Last Week's Most Active Threads

Today I'll look back at the threads with the most engagement during the entire last week. As can be expected, several of the top threads were also daily leaders and, therefore, covered in earlier posts in this series. The two leaders in numbers of replies were the thread about the "bike lobby" and the thread about Taylor Swift. I won't go into them again but you can read earlier posts below if you are interested. The thread with the third highest number of replies during the week was titled, "What annoys you about your neighborhood?" in the "Real Estate" forum. I haven't read the thread, but it managed 15 pages of replies during the week. My lack of interest was apparently not representative of DCUM's users however because the thread led in the number of views for the week.

Not surprisingly, two Hurricane Ian threads were among the threads with the most engagement during the week. One, titled, "do you feel bad for wealthy people that buy/build houses in places like Sanibel and lose them" was posted in the "Off-Topic" forum. The second was titled, "Are We Talking about Hurricane Ian?" is in the new "Environment, Weather, and Green Living" forum. There were a number of other threads related to Ian that didn't make the top in views or replies, but the hurricane was probably the most active topic overall this week.

It seems like posters have been predicting a drop in area home prices for the last several years. This trend has heated up recently with a single poster starting new threads every few days on topics related to potential price drops. One that appears to have been started by a different poster was titled, "How much do you expect home prices to falter in the DMV, realistically?" was among the threads with the most views over the past week. However, the thread wasn't in the top 10 in number of replies.
