<h3>CTP Talk frontend utilisation</h3>
In the sections above I have highlighted the posts and comments generated using the CTP tag. These posts and comments could have been entered using many different frontends. When we specifically look at the CTP Talk frontend, 223 posts and comments were published in week 13. 

We had only 6 authors using the CTP Talk frontend of which the Top 3 authors were @amr008.ctp (6 posts), @hirohurl (4 posts) and @slackerman (1 post). 

On the other hand, more comments were created using the frontend. The Top 3 comment posters were @harpreetjanda (80 comments), @jfang003 (49 comments) and @gurseerat (27 comments). 

The two graphs below present the TOP-10 post and comment authors.
