forum growth
« on: June 07, 2007, 07:56:20 AM »
Just an idle observation: Click on "More Stats" at the bottom of the main forum page here and then scroll to the bottom.

Check out the growth these forums have seen in just 8 months.

We went from 1382 new messages in November '06 to 3781 new messages last month.

Meaningless posts like these contribute greatly.  YAY!  :clap:

I wonder how much growth can be attributed to the Virtual Console.  :-k

Best Statistic = Average Intelligent and Germane Posts Per Day: 0.00082.  This post did not increase that average, and that word doesn't mean 'pertaining to Jackson'.

There was a huge growth from like 2005 to 2006, Aaron posted the statistics in some thread. Before 2005, these forums were pretty slow.

It's obviously been more active as of late. I've been far too active myself, I need to stop posting so much here. For myself, but more importantly for you guys. :o

Me too.

As a matter of fact, that very same page gives us all sorts of useful information. The primary offenders of spending too much time here: runinruder (does he have a life?  :wink:), thumpin_termis, Necromancer, Keranu, Tron, Black_Tiger, yours truly, td741 (who the f*ck is this guy? for someone who never posts he sure spends a whole hell of a lot of time here), Seldane, and last and very much least Kitsunexus.

Stats are so much fun! Whee!

Sometimes I take breaks from this site, but I am a moderator and must dedicate every second of my life to these forums.

Haha, I never even noticed that td741 guy.

Hmmm... I don't spend that much time on this forum.  I'm just stay logged in all day while I spend the day looking at porn working.  It's all right with me if Robert Garcia's butler lurks in the shadows of pcenginefx.

I wouldn't be surprised if TG16 on the Wii Virtual Console has helped these forums develop over the past few months.  I mean, look at the forums now.  There is like 5 people on minimum nowadays.  Not that that's a bad thing, mind you. :)

I'm just glad to see the TG16 back in the VG spotlight once again and bringing over new fans! Viva la Wii! :dance:

Sorry, but I don't see your library card on the books of Ys.  Now, RETURN THEM TO ME!!!

Oh man, I remember who td is now. I just had to look at his profile and see his avatar to remember him. He used to be pretty active a year ago around this time, making a lot of posts in the Turbo forums. I'm sending him a PM to this thread now!
