905   
      
      
   Executive Summary   
      
   The group continues its slow decline after the early enthusiasm. The   
   first 100 messages were posted at five times the current rate. The   
   group's busiest week was now 6 months ago, with the longest thread to   
   date started and finished a few days later. Mid March saw the last   
    >100-post period. It has now seen its first week in which no new   
   threads appeared. Gaps of days between posts have become commonplace.   
   Fewer people are posting fewer messages. Contributors from social media   
   spamming and a so-called 'call to action' have failed to appear.
