jhulud Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Out of the 2,245+ registered members on the board, I'm curious to know what percentage are actually active and involved in at least a semi-frequent basis. I'd guess a lot less than 50%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 If you search members by top posters, the last bunch of pages all have members with 0 posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 There's been a few times when we had a huge influx of people registering: - Virgil giving away a test press for MtB - POI by guessing a number - The Ice Nine Kills shitstorm - The anti-AP.net shitstorm...which if I recall was also tied in to Ice Nine as well - The Co-op being announced and shares up for sale But yeah...shitload of people registered and then nothing...

Dont' forget when the co-op shares were sold. Tons of new jacks signed up, then we never heard from most of them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 i signed up like an hour after virgil made these boards and just lurked for over a year posting maybe once a month. there are probably others like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I would guess <150 are semi normal posters. I recognize almost everyone's handle that I see posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmango Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Juan - start an are you active thread. Like..."Are you an active member - Post on this thread." See what happens. Make it a sticky though. Be very interested to know. I would also think that someone could get a list of "online" users very easily. Have something running in the background for a week and log all online users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I'm a man of few words, which is why I don't post often. Or actually, I've got better things to do. Like post on other boards. Edit: Apparently, I'm prominent enough to have someone from here add me on Facebook, though. Whats up with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Juan - start an are you active thread. Like..."Are you an active member - Post on this thread." Would just be a spam thread, though. You can tell if people are active by looking at every other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murakami Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 i got in thanks to the co-op. based on some of the posts, i felt like Public Enemy #1 at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 We April 2008 people are total scumbags though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theambulancereview Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 This has interested me for a while too, but if I never found out it won't be the end of the world for me here, but seriously find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannonball Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I do more lurking than posting but when I finally joined last March I was somewhere around #975. A shit load of people have joined since then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest naytoid Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I don't post much. I should post more, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusbot Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I have randomly gotten 2-3 PMs from people who have 0 posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameisdan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 We April 2008 people are total scumbags though. true. this is when i got in. and i avoided the everything else section for months, i just assumed it was about sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brennan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 i think i looked at the top posters today. i think there's at least 250(could be wrong) with over 900 posts. that seems like a pretty regular poster if you ask me. depending on their registration date, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I have randomly gotten 2-3 PMs from people who have 0 posts. happens to me every so often as well. i'll be honest, i registered and started posting around the time the co-op was announced but lurked long before that.
