   UKRAM Report for Week No. 41 20160920-26   
      
      
   Executive Summary   
      
   The group continues to decline after the enthusiasm of the first few   
   days. The current rate of posting is now a small and decreasing fraction   
   of that initial rate. The group's busiest week was more than 6 months   
   ago. The longest thread to date started and finished a few days later in   
   the month that also saw the last 100+ posts in a reporting 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.
