To quote a scene from Life of Brian
āYou lucky, lucky bastard. Thatās favoritism that isā.
I havenāt seen a purge since October last year.
We did have one a month back after 2 solid days of non stop building an murdering.
But it happened as soon 17 seconds after the purge window opened and of course, we werenāt online.
Lasted 53 minutes and broke 2 black ice fence foundations.
The purge meter drops way too quick. Shouldnāt drop at all really.
Agree wholeheartedly, be nice if we could actually depend on the Purge to help clean up some of the building spam that occurs from people who just refresh rather than actually playing the game.
I have problems with cleaning. Previously, cleaning was done every 3-4 days. Now it takes a lot more time when performing active activities. 6 days have passed since the last cleaning, but the meter is only half full.
Me too, but perhaps paying the housekeepers a better wage would motivate them to perform their cleaning chores more regularly. 
Sorry, I couldnāt resist! 
And yes, the purge meter seems to clear more quickly than it used to, I suspect the depletion/accumulation rates must have changed.
I would like the cleaning to occur much more often, because I play on the peaceful pve server, and cleaning is the only entertainment, for these purposes I perform many actions in the game, for example, yesterday I built another palace, spending almost 80 thousand fortified bricks , but the counter practically does not increase, it upsets me, I have many ready-made resources and legendary weapons, I also play at least 5 hours every day. I lose interest in the game ((
Mine still goes up and down like a yoyo no matter how much I play or buildā¦ I canāt manage I initiate even one purge. Iām just sitting home alone unloved and unpurged. 
I agree, most of the players on my PvE think Iām crazy for enjoying purges (most of them try to avoid it), but I think theyāre fun! Itās also nice being able to get good crafters from them.
The only way Iāve found of getting them to happen regularly though is just to stay logged in for as many hours as possible so it keeps rising and doesnāt go into reverse. While this hurts nothing on most PC servers (15 simultaneous players is busy for our server), on a busy server (like the unfortunate overcrowding PS4 players are experiencing) this could be detrimental.
Hereās hoping the purge meter gain/loss rates get straightened out so we donāt have to go to such extremes. The cooling fans on my secondary PC would certainly enjoy a rest, Iām sure!
i love purges when they are not located in the graphic or when they happen back to back( got purged twice in 2 hours).
but god my previous purge happened 2 days prior to this one
I canāt help but notice that purges seem to be less bugged or regular at all only when there are less than 15 players connected on the server.
Maybe just a coincidence, but we play regularly on the same server since july 2018 so we had over 50 purges.
Purges are working consistently in single player.
And purges have been somewhat disappointing (not challenging enough) now that Iāve been playing CE for a long time. They were just āfree lootā events.
But I just tried out a mod to change that, āSevere Purge PvEā (and added āDangerous Creatures PvEā for good measure). And it is definitely severe. So far, the waves have been āboss levelā opponents with high-level pets. These purges are a real threat (especially for lower levels when you arenāt very strong yet). Iām loving it! It really adds to the āsurvivalā aspect of the game.

Private server over here:
Itās a common thing for purges to get stuck and reset without the purge meter depleting.
This can lead up to possibly multiple hours even if one clears each wave as soon as the NPCs spawn.
I can just suspect itās the same for officials and possibly solo.
(The core feature of bugs is that some to most of them will never affect everyone.)
Though one bug occurred to me when I checked a location if these NPCs would run up properly -> once I had a ever repeating horn sound from purgeā¦ ouch! 
(Been a few months since that happened, also only happened once.)
The twitter account announced an incoming patch and one of the fixes is purge enemies always being the same.
